I said MOST not all. I believe there are only three countries larger than the USA on the planet and two of those have a much smaller population.
I’m also guessing that MOST of the people around the world perpetuating the narrative of the fat and stupid “super size” American don’t live in a country where it takes four days to drive from one side to the other. The UK was mentioned earlier in the thread. Hard to compare the culture and driving needs in England (about the size of Alabama) to the entire USA. Yes, I know that there’s more to the UK than just England, so you don’t have to split that hair too.
