When it comes to questions of obesity in North America we always try to compare ourselves to other nations. And see how they can get away with certain habits. You may have heard of the French paradox. They drink wine and eat cheese and stay slim. How can that be? Maybe they just have less garbage in their food.
Now I have heard that the city of Austin, Texas is the fattest city. And most of the blame goes to red meat consumption. So how can the Argentinians eat a lot of beef and not have the same ballooning problems? My guess is that their beef is raised naturally and without extra hormones.
We think we are very intelligent in trying to out smart mother nature. I guess she always has the upper hand.
