Super Size Me

 Recently i watched the documentary "Super Size Me". It was really interesting and my favorite fun fact i learned was that Mississippi is currently the fatest state where 1 in 4 people are obese YUCK!. I started thinking about my perception of Americans. Are the majority of Americans i see on a daily obese? I feel like we don't even notice overweight people any more. They just blend in, they don't stick out and being different because so many people are obese these days it almost seems natural. The number of overweight people in America is rising and this means that when i have children they are at an even larger risk for being overweight. How do we resolve this problem? I suggest going back to our roots...the traditional meals where the mother (or father) cooks a healthy dinner at home. Nothing deep fried and nothing take out. All natural made inside the home. People didn't used to be overweight until we built all the fast food chains and made ding dongs and Twinkies a staple. Lets take a step back and go back to the traditional way of eating. Family style!
