Why are people in the USA so fat?
Samoan Enforcer:
i aint close to being fat, i just see fat people everywhere. what about samoans. do you know what they are? their people are huge
QuietTruth:
I think it gets expensive eating out all the time and yeah even like McDonald's and Burger King. But I guess it depends who's you feeding.
Z the laidback Virus:
I don't know any Samoans, but judging from pics I saw they are very muscled and broadchested, rather then fat.

Most North Americans don`t even take their full vacation time every year, and it`s only 2 weeks. In Europe they get way more. North Americans are so busy with their jobs and careers, that they don`t always have time to cook, and fast food is so cheap, so thats what they eat. Plus there are so many office jobs, that a lot of people are stuck at a desk all day not moving, so they can`t burn calories.
Just my thoughts.

You got a good point.
You get only 2 weeks of vacation in America? In Holland you get 5 weeks vacation per year! And Thats without national holidays.

Most jobs in America, workers can get up to 5-6 weeks of paid vacation too, usually based on how long you work at a certain place. I think it's a driving need to accomplish tasks and make money keeps workers at their desks.
Healthier foods are cheaper, say if you bought the ingredients to make a beef and vegetable stew, but a lot of people just don't have time to cook. And from what I see, most of America finds it hard to make a peanut butter sandwich. They just can't cook. I'm glad I can.
