WOAH serious.
It seems us Aussies have bitten into too many big macs and have made it to the fattest country in the world.

"with more than 9 million adults now rated as obese"
Ok i know there are fat people in Australia as there is everywhere but i cant say i agree with 9 million. I see fat people basically everyday but not close to 50% of them, i want to know where these fatties are and who gets these stats and where they get them from just doesn't seem right but nevertheless it ain't good.

There is one thing i have to add, i do blame the American style of living as allot (well not that many) of countries including AUS  unfortunately follow after (at least try to) America
