The Japanese media’s somewhat excessive coverage of Metabolic Syndrome — the phenomenon formerly known as getting fat — has presumably played a huge part in pharmacies being full of suspiciously effective fat-fighting supplements, big companies bullying their staff into battling the bulge and even government ministers bravely baring their midriffs. Plus, anyone carrying even the most meagre amount of extra meat is now rather meanly marked as ‘metabo’.
However, for those not embarrassed about their bulging bellies, and at the same time brazenly prepared to say bollocks to such badgering, what better way to embrace the fact than by having it beautifully emblazoned?

Not a shock. You can eat all that fatty, greasy, nasty Americanized food and not pay a price.
Why do you think Americans all look like doughy tubs of pasty goo???
