How do you explain France (high-fat diet, average amount of plant consumption, lowest rates of heart disease) and Mexico (diet heavily reliant on rice, beans and other plants, yet the world leader in obesity)?

How do I explain a completely made-up, non-scientific, anecdotal conjecture you've just thought up? What you're saying is ridiculous.
Both of these things are not just google'able, they're wikipedia'able.
