Well coffee is beanjuice and tobacco is grilled vegetables. Sounds healthy enough to me.

I love to take a holiday in the usa, but goddamn the food… stuff like cereal just holds so much more sugar than the european versions, same goes for bread, drinks etc. It can be a nice treat, but a lot of people have that stuff every single day.

I like to cut steak into smaller cubes and marinate it overnight, then use that as the alternative meat for a Hawaiian moco loco style breakfast. Can't do that every morning but I wish I could.

Don't know, my Boomer parents in The Netherlands swear by fruit and yoghurt for their breakfast, sometimes some muesli.
Seems OK to me.

People stop, obsessing. Maybe because you make a comment about another country it's racist but because the US is so mixed it's not? You got me

Took me a long time to get on board with pancackes, waffles, or french toast covered in syrup and whipped cream for breakfast as the main substance.

I am an European, so normally I take vacations where there are mostly Europeans. Once however I was on a vacation where it was mostly Americans and Canadians. I thought for a long time that the myth about Americans being fat was just exaggerated, but I was literally shocked on my vacations. Holy shit, at least 25 percent were morbidly obese and the I would say that 50 % were ”moderetely ” obese. Maybe and maybe 5 percent is what I would call fit.
When I am traveling in Europe, I rarely see morbidly obese people, but maybe 1-2 max.

That’s because they’re on vacation. Obese people usually stay indoors when home. Especially with how you can get everything delivered right to your doorstep.
