We have this bizarre situation that has never happened before in history where the poorest are the most likely to be obese. Super cheap fattening foods, less physical labor, more non-physical entertainment options, public social assistance all contribute. It’s one of the reasons I doubt that there can ever be any sort of sustained civil unrest in the near future. The poor might not be healthy, but they are sure well fed. Hard to picture them going through the hardship sustained civil rests would bring.

Supposedly the average woman now weighs 166lbs+, roughly what the average man weighed in 1960. Pretty amazing stuff if true.

Kids are fat since it is no longer safe for them to play outside. When I was a kid, many many moons ago, we’d roam for miles around. Just be home by dark if you can. Even when I lived in the city we’d grab our weapons and walk across town to the countryside to hunt. Try that now!
