Evolution, American-Style.
Michigan may not know fudge about building cars anymore, but a Lansing culinary professor just produced the world’s largest slab of fudge, 5,500 pounds. On second thought, that‘s exactly how Michigan bulds cars. The world’s largest fudge bar still weights 1800 pounds less than a 2009 Cadillac Escalade.
In other weighty news, Michigan ranks No. 2 in the senior division of the annual Fattest States ranking, with the second highest percentage of obese 55- to 64-year-olds, 36%.
Coincidence?
