It bothers me how unhealthy the american family eats. Look at all the fruits and vegetables eveyone else is eating! I bet americans wouldn't buy so much food if we ate healthy, filling food in the first place. We'd probably use less resources too.
Holy cow... that family from chad... how do they survive?
And I agree the Americans don't look too healthy, they need some carrots :)
