Although Americans and Mexicans are the two most obese nations in the world, a study by Credit Suisse shows that they do not eat fatty foods most often. The ranking of the biggest fans of fat is headed by the Spaniards.
The study also lists the other 20 nations around the world that consume the most fat foods.
After Spain, where 45% of the population eats something fatty regularly, second place in the ranking is Australia with 42% loyal fans of fatty foods.
Samoa, France, Cyprus, Bermuda, Hungary, Polynesia, Austria and Switzerland have 41% of the population who regularly consume fat.
In the United States and Italy, the people who eat the most fatty foods are 40% of the country's population. They are followed by Canada, Iceland, Greece, Belgium and Norway with 39%.
At the bottom of the negative ranking are the Czech Republic and Sweden with 38% of people who often eat something fatty.
However, this is not the case when it comes to the most obese nations in the world, and according to researchers, this is due to the fact that the amount of fat intake does not always affect weight.
In the western world, it is believed that fats make you fat. But body fat doesn't just depend on how much fat we eat, say the study's authors.
Of these countries, only Spaniards and Australians are the nations that regularly appear in the rankings of nations with the highest percentage of obese and overweight people.
Researchers are adamant that fatty foods, like sweets, cause a feeling of pleasure and this makes a person want extra food.
The dopamine that our body releases while eating something fatty is the main culprit that can make us addicted to fatty foods. The effect is the same as that of opiates.
