And BTW includes most of the EU as well.

Countries like the US includes the EU too, at a lower level but still over 50% are supposedly overweight. [1]

These stats were made before the EU's most obese country left the union ;)

If you look at obesity level per country, the most populous country in the EU is on rank 79 of 191, not far from the middle of the table, while the US is on rank 12, with mostly micro nations above it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_obesity...

Obesity is increasing in most EU countries. Give them a few years and they'll eventually catch up to the US and UK.
