It's hard to visualise because a lot of Coloradans who look obese are actually big boned. You can't slim down bone.

Is that a South Park joke? The whole not fat just big boned Cartman running gag?

Yeah, sorry. Funny though that the obesity rate in colorado is almost exactly 25% - South Park was often very accurate!

Oof, the only one I got wrong was the "tax" one. I figured more Democratic states would have higher taxes, so I tried literally every Democratic state except one of the most obvious ones, New York.

I didn't expect Hawaii to be low in obesity.

It's mostly due to the ethnic makeup of the state, with Asians being the highest percentage of the population, and African-Americans being a very small percentage. Native Hawaiians are quite likely to be obese, but only comprise 9.9% of the population.

I live in Hawaii and I got like 10. Some were really easy but others like Colorado were hard. I never knew there were states with less obesity rates than us.
