Oh Americans…

It’s bad enough that you lead the world in not exercising (see yesterday’s GUTS post here), but this just takes everything to the next level.

Retailer 7-11 has started placing new vending machines in its stores. For a small price, customers can enjoy a piping-hot bucket of… mashed potatoes. With gravy. And a soda to wash it all down, natch.

So, our slow, methodical, country-wide slog to obesity and diabetes continues. What’s next, cheeseburger toothpaste? Chocolate flavored salad dressing? We can’t wait to find out.
