Frank Bruni, the author of this article, recently wrote a book called "Born Round. The Secret History of a full time eater." This book is a memoir about him and how he was born "with a big stomach" and how he was raised influenced his eating.
This is an interesting concept. Isn't this mostly an issue in America because of all the fast food restaurants, due to the families financial issues. Studies show that if the children do not start improving their eating habits that all of America will be obese and not healthy, so it is our generation to change that.
