You guys said what I was going to say

This turning-sugar-into-fat is considered an adaptation to store fat in fall to draw upon during the lean months of winter. Bears and chipmunks do it; we just don't hibernate.

As such, I consider it a gene that would be more active closer to the poles of the Earth than the equator, and in my random noticing, I see that.

I went to my brother's wedding in Rio de Janeiro, and these are petite folks (I look like Attack of the 50 Foot Woman in the wedding photos) who can dance all night on a diet that is 80% starch.
