All of our food is trash anyway. You need 7-10 times the amount of produce from stores just to get a single serving of vegetables because microfarming and mass-producing them strips them of nutrients. We have so much high fructose corn syrup in everything, not to mention the dyes and pesticides that are downright illegal in most other places. Did you know that corn from the US isn't even classified as corn by other countries because of how genetically modified it is? Even our "healthy" food is crap, as well as expensive. The only option is to grow your own produce and make your own bread. Otherwise you'll be eating like crap for the rest of your lives unless you can manage to get out of this backwards ass country and go somewhere better.

PSA for Europeans, Americans do try to eat healthy, but our healthy food is expensive and not even that good for us. Then we get stressed/depressed from our work-culture and medical bills and go eat at Burger King to take the hurt away. That's why we're fat.

I basically agree with all youre saying and yet I still encounter plenty of Americans on this site who are convinced that the US is the best country in the world for food. Its crazy.
