John Bull: the original Fat Brit.
A comparatively recent phenomenon, the Fat Brit now seems to be an established part of the social scene. Does fast food have any bearing on this?
Fat children are particularly worrying.

Actually, this was probably the original Fat Brit:

Friar Tuck
Hence the English school 'Tuck Shop'?

Re: Shocking news about fat Americans
Fat Americans......part of it could be attributed to all the many medications we are convinced (by doctors & TV) that we need.....the side effect that doesn't get mentioned (weight gain).
Plus eating "food" which has been processed and altered to the point of having little nutritional value.

If you consume more calories than you expend, you gain weight. It's not medicine that's making you fat, it's too much food and too little exercise.

Re: Shocking news about fat Americans
I heard somewhere the fattest are the mexicans, I suppose this is expressed for number of overweighted ones and not fat per capita
because they drink many sugared drinks
