Need Help. Can anyone tell me why does America have a problem with obesity? Because in America, we love to eat and there are tons of good food, snacks, gooey sweet deserts, and fattening fast foods! We are always on the go, and love to make quick stops at convenience stores for things like, ice cold pops, ice creams, candy, donuts, snack cakes, candy bars, fudge bars, hot buttered pop corn, custards, cupcakes, potato chips, pretzels, cheese curls, pork rinds, beef jerkies,whip cream toppings, fruit pies etc., not to mention we all love lots of fast foods, take out pizzas, hamburgers, chicken dinners, the list can go on and on, and we all like to eat at restaurants, after our meals, we fill up on cookies, cakes, snacks and fattening deserts! At home when we don't have time to cook, we pop pre-packaged meals in our oven or micro waves, such as: TV dinners, casseroles, pizzas, tacos, fish sticks, etc. We have many kinds of meals that come frozen and all we do is pop them in an oven or micro- wave. America IS the land of plenty of food, so I guess we just all love to eat! It is mostly do to the junk food and fast food.. high in Sugars high in Fats and because they are now taking alot of good stuff out of the grain before it's ever even put in food ...Less nutrition. throw in tons of corn syrup sugar and it all equal's fatbutt syndrome. America is going thru a social decline. Mom no longer cooks for the family everynite so people go for convience foods. Even when they go to the grocery store..And I'm sorry to say this but all the food manufacture's are concerned with is profit...not nutrirtion is that bedder? i'm a slow typist with fat fingers. Fast food and fast cars. The type of food we eat in this country. Fast food and convienance lead people to eat poorly. its true some people are just too fat. im one of them. Several things in my opinion. 1) A culture of immediate gratification. If we want it, we buy it. End of story. 2) Terrible urban planning and public transportation. You have to drive a mile to buy a loaf of bread. 3) Television and the XBox. We're teaching our kids to camp out on the sofa every afternoon after school lets out, when they should be out running around. 4) The sheer abundance of cheap food. Up to the 1950s, many of the worst public health problems in this country were caused by malnutritiion. Now it's because of overreating. Nobody walks and the fast food places use fake food to make it cheaper which makes us malnutriconed. |
