Americans Live Shorter

"Adults in the United States have one of the highest obesity rates in the world. Nearly a third of U.S. adults 20 years and older are obese, while about two-thirds are overweight, according to the National Center for Health Statistics"

That reminds me I am hungry.

me too my mother didnt give me any money for lunch today. lunch is preety exspensive nowadays

I already ate some eggs.

all there is around here is theese shitty penut butter cracker things i'm at work

who would have thunk it! eating unhealthy food and sitting around makes you fat!

Americans have shorter lifespans because they have such poor grammar. They try to order a healthy salad, but the request is so grammatically poor that it's not understood and they end up with a quadruple burger and fries.

apparently we arent the only fat asses....

this kinda shit pisses me off.

yeah, burgers and fries dont help, but i think the problem lies more so in video games and computers nd kids not wanting to work (yeah, not always the case, but its became cool to be lazy)

"but bu7t but, the japanese people are amongst the healthiest in the world, and the LOVE video games" < and dont think about giving me some shit like this.

japan, is a fucking island, very small in comparison to the united states. being surrounded by oceans on all sides what do you think the commonly eat??? FISH (low, if any...fat. far better for ya than burgers) what does some dude in the middle of some buttfuck texas dessert town got to eat...BEEEF!

ronald mcdonald has nothing to do with it (even though i admit, he doesnt help matters much). inactivty is to blame.

A common misconception is that the majpr part of the Japanese diet is fish, i.e. sashimi or sushi

Its actually a small part of the japanese diet, beef forms a larger part

Japan also has its own version of Macdonalds. Mossbergers

I can highly recommend a Japanese restaurant in London called Donzoko in Kingly St behind Regent St

Its itzakaya style so very informal and cheap

Its one of the few restaurants run and staffed by Japanese people and they dont mind helping you out with the menu

It also has a great sake cellar

and here i am , with no solution .
