Surely governments should Ban supersizing to decrease the load of obesity related diseases on the health care system.

Also I wonder why obesity has affected North America and the UK the most yet other european countries seem not to be affected even though there is increased financial abundance?

I would say that it is because UK has adopted American fastfood and soda abuse more than other places. But then places like Greece being iso high is confusing

i read the stat that 1 in 3 children is overweight so that atleast is not just a US and UK issue now..looks like next gen in each country is going down the path that US took first and Uk second
