[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not in OP's head.  Food quality is better in Europe, period.  Go find all the posts from people who went to Europe on vacation, ate a ton, and still lost weight.  It's not just the walking -- it's the food.

It does not matter how much you spend here or whether you buy all organic, you can't buy your way out of our messed up food system.  My relatives own a "certified organic" farm and talk about how pesticides and hybridized seeds blow in from neighboring farms all the time.[/quote]

First, I have no issues with dairy here in the US or in Europe, which I have either lived in or visited intermittently for the past 30+ years. I was born and raised in a dairy state in the US. I LOVE cheese, yogurt etc. I don't drink milk but use it in my coffee. I have no problem whipping up a chowder using milk. US farms rarely use hormones anymore and there are plentiful organic/grassfed/etc etc options. The problem I run into with dairy is if it's very low fat/high sugar - that is what gives me gas. Full fat, no problem.

Please stop the fantasy that Europeans don't eat processed foods. There is SO MUCH convenience food in France, Belgium, the Netherlands which is where I have lived/visit family that MOST PEOPLE CONSUME. The milk alone is so processed it has a shelf life of years! Of course, there like here you can find high quality foods if you're willing to pay more.  Have you wondered if when you are on vacation and are willing to find and pay for higher quality, artisanal foods? [/quote]
