Why don’t Americans give a f*** about what they eat?

On the contrary, when I go out for dinner in France the food will be healthy.
When I grab a sandwich in France it will be healthy and not made out of highly processed bread with a ton of sugar in it. |

I feel like that PP is probably OP. |

Much like OP, you seem to be out of touch with logic. |

Give it a rest, OP. You can’t just eat whatever you want in France and magically stay thin. |

Yeah, I made bad choices. When I moved here I didn’t know that the food could be “bad”. In my country you gained weight if you ate too many sweets. I didn’t know that restaurant food could be processed junk filled with chemicals. They didn’t put chemicals in food in my country. I didn’t know food in USA was a minefield and you have to watch every step.
My friend’s daughter, 11, almost died last summer from undiagnosed diabetes. No one even considered it, the girl is thin as a model and ate a normal American kid diet. Most of pre diabetics don’t even know they have it unless you check for it specifically. |

You’ve been so brainwashed by “freedumb” propaganda from the American press that you don’t even have any idea what is being talked about, do you? So sad. Go live in another country for a year. |

I have lived in several other countries. For more than a year. But thanks for trying. The “American press” isn’t making you fat. Try again. I think you’re just not very bright, OP. |

If you are truly surrounded by unhealthy foods with no healthy options within driving distance then you really should move. None of my friends or acquaintances in the dmv area have these problems. We know how to find healthy food whether we are eating out or at home. This is a problem with a solution. |

Have you been outside dmv? Have you been South or Midwest? |

This is a weird stereotype that there’s just no healthy food in the south or Midwest. |

| Op, you have to exercise and make better food choices. People around you will eat poorly and not exercise. You must look out for your own health and nutrition. Don’t let your diabetes progress. |

Why are you expecting to eat healthy restaurant food? That’s one of the fundamental food issues in this country. People want to eat convenience food or restaurant food instead of cooking. That automatically ups the salt, fat and sugar intake. Most restaurants do offer something healthy on the menu, but who wants to order steamed vegetables when you could have French fries? |

Have you been to small towns in the Midwest or South? Healthy living is not an option |
