Detroit somehow fell from third fattest to No. 15?
And this is the best — Milwaukee No. 5 on the fittest list? Are you kidding me? You ever been to Wisconsin? There are porkers galore over there. They even beat out Michigan (barely) for the title of "fattest state" in most surveys.
This survey simply has zero credibility.

... Baltimore isnt fit whatsoever.... and I can guarantee that San Diego isnt fat... Ive been there and have yet to see ONE fat person... where I have to look no farther than 10feet in any direction in Michigan to see someone over 200lbs. YOu literally have to be 6'3 for 200lbs to make you healthy.

I just moved to the chicago area and there's a restaurant on every corner, and the food is very good there. you actually have to have a reservation to get into most downtown restaurants. everywhere you go you'll fing a restaurant. my favorite is a mexican joint that serves soul food. the best rib tips i've ever tasted. they also have a fast food joint called "portillos". this place is better than most sit down joints
