1. Palau
Obesity: 47.1%
Diabetes: 20.9%
Rank: 34
While the cuisines of all of these countries are heavily influenced by surrounding cultures, Palauans seem to take it to the next level. Probably why their obesity and diabetes rates are so much higher than other countries with the worst food, unhealthiest cuisines in the world. A lot of these countries have two or three different cultures that have made an impression on their own cuisine. Palau, on the other hand, has a little bit of it all! With influences from the US, Japan, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, you’re sure to find something to tickle your fancy here. And restaurants ranging from sushi and sashimi bars to Italian dining are big here. It is also not uncommon to see BBQ sauce. On everything! Of course, Palauans have pretty much everything that these other countries have: fish, rice, taro, coconut, Fruitbat soup—wait! Fruitbat soup? There’s one I haven’t seen anywhere else! It is exactly what it sounds like: a whole Fruitbat in some broth. What makes up the broth? Coconut, of course!
