    If the percentage of overweight and obese Mexican shoppers at my local Mexican grocery store here are any indication, they passed us. They sure do love their tortillas, lard, sweets and sugary soda. And some of the most morbidly obese children I've ever seen.

    CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

    I blame twinkie for taking away our title. But by God I will bring us back to our former fatty glory!
    I saw a billboard in Mexico this past weekend, near the border crossing, that had a big picture of a sad guy. It said (in Spanish), "Twinkies -- now only in Mexico. 314 million Americans lost what they loved most. Let's help them through this."

    Never fear.............Twinkies will be back on the shelves next week with a longer shelf life. <BARF>

    I wonder if it is because a lot of the Mexicans that came to America to work went back? (not racist)

    Not worth celebrating until we're off that list :-/

    lol HIMYM?

    Also, as far as the mexicans go, they must not be eating the resort food, it was awful by everyone I've talked to at the resort and has been there standards:p Tried to get some of the local stuff but it's hard to order when nobody speaks english. Wasn't sure what they had or what was good or how to tell them what I wanted.

    Lol it's not even because Americans are losing weight. The numbers are staying the same, it's just that other countries are starting to surpass us!!
