Yes, thanks to americanisation and food imports from the US
That's on you. If you don't want it, don't buy it.
Oh I don´t but most people are too unconscious about what they eat to protect themselves from the food industry, as you might know.
Lol this has to be the silliest take I've seen.
"The Americans made us fat!" Like there's an American sitting behind you with a riot stick, tapping their hand with it menacingly..."eat this shitty food you imported and no one forced you to buy, or else I'll whack you in the head!"
Are seriously calling the idea that introducing dozens of american fast food chains into a society, will increase average body weight and unhealthy eating habits a silly take? Please elaborate how that is a silly take.
It's silly because it has been widely known how terrible the food is for you. Just because a bunch of rich assholes dangle fast food in front of y'all doesn't mean you have to eat it. No one is force feeding you, so stop blaming Joe Schmoe from Arkansas because y'all don't have the self control to consciously eat healthy. If anything, it just proves the opposite of the lazy American stereotype: everyone is lazy given the option to be.
You seem to assume that everyone is always making exclusively conscious decisions about everything. I think you severely overestimate the ability of people to make conscious decisions. Are you not aware that companies have been systematically lying to consumers for decades? That they are using psychology based advertising, to manipulate consumers into buying things that are bad for them? I certainly don´t believe everyone is that smart and conscious about what they are doing all the time.
