Thread: Why are Americans so big (not fat)?

I think Americans and North Americans seem a lot taller and broader than the average European. My friend thinks this is to do with eating beef. But he says eating chickens turn you into a big jesse! I don't know.

No they arent thats bullshit :P (Source WIKIPEDIA)

U.S. 1.776 m (5 ft 10 in) 1.632 m (5 ft 4 1⁄2 in) 1.09 All Americans, 20–29
U.S. 1.763 m (5 ft 9 1⁄2 in) 1.622 m (5 ft 4 in) 1.09 All Americans, 20+
U.S. 1.780 m (5 ft 10 in) 1.632 m (5 ft 4 1⁄2 in) 1.09 Black Americans,
U.S. 1.706 m (5 ft 7 in) 1.587 m (5 ft 2 1⁄2 in) 1.07 Mexican Americans,
U.S. 1.789 m (5 ft 10 1⁄2 in) 1.648 m (5 ft 5 in) 1.09 White Americans,
