Sign of our (fat) times



New post on Fellowship of the Minds

Sign of our (fat) times

by Dr. Eowyn

So what does a toilet for fatties look like?

Here's a regular toilet

And here's a toilet for the obese:

H/t Armstrong & Getty

At the rate we're going, in 18 years, by the year 2030, more than 4 of every 10 (42%) Americans may become obese and 11% could be severely obese, adding billions of dollars to health care costs. That means 32 million more obese Americans within two decades, on top of the almost 78 million people (1 out of every 3 Americans or 36% of the total U.S. population) who were already obese in 2010.

For more on what "obesity" means and how it is measured, go here!
