    Hmm, now I’m afraid to know what the most American individual would be. Sugar? Oil from deep fried foods? It’s probably simpler to just go based on BMI.

      Well,

      A) logically someone has done the most X in Y so long as one person did X one time there. Like, not only would there also be someone in the US who drank the most tea, there’s also someone in the UK who shit the most this year too, and the US would have their own most-shitter, and then the most-shitter in the entire world may be one of those two guys, or they may be the most-shitter from China or even Luxembourg. Same for “playing volleyball” or “stubbing your toe,” ad nauseum.

      B) In the US the real question isn’t sugar but HFCS, we barely have real sugar here unfortunately due to a revenue generating scheme dating back to like the 50s or some shit.
