Fat Land
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fat Land: How Americans Became the Fattest People in the World is a non-fiction book written by Greg Critser describing how 60% of Americans came to be overweight, and exploring the relationship between the relentless rise of the fast food corporations and increasing portion sizes in the American diet, along with misguided government policies and poor nutritional education in schools. It covers much the same subject matter as Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation.
