Bloody Hell, look at the amount of meat the Aussies are scoffing! I thought the T-Rex was extinct! :D

We're pretty good in our household. We don't really eat crisps, chocolate bars or biscuits as a matter of course.

The kids also eat a very varied diet, especially compared to some of their friends who will only eat sausages or chicken nuggets. eg: Lots of salads with oily fish etc etc.

Look at all that German beer! I do like a tasty bottle of Weiss beer. :D

The Americans are the worst offenders of the group. The third world countries appear to have a healthier diet.

I don't know...if we generalized a trend from what we saw it would almost seem like Mexico should have a higher incidence of diabetes than the U.S., Germans would soon be extinct due to liver failure and the Poles would one day evolve into some vegan Eloi-folk in the far flung future.

I almost chose Mexico, because of the sodas, but at least they had a lot of fruit and vegetables. It was close between Mexico and USA. I thought the South and Central American countries had most natural and healthiest diets. I was impressed with some of the Asian countries, too.

Very interesting, thanks for posting Aces.

I'm not sure how representative that is of the "average" diet of these places, but it's still an interesting view nonetheless. ;)
