I believe its raising in many country's weight per person because of junk food often cheaper than cooking healthy meals. Health food is more expensive here.
We are not on that list though. It should not be like that. They want a healthier
world they need to change that.Like (1)

OMG! But look at the top 7. People from those regions are enormous and for the US to be lumped with them it says a lot. Though I gotta say I'm surprised to see Kuwait and UAE on the list but it makes sense seeing their diets consist of mostly canned and frozen foods.
