Now since we are blaming all and sundry for rising food prices across the world, why not include everyone’s whipping boy, the fat people? In a letter published Friday in the medical journal Lancet, two scientists write that obese people are disproportionately responsible for high food prices and greenhouse gas emissions because they consume 18% more food energy due to their greater body mass — and require increased quantities of fuel to transport themselves and the food they eat [source]. Hey, we managed to blame them for global warming as well. Al Gore is responsible too, you see.
