Well, not EVERYONE, but most Americans.

Fighting the mainstream culture of huge portions and high calorie junk food is a daily battle, especially for low income people with a limited food budget.

From Reuters:

“The new projections, published in the journal Obesity, are based on government survey data collected between the 1970s and 2004.

If the trends of those years continue, the researchers estimate that 86 percent of American adults will be overweight by 2030, with an obesity rate of 51 percent. By 2048, all U.S. adults could be at least mildly overweight.”
