If there actually is any correlation, maybe it's because in countries where people 'spend longer eating' there is a better focus on eating good quality food (rather than any direct correlation e.g. wolfing down food means you are more likely to put it on as weight). I lived in Geneva for a while and we would always take at least a one hour lunch. There is hardly anywhere to get 'fast food', even in the city centre. And I certainly notice less 'heffers' there than when I am back in the UK.
