* According to 2010 World Heath Organization estimates.

BMI = Body Mass Index, a simplistic measure of obesity. A BMI over 30 is considered obese. A BMI over 25 is considered overweight.

To make sure we all understand the true nature of obesity as a development disease, you shouldn't have given us all the islands from the Pacific and Indian oceans.

"To make sure we all understand the true nature of obesity as a development disease, you shouldn't have given us all the islands from the Pacific and Indian oceans."...Um, it's a quiz...not a sociology lesson

The only 3 I got were USA, Australia and New Zealand. I would never have guessed Mexico and I had no idea that South Americans were fatties. I was leaning more toward Europe..

The Cook Islands and Niue arn't countries and since the title of this quiz is "Fattest COUNTRIES" they should be removed or have the quiz title changed to "Fattest Countries/Territories".
Quizmaster replies:
Can't believe I made that mistake. Removed. Thanks!

13/20 Considering the news over here is always telling us we're almost as bad as America when it comes to obesity in the UK I was really surprised we weren't on there. And as we're (supposedly) the worst in Europe I knew not to bother guessing any other European countries. I knew Mexico was pretty bad because of the high fat content in Mexican food so I guessed the rest of Latin America followed suit. Mongolia was definitely surprising.

You don't really see too many skinny geezers in the Vatican either... they just sit on their bums all day long!!

I throw the BS flag on this. Where I live (in the states), I dont see that many fat people. Ive also been to some other countries, that arent on this list, and seen plenty of lards. Where do they get these numbers from, noone weighed me

Most of the comments about Americans being too fat come from Americans. We have a habit of berating ourselves and apologizing to the rest of the world for being free and living the way we want.

BMI is total bulls*** anyway. The only variables are height and weight. It assumes that everyone has the same dimensions and the same amount of muscle for any given height, so a 6 foot tall bodybuilder that weighs 225 lbs is considered obese.
