Japan also had a culturally acceptable level of body shaming. We also really only get to see a well curated selection of the population. I'm sure nip land has fat folks, they just only let them out on special occasions.
Culture of shaming makes a huge difference. We used to shame fatties and whores. Now they are idolized. Now they are everywhere.

3% overweight in Japan vs 30+ % in the US
I'm not really disagreeing with you that more Americans are fat than japs. There are also more Americans than japs in totality. I'm just pointing out that there is more to it than just diet. I mean you could argue that Japan must be a miserable place because their suicide rate is higher than ours. It's not quite as simple as we want it to be. I do think Americans could do a better job of promoting a healthier lifestyle, but I'd rather let people decide for themselves what they want.
Oh I totally agree with the fat shaming culture. It has been normalized here and it shouldn't be.
Im certain more Americans commit suicide than Japs. Plus there is the point to be made that japs dont have BLM taking over their cities too
They also walk a lot more.
The things you can do in cities when you have no niggers.
except for sumo
Sumo eat tons of food and go to bed. All of it turns to fat. I saw the movie too. ;)
