Healthier eating habits make for less obesity

In an article in the Washington Post the writer, Jennifer LaRue, talks about her recent trip to Europe and specifically Italy. She found that the attitude there toward food, and more specifically how it is consumed (portion size, fresh v. premade, etc.) seems to play an important part in the amount of obesity in the society. Since more than 75% of the US is considered obese and less than HALF of Italians are, maybe this is something WE should look at in the US???
