By this I don't mean all Americans, just a lot of Americans. I know some Americans who are very health-conscious and exercise etc. But America is the junk-food capital of the world, and unfortunately we're going that way because this country likes to imitate Hollywood. Not that I think there is anything wrong with Burger King etc, I go there occasionally (though not to MacDonalds as they have no vegetarian options i.e. put beef extract in their fries) but some people eat there and like food too many times, which makes them fat.

I also know people who are fat who eat well, so I'm not saying all big people eat junk food. But I do think the traditional American diet is not good for health. Neither is the British, really, not if you had the traditional every day i.e. fried bacon, eggs, tomatoes, bread everyday for breakfast. People are eating too much saturated fat.

My problem is getting enough fat, lol. I've never been able to keep weight on. I've had as much stick over being thin as someone can get over being fat, so I wouldn't insult big people. I know it hurts, and that there's often nothing we can do about it. But for those who eat high-fat foods and lots of meat, they could do something about it that would help them.
