[quote=Anonymous]I was curious if anyone else has noticed this trend among first world eaters who are being bombarded with information from "experts" who either come from the East or the third world. I know Americans are obese. However, it's mostly from pre-packaged food and fast food. If Americans would cut back on the pre-packaged and refined carbs in food and cut back on the drive-through and 7-11 foods, and eat more nutritious food, then they we wouldn't be obese as a country.

What I've noticed is Americans who readily accept that Eastern cultures and traditions or those from third world countries are better (and smarter) than us. Are we blindly starting to follow down a path where we no longer enjoy the richness of Western traditions, such as delicious liqueur, cakes and pies and cookies and other desserts? We shouldn't enjoy BBQ ribs and a cold brew? I won't be giving up any of that food. It's really all about moderation.

I don't want to eat food with intermittent fasting from rice bowl to rice bowl just because some one thinks that Eastern and ancient civilization cultures are smarter than Westerners. No thank you. [/quote]
