Sheldon is partly right. Obesity rates tend to be based on the
percentage of people who fit the definition of obesity. The ten nations
in the world with the highest obesity rates are in the south Pacific.
Right behind them is Kuwait, and then the USA is number 12. Canada is 26
and Australia is right behind us just a slight percentage less.

When it comes to the heaviest people Wikipedia's list of the world's
heaviest people has 30 people on it, 1 in Egypt, 1 in Australia, 1 in
Saudi Arabia, 4 from Mexico and the rest are all in the US.

We have lots of obese people here in southern Ontario, but when I cross
the border in western NY state I see a lot a drastic difference in the
number of obese people, but I also see people who are way, way fatter
than any I see here. Curiously, they are often much dressed. Apparently
there are so many really fat people that there is a market for the much
larger sizes.
