South Carolina – 34.1% Obesity Rate
Here is yet another state that offers incredible food to those who seek it out. South Carolina is known for its fried okra, pecan pies, she-crab soup, rich grits, and collard greens. It is not easy to turn them down, but it looks like they are not doing the locals any favor. As a matter of fact, the state is among the ten fattest states in the United States, which is not the sort of thing that you can brag about.

Alaska – 34.2% Obesity Rate
The current obesity rate among adults in Alaska is double that what it had been in 1991. Back then, only 13 percent of residents were considered obese. It is rather shocking to see how much the figure has blown up. According to officials, they put a lot of emphasis on a healthy diet in early education. The theory is that people are becoming heavier because food is not only limited but also expensive.
