Americans are the fattest people in the industrialized world, while Koreans are the slimmest. There are many reasons for this, but one huge factor is diet.

Portion size served in restaurants in Korea is anywhere between half to two-thirds of portion size in America.

Now, American government seems to have taken notice, which is a good news.
