India calls out US as nation of fat asses.

MY version of IHT article. yes, no copying.

thoughts: New Dehli is pissed, because we are pointing fingers at their rising middle class for causing the recent, semi-debilitating food shortages.

India is pointing it's finger right back: saying that Americans need to re-think their conspicuous over-consumption of energy AND food.

fact: americans eat FIFTY PERCENT more calories than indians.
holy crap thats a lot of food. [said Pradeep Mehta, the secretary general of CUTS Center for International Trade, Economics and Environment]
quote: If Americans were to slim down to even the middle-class weight in India, "many hungry people in sub-Saharan Africa would find food on their plates," Mehta said. The money Americans spend on liposuction to get rid of their excess fat could be funneled to famine victims instead, he added.


SMACKED IN THE FACE.
