  • I have never been to America, but my husband used to live there and I was really shocked to hear how cheap fast food is, how prolific it is, and how massive the portions are. I know the world loves to take shots at the average American for being fat, but you can hardly blame people when the place is geared towards to overeating massive portions of unhealthy food without even having to get out of vehicle. I think the rest of the world would be just as likely to be fat if they were put in the same situation.

    • I read an article where a photographer photographed kids around the world and what their daily intake of food was. For the kid in india, they said that a whole healthy meal , fruit, nuts, veggies, even meat, just cost them $3 a day, but to buy a pizza hut pizza was $15, which most families can not afford. Its no wonder we’re so fat when butter and deep fried grease is like $1.99

    • Portions are huge at restaurants unless you go to one of those upscale rich people restaurants where the portions are tiny. I assume thats how all restaurants are in europe. Usually you can go to a restaurant by yourself and spend $12 on lunch and you have enough left over for dinner. But where they get ya is the tips. You gotta pay the waiter. So its not really even cheaper unless u get it to go.
