Mexico has the top obesity rate of developed nations, then US, then Australia and Canada in a dead heat for third. But if Scotland was The most obese country in the world is Tonga, though, and the next few are other small Polynesian nations.

BARONS CYBER SKULL posted:Americans complain about dry sandwiches but refuse to butter the bread first it's LIKE I'M LIVING IN A CUCKOO CLOCK! One of my most disappointing food experiences as a child was when I went to New York and my first meal was at a classic diner. I ordered a turkey sandwich and it was like, two inches of the driest most tasteless turkey in the world with one lettuce leaf. Nothing else. I really hope that wasn't representative but holy poo poo was that awful. edit: worse was that I was in New York for the opening week of Star Wars Episode 1 (I was invited by a very generous friend and his family)

Post Your Controversial Favourite Food Thread On-topic, we have a sensitivity dog food at work that's labelled as chicken and rice, and by God does it smell good when you haven't eaten in hours. It looks like dog vomit however, so I am not inclined to taste test.

I lived on roll n bacon when I worked in the Partick morrisons foor a year. I put on like a stone and a half despite working a pretty physcial job. E: that was some anti-food-porn that job. Never learn how square sausage is made if you ever want to eat it again. That being said, I have since eaten square sausage. One of the butchers I worked with used to fry black pudding on the clingfilm heat sealers in the mornings.

Data Graham posted:It's so ridiculous. The way Atkins works (and it does, with caveats) is by cutting out ALL carbs, like absolute zero, which is the only thing that triggers the bodyhack. Just reducing your carb intake by like 30% or whatever doesn't do a drat thing except make you more annoying to eat with. Carb-counting can be helpful if you're trying to lose weight, if only because doing it correctly means you get hyper-aware of your portions, portion sizes, and food recommendations, and you can regulate that poo poo tightly. Source: Had the diabeetus for eight months, controlled it via diet and exercise under medical supervision. Anyone who's an annoying rear end in a top hat about it can go jump, though.

Re:Butter Americans really need to discover the secrets arts of salted butter/Beurre demi-sel, and how to spread that into a thin layer in bread/baguettes for sandwiches. Hell you can even add a little mayonnaise (not the cholesterol-satured white kind) for flavor if you want. Just don't make the layers 1cm thick

Want to know what an "American style" sandwich is? You go into any deli or supermarket or bodega that has a Boar's Head type counter. You tell the guy what kind of bread you want and what to put on it. He makes it and gives it to you. Or, y'know, go to Subway.

"herbed" pork/chicken cutlet that has been burned chasing the maillard dream without understanding the chemistry behind it, mashed potatoes with what looks like mushrooms, probably contains enough garlic to kill the entirety of twilight, and green beans green enough to let me know they came out of a quick steamer bag from the frozen section. If the person actually could make green beans like that, they wouldn't have been such a fuckup with the rest. e: yeah that's definitely over-cooked porkchops you can see the bone
