America is a bunch a fat lazy mother fuckers with more fucking excuses at to why nothing is their fault than there are grains of sand on Earth.
Does the Shanghai Noodle Factory happen to reside in these United States?
Why yes, yes it does... :smile:
Don't hate on her.....
This is definately a lot of the problem.
I went to the US before and the medium chips and drinks were the size of the large ones back home. Plus everything seemed to be greasier. I also noted it tasted worse for some reason.
There is nothing greasier in the world than your Chippies over there (chips, gravy, etc.)
Last time I was in Canada, there were as many fat asses up there as there were down here in the US.
Obesity is a world epidemic, not just an American one.
You haven't lived until you've eaten the beer battered chips sold at the local Chippie.
So crisp with an almost tempura type, lighter than air batter. Fluffy, creamy, steaming potato on the inside.
Gods.....now I'm hungry!

Yes there are plenty of fat people in the UK... BUT I have never seen so many fat people as I have in the US, especially the large proportion of very fat people or super obese...
Look I'm all about eating healthy. i try to do it myself but look at it. Shopping at Food Basic between shopping at Stop&Shop and between shopping at Pathmart. Pathmart will always have the cheapest foods while food basic charges $14 for a freaking pineapple.
For some people there is no choice about eating healthier because they just can't afford it.
One gallon of whole milk will cost less than one gallon of silk milk. Silk milk is healthier but there are some who need to pinch every penny.
My Ex boyfriend who i went out with during grade school had no money for food. he barely ate at home cause there was no food. he would have about $1 every three days. he would buy cheap junk food and 25 cent soda bottles. And he was really cute but now he gained so much weight. Its not always a choice people.
that is one thing.
Another thing people have to get used to smaller portions. America's motto is the bigger the better and it's clearly not working. That is something the we have control over but for someone who had grown up with big portions, its really hard to cut your diet in half. What if you made $100,000 and the next year you only made $50,000 You would not be so happy. You have to view food the same way.
Not everything has an excuses, but you have to understand the entire situation before you can criticize other people.
Also before i forget, another reason America is becoming over weight, is the advances in Technology. Also everything is Automatic. You don't even have to hang out with your friends to talk to them. You can buy everything online! including groceries now.
The sad part is the if public school did not have to cut their budgets for athletics, more kids would be involved in sports.
The way i see it, everything is connected in one way or another.
i hope that makes sense cause my mind is going a mile a minute and Its hard to type down all the ideas that are pouring from my head.
Regardless of where you live in the world or what fast food restaurants are available there is a secret to keeping healthy that the purveyors of fast food would prefer you not to know:
"You don't have to eat it"
I lived in the UK, and Chippies are no "treat": a lot of people eat there every day (who are you fooling?).
I've never seen as many drunks in my life as I've seen in the UK.:biggrin1:
