Not a big surprise. But why do you think the south seems to be worse?

Discuss!

    Have yet to eat good pizza in the south, which makes your statement invalid. Sorry.

    "Other countries call us Americans fat and stupid... So we kick their *kitten* at the Olympics and put a robot on Mars!"

    Seriously, though, looks to me like the obesity rate started rising right about at the onset of HFCS and Monsanto robo-food. Along with wages COMPLETELY stagnating, necessitating 2-income families and less time for activities. Just sayin'...
