re: New OECD study shows that Obesity is based on culture, not affordability of food

quote:

According to that map, of the 5 thinnest states, 2 are republican, 2 are democrat, and 1 is a swing state.

NY, washington, Minnesota, VT, and NJ all have similar obesity rates to Idaho, WY, AZ.

Blue states (before trump at least) like MI, WI, PA, and Maine all are among the most obese.

The deep south is obese because of culture.

Only 2 democrat? I think you need to make better use of your fingers to count. Lets see the 10 thinnest states.

are Colorado --> swing, but swinging more to Democrats.
Hawaii --> Democrat
Montana --> Republican, but really small population
California --> Democrat
Massachussetts --> Democrat
Utah --> Republican
New York --> Democrat
Vermont --> Democrat
Connecticut --> Democrat
New Jersey --> Democrat
Rhode Island --> Democrat


By my count that's 7 Democratic states, 2 Republican, 1 swing.
