Ah thanks Morose but its a long time ago now. I think you guys are very hard on yourselves re obesity in the US. I am from Ireland and believe me our diets are nothing to write home about, in fact there are increasing and alarming stats about rising obesity levels here and in the UK too. I don't think it's a blanket western thing though. Diets in Spain/France etc I.e mediteranian diets are certainly better and def Japan seems to be King! I recall recent stats where they said 1 in 3 UK/Irish people will develop some type of cancer in their lifetime, that figure is around 1 in 1000 in places like Japan - scary! I know I too fall into the trap of eating too much crap and think it's ok because I'm slim. Please excuse spelling, am on dreadful mobile device. Oh I too now only eat brown rice/pasta/occasional brown bread only, am on a mission to ban the white. Sadly can't seem to knock my once weekly Mc'Ds on the head - thanks for bringing us that lol
