in the United States

MensFitness
magazine recently wrote an article about America's infactuation
with fast food stating that "nearly 50 cents
of every dollar spent on food in America is spent in fast-food
restaurants." And of course fast-food is loaded
with lots of saturated fat and refined sugar which are major
contributors to obesity.
