Coming from Europe & Asia, the amount of crap fed in America is just crazy: like “is that for ONE person?” (more like an entire table of 4) since what is considered “normal” is just beyond what my stomach can handle, whenever I see their portion sizes: it makes me puke. (No wonder why they have a higher rate of obesity…)

    Food is relatively cheap in the USA compared to other countries. You also had a lot of immigrant waves come to the USA, find that food was so cheap, and celebrated by creating larger meals.

      Uh no, sorry, it is MUCH cheaper in Europe for food. Groceries, Restaurants, food kiosks, everything over there was cheaper than here. Made with more real food too. We’re getting scammed here.
