                                To give a serious, somewhat informed reply, the impression I get based on inference of both communication over time with foreigners and things I've read, a cultural quirk has formed resulting in Americans eating a lot, on average. I'm quite confident that it has much more to do with food quantity, rather than foreigners generally eating more calorie-dense foods. I haven't gotten the impression that exercise has anything to do with it, either. From one source, I gathered that Americans are thought of as going for "big" things; a good analogy to Americans might be that Texas compared to the rest of us might be like us compared to many other countries. That's my educated guess that lead to the cultural quirk of American over-eating.

                                  Food is so cheap and there's always deals on buying bulk. Also obesity is tolerated a lot more than it used to be.

                                    I think that it's because we work too much, leaving little time for the preparation of healthy home-cooked meals. Fast food, delivery, frozen, and microwaveable entrees are thrown at us from all angles, at such low prices. These dishes can pack 1000+ calories. You can go to a restaurant and easily consume 3000 calories from the appetizer, main course, dessert, and of course, your beverages.

                                    Over time, as our stomachs and waistlines begin to bulge, it takes more food to satiate our hunger. Thus the snowball effect.

                                        I wish that Timeout Tavern would start selling chili dogs. I don't wanna go all the way over to la sabana to Mac's to get one. Oh well, at least hipermas and pricesmart finally sell corndogs now.

                                          You need to be big in the US to fit into their cloths. Nothing is made for the average sized person. Have you been to McDonalds? They don't ask you if you want a small they ask you if you want to get upgraded to the large. It is assumed you are fat enough to eat it all.

                                                        Americans? It's most of the world that lives like that. Take a look at the list of fat countries. You'll find most of the 1st world countries on that list. You'll also find plenty of 3rd world countries as well.
