I’d be curious to see their obesity rates, as well. The USA has an enormously toxic relationship with food. Sugar is innately addictive and we’ve subsidized its production with the federal corn subsidy, which is part of the reason high fructose corn syrup is in practically everything. I’d be surprised if Cubans were anywhere near as physically unhealthy as the average American.
I’ve been to Cuba and I gotta admit that Cubans were generally pretty skinny. The only few overweight people I’ve seen were mostly older people in their 50’s-60’s.
