I think that North Americans eat more meat than any other country because we have a lot of farmland for animals and we are a free country, so we have a choice wether to eat meat or not.

We like to think bigger is better in society and we tend to think that food is a good thing and that we should eat it all of the time. It can be a good thing, however, I think we all need to work on actually knowing the real portion sizes.
