NiHaoMike is getting it! That's where I was going with this thread. I'm not advocating weightloss for the purpose of saving the environment because that is all a very shakey science right now. I'm saying that it would save resources and help the economy by letting people spend money on something besides gasoline. It would also help the healthcare industry by eliminating large numbers of obesity related disease cases.
As far as the obesity as wealth goes, there is such an abundance of food in most places in the world that the idea of showing off your wealth through weight doesn't apply. I'm sure in a place like Somalia it would be desirable to be heavier. Here in the States however, it shows that you're irresponsible.
Blueflame, I don't know what they put in the veggies there in NZ but wow....
