Libs are wacky as hell but there are a LOT of fat conservatives running around. Go to a Baptist church and behold the splendor. I went to a single events once and the gals were pushing 300 pounds plus. Almost all of them.
Obesity is getting ridiculous though. In this country you can eat until you can barely move then go on disability and make your neighbor pay for your chow and lifestyle. That's just wrong, the government has become enablers.
No, its corporate America and Food Inc. that is making Americans fat. Nobody cooks anymore. Everything is convenience foods, just heat and eat.
The pre-prepared foods are loaded with fat and sugar and chemicals. Added to which, children no longer have physical education at school every day. We had a double class of phys ed every single day in high school. It was mandatory. Now it's a single class and it's optional.
When I retired, I went back to cooking everything I ate from scratch. Nothing preprepared. I'm even baking my own bread and making salad dressings. So far, I've lost 20 pounds, and I'm doing a lot of baking to stop losing weight.
There is a school of thought that says that our bodies weren't designed to process chemicals and preservatives so when the food is bound with chemicals we don't digest efficiently, we store it as fat.
Children don't go out to play either. They sit in front of screens to play. We went outside and ran around playing sports, tag, hide and seek, every night until dark.
It all adds up to a fat country.
