They are one of the fattest ethnic groups in the world after Americans. I will list multiple reasons for that in points :
1. Carb heavy vegetarian diet. It's not impossible to stay lean on a veg diet but Indians don't even try.
2. Replacing millets with wheat. Indians ate wheat only after 1900s.
3. Add lots of oil, spices and curry in food.
4. Snacking is a bad indian habit. Indian snacks are usually carb loaded fried in oils
5. Genetics. Brits kept Indians starved and gave them famines.
6. Popularity of American foods like Pizza and burger after 1990s.
7. Fat children are considered a sign of prosperity.
8. Our men like their women thick and chubby. Face and skin color matters 90% unless she is obese.
9. Lack of body shaming culture.
10. Indians don't do household chores. They hire some poor for such chores.
