The was essentially eating himself to death. He is described as an example of how too much fat can cripple the body.
The two cultures do not have different views on obesity necessarily. The Mauritanian video did not talk about obesity. When it had shots of women in the city walking, they were fat but by no…

Chocolate: Behind Its Bad Rap In today's society, chocolate is everywhere. It seems that people have developed a love-hate relationship with chocolate. According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, in 1997, the average American ate 11.7 pounds of chocolate.

While Americans consume, on average,
