 Who's number one? At number two, the country with the largest average bowel movements, Denmark, India, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, Tonga, an island in the South Pacific, the UK, or the US of A. Remember the target minimum fecal output is 200 grams a day, about half a pound. And the winner of the Bowls of the Earth Contest was Tonga at 531. The only other country to make the 200 target was India, who gets the silver at 311, with individual measurements ranging up to 1,505 grams. That's more than three pounds a day. That's impressive. And the bronze goes to Japan. At 195, almost made the cut-off. Everyone else fell short, though with the smallest stools in the world colored red, white, and blue. US vegetarians fared better, though, as did vegetarian and especially vegan brits. There actually was one population that did even worse than the standard American diet. The smallest average population bowel movement size ever recorded New Yorkers. That's less than three ounces a day, instead of just living there if only they would actually eat a big apple once in a while. On the other end of the spectrum, though, what are they eating in Tonga? Well, this was recorded decades ago when they were still eating their traditional plant-based diet of taro, greens, sweet potatoes, fruit, more greens, bananas, cabbage, etc. Now, tragically, the most frequently consumed food item in the country is imported chicken parts. And this is what happened. From one of the healthiest nations in the world to one of the most obese, thanks in part to the westernization of their diets.
