Being married to a former coleratura soprano who was compared to Jenny Lind by her teachers, the explanation of why opera singers tend to get oversized is simple. The do not dare eat before a performance, but after it is over - wow! Plus if you eat late then retire for the night it tends to muck up your digestion.
The explanation for obesety in America is MSG (also know as Hydrolized vegetable protein) it is overused especially in fast foods and reportedly even in Starbucks coffee. It is addictive and make people eat more. Don't hold your breath waiting for the government to ban it.
