One could have that misconception because of italian cuisine (pastas, pizzas, charcuterie, cheeses etc) but actually the obesity rate in Italy is comparatively low, and one can see that on the streets, we don't see much fat people in Italy. It's maybe because of the quality of the products they eat (which is very high) and less exposure to americanised fast food.

They indeed have the highest rate of obesity in the US
In France i think they are generally not that fat, at least the men. Although women tend to already have that bibendum look often seen in Aframs.Non-Hispanic Black adults (49.9%) had the highest age-adjusted prevalence of obesity, followed by Hispanic adults (45.6%), non-Hispanic White adults (41.4%) and non-Hispanic Asian adults (16.1%).
The US obesity prevalence was 41.9% in 2017 – March 2020. (NHANES, 2021)
From 1999 –2000 through 2017 –March 2020, US obesity prevalence increased from 30.5% to 41.9%. During the same time, the prevalence of severe obesity increased from 4.7% to 9.2%. (NHANES, 2021)
I think it goes a bit beyond that, more about food habits at home. Sweden has as much Mcdo per capita than France, they are not that fat either. Here Mcdo and other type of fast foods are seen as canteens by MENA and SSA.

Judging by those figures, it is Asian-Americans who are very much the outliers, not Aframs.
Are you seriously saying that most users of McDonald's in France are SSAs and MENAs? Maybe in Paris and Marseille that might be the case, but the country as a whole?I think it goes a bit beyond that, more about food habits at home. Sweden has as much Mcdo per capita than France, they are not that fat either. Here Mcdo and other type of fast foods are seen as canteens by MENA and SSA.

Yes basically living in the US increases you rate of obesity by +10% or so if we go by UK and Japan.
It's definetly the majority everywhere unless very isolated places with no diversity. in Paris/Marseille you ll often see a McDo with not a single white person in it. I think it's Notacop who noticed that when he was here too. French usually see fast food as a one off thing once in a while, not a regular place to stop for eating.

Czech food isn't very healthy and at least in my family it was common to eat until the point of feeling sick. Plus all of the beer consumption. It tracks. I'm nothing like these niggas though
Don't take anything on the internet too seriously. Look: 🐓🚗. The chicken is bigger than the car. None of this is real. And people who have arguments on the internet are losers.

It should be noted that people like these are classified as "morbidly obese": https://height-weight-chart.com/502-220.html

Is there a reason why Spain has a higher obesity rate than Italy?
I thought they were pretty similar but apparently they aren't.
