Fat Tuesday

With Mexico fast closing in on the USA's "Fattest Nation on Earth" title - and Querétaro pulling its weight (if you will) more than most states - we note with pride a recent study by the Autonomous University of Querétaro showing 41% of the city's children to be either "overweight" (21%) or "obese" (20%). A mere 2 percent - small enough to be within the survey's margin or error - are classified as "underweight."

Are you listening, Mississippi?
