We love our food here in Jersey. Why wouldn’t we?  We are the land of carbs with the best pizza in America. I’m not just saying that, we were crowned as having the best pizza in the U.S.A. It's easy to pack on the pounds here when your nonna yells “Mangia!” at every Sunday dinner.  So how are we really doing in New Jersey weightwise?

I was curious, how overweight are we in New Jersey?  Maybe more of us are running off those carbs than I realize.  A survey just came out of the most obese states and you might be surprised where New Jersey is on the list. Here is the research from WalletHub from the most obese to the fittest.
