Yes I think that is obvious. But I also think the main reason is why the eat less calories is because they have a healtier culture where eating less calories is simply easier.

If I drive my car to the city where my parents live, the only real options I have on the way are fast foods that are very unhealthy.

If I go to the store, we have sections of candy and sodas but buying an ice tea is hard.

If I go out for dinner most options are unhealthy etc etc.

Our culture is eating bread and other wheat products that are filled with calories and also have an agriculture that uses pesticides like 5-10 times a year.
