Actually redneck wives are usually fat because they are at home BAKING a lot...not because they buy chips and hot pockets all day. I should know I grew up on a 8k acre ranch in Idaho. I grew up making Banana Bread almost weekly...and every summer all my mormon brothers and sisters would make baked goods for the open class portion of the county fair . Not only that but the cheapest food is not junk food, that is a HUGE common misconception which is why people on food stamps go for a $2-3 bag of chips only because it appears bigger and is more filling because of the crap in it. People buy junk food because it makes them feel good and makes them feel full and they THINK its cheaper and its not if you consider the health comparison to $2-3 in apples and oranges. I dont think obesity is a disease, I think the effects of obesity are diseases but obesity itself, for the most part, is a choice. Some people are definitely more inclined to be obese because of genetics and therefore they are going to work twice as hard as someone as me who comes from a family of bean poles....lol But my aunt and uncle are very heavy, my dad has diabetes, and my redneck parents are now alot heavier than they used to be...so who knows maybe i'll hit 30 and realize I am one of those "have to work harder than others"! America is getting heavier when other countries really arent...its a social thing. There are a ton of factors...
