This entire thread is based on an initial misconception. You can pick and choose many of the arguments posted in the thread and actually have a good list of many variables that explain why minorities have a greater tendency to health problems in general.

You're so polite. lol!

I think the 600lb gorilla in the room that a lot are choosing to ignore is that the entire OP has racist undertones.

If anyone bothered to pull up some non-cherry picked information, they'd probably find that obesity is closely related to socio-economic status moreso than race. 

This. And also culture more than race. Although it's a fact that some food intolerances are more spread amongst some races, but normally undiagnosed food intolerances take the subjects to denutrition and/or malnutrition, not obesity, and also some diseases, but those related to denutrition and malnutrition, not obesity.
