I don't know about Europe because as far as I know they're getting fatter also, I work at Mcdonalds and I'll tell you right now it's America's problem with drinks. Women think getting a diet coke will let them have a 2 big macs and a large fry, of course they bring their children and they get their fatty foods, or maybe their parents get them the 'healthy' apples, which are just remnents of the original fruit, coverd with preservatives and sugar, with carmel dipping sauce handed to the children. They're all horrible people there, especially the select few who know about our triple cheeseburgers and grilled cheese because they must of come an awful lot to know about the secret items....
