I was in Copenhagen earlier this year and I commented to my wife and our friends multiple times on how there were just no obese people anywhere. You Scandinavians are obviously doing something right.
- toxik 8y agoSome do, especially in bigger cities. Rural and suburban Sweden for example is getting obese at an alarming rate. But don't worry, the tax payers can foot that bill too I guess.
- jernfrost 8y agoA lot of that comes down to much stronger belief in government regulation and initiative. In the US it seems there is an outrage every time somebody suggests some kind of regulation to promote health and welfare. I suspect that outrage is partly manufactured by the sugar and junk food industry though. Copenhagen is also very active in getting people to bike in town instead of driving.
