Coco Pops blamed for Bermuda's obesity

damn that monkey mad

Bermuda is blaming Coco Pops for its rise up the world obesity table.

The Caribbean island is now the fourth fattest country in the world, according to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development.

Bermuda's health coordinator Jennifer Attride-Stirling told The Royal Gazette newspaper: "Many people have a massive bowl of Coco Pops for breakfast every day.

"The reason they buy that might be because it's two for the price of one. How can we move them away from that behaviour? We have to see the motives behind their behaviour - a lot of it is cultural."

And she added: "The true picture could be even worse as latest stats show 23% of islanders are obese and a further 38% overweight. A very large proportion of people are putting on a few pounds every year."
It's a mess, ain't it, sheriff?
If it ain't, it'll do till the mess gets here
