"The obesity epidemic is driven by people eating too much, but why are people eating more?"
Er, could it be that the "people" they are talking about are only from developed countries??? Do you think it may have more to do with better economies, readily available processed calorie dense food, the 'convenience' lifestyle, and doing less physical work?
Ask a subsistence farmer in Africa why he isn't fat - no disposable income, physical jobs to do all day, and no fast food joints.
Yet another red herring to blame - eat less and *better*, and exercise more... Remember also, that they can show that you are more likely to drown in the vicinity of an ice cream shop, but don't blame the ice cream without thinking this one through!!!
