Which culture in your opinion by default has the most unhealthy food? Whether it be from how they prepare it or just in general? I have a lot of friends from Latin America and Puerto Rico and hoooly fuck the food is good to me BUT its like all fried. Like why is everything fried or involves a ton of oil etc. What the fuck is going on? Why is frying things so prominent in certain cultures? Again, love the food, tastes pretty good but its definitely some calorie dense stuff.
Obviously ameriBRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP
Probably one of the island nations in the South Pacific.
most likely india once you take into account how much feces they indirectly add to it.
Was gonna say China due to the gutter oil and parasite ridden creatures that get sold as meat.
I’ll never be able to forget the video of some chink dipping live mice in soy and chili sauce before chomping it to death.
Mexico.
I mean does frying things inherently make it unhealthy? Don't people fry eggs in a pan all the time to make omelets and stuff? Isn't that frying?
i think OP meant deep frying
That’s with butter not canola oil. Totally different impact.
Wait so which is bad for you? butter or canola oil? What about olive oil? I am so lost when it comes to butters and oils and fats and stuff
The latest rw meme is that "seed oils" are bad for you. When you ask them why, they'll tell you it's because they're "not natural", which means nothing, or because of "inflammation". How and why they cause inflammation, they never specify.
If you ask them to specify on a physical, biological level what the seed oils are doing to you that's bad, they won't be able to, because they don't have a working model of nutrition they're drawing these conclusions from, it's just an in-group meme. It's not like
>tobacco smoke gives you cancer by irritating and breaking down the cells of your lungs and throat, causing them to regenerate more frequently and therefore increasing the risk that a cell will divide out of control into cancer
Or
>lead in the water supply decreases IQ, because countries that replaced their lead pipes experienced a 5 point IQ bump in the cohort horn directly afterward
The first argument has a causal mechanism, the second has supporting evidence. The sneed oil haters have neither, just memes.
you seem biased and seething and it takes away from any truth
>doesn't produce an argument based on anything but his circlejerk
See? The sneed oils meme is retarded. They don't even attempt to produce any evidence.

>most unhealthy
probably those isolated aleutian clans out in the north pacific who live on fermented seal fat and airdropped skol and coca cola. i worked out there for a while and the natives were a fucking mess, they all had black rotting teeth, fucked up skin, diabetes and decreased mental function from malnutrition and alcoholism. babies would have seizures and shit. one of the beach crew made 'aleutian green salad' for dinner and it was just canned peas and mayonnaise.
What alcohol brands are for sale in those isolated islands and villages in Alaska?
listerine or the generic thereof
pretty much whatever you can get stateside but at a like 300% markup. people make hooch out of whatever they can, too, like canned peaches, corn, peas, greenbeans, boxes of cereal, its fucking disgusting
Middle eastern baklava is pastry dough, butter, nuts, butter, pastry dough, butter, pastry dough, butter, pastry dough, butter, pastry dough, butter, pastry dough, butter, pastry dough, butter, baked and then drowned in boiling hot butter and sugar.
At least american deep fried food only deep fries it once or twice, and it's usually not soaked in butter 15 times before it's fried.
It’s Tonga and it’s not even close. A good Tongan breakfast is hollowing out a loaf of white bread, filling it with Fanta and ice cream, and eating the whole thing with a spoon. And that’s just a light breakfast for one. There’s a bunch of documentaries on Tongans and their diet on yootoob, it’s fucking grim.
>It’s Tonga
I just started down a rabbit hole of shit about Tonga and honestly I could have comfortably lived my life not knowing this country existed.
They’re fucked, man. They would absolutely still be eating each other if they hadn’t been partially civilized. Please forgive the unfortunate racist implications of using the word civilized, I’m not trying to be racist.
Chinese food culture literally caused a world-wide pandemic, so let's go with them.
>he actually believes it was a bat and not a bio research lab
the rare case when the racist answer is not redpilled
it was a bat they were keeping in a lab like mewtwo
Indian food is just a carb, sugar, fat explosion in every bite by the time you introduce naan and rice and all the cream in the curries. I csnt imagine a more unhealthy cuisine...but to be fair you see a lot of overweight people in India but not the morbidly obese like you see in America
Ireland in 1850.
Black Americans. Rural white Americans eat a similar amount of candy, snack cakes, cookies, etc. But Walmart-shoppers can get normal food if they so choose, whereas inner city black people can only shop at weird little bodegas that stock imported UN grain and ancient canned food.
If we're talking about a COOKING culture, rather than just a shopping one, then probably British food. Tons of sugar in tea, biscuits, etc. Americans traditionally reserved sweets for special occasions, though that's no longer the case. But sweets and trans-fats are the only things that are bad for you. Dietary fat causing heart disease is just a lie, invented from 1 study by fanatics in the 70s and imported into the American psyche by grain industry lobbyists when the food pyramid was created in the 80s. There's a Revisionist History or Radiolab episode about it, from before they got TDS.
>whereas inner city black people can only shop at weird little bodegas that stock imported UN grain and ancient canned food.
This is a fucking lie that black people tell everyone because they have a pathological need to blame wypipo for their shortcomings and a lot of wypipo who didn’t grow up in the same situation as black poor inner city project dwellers believe it. Black people cook everything with ungodly amounts of sugar, fat, and salt. That’s literally where the seasoning meme comes from.
>t. grew up poor in the inner city projects around black people. somehow no one in my family suffered from diet related illness
I lived in little Haiti in Brooklyn for a few months a couple years back. The only grocery store walkable to me was 2 to 3 times as expensive as grocery stores back home in the Midwest. More expensive even than groceries in Boston were I am now. The city govt of NYC refuses to allow large chains like Walmart to come in and out the small places out of business, and building permits are so hard to get that small places can just name their price. All the other food stores within a 30 minute walk from my apartment were full of weird imported low-grade canned goods and rice that I didn't think Americans even ate. It might be better in other towns, but where I lived it seemed like a serious problem.
So maybe black people should prioritize spending money on real food instead of buying the cheapest, unhealthiest processed shit they can so they have more money to spend on frivolous material goods. Staying fly ain’t cheap. It’s a lifestyle choice many of them make to prioritize everything else over health and wellness.
Mexico. Last we heard, the US, UK and Mexico are in a 3-way tie for fattest of fatties. The US can be discarded due to being full of Mexicans. So, that boils it down to 2. UK and MX. Instinct tells us that Mexicans are plain fatties. So fat that the national average jumps by 800% just by you existing. In short, Mexico has the unhealthiest diet. It tastes good, but it's not good for you.

This.
>most unhealthy food?
food is not healthy or unhealthy. food provides nutrition. eating habits are healthy or unhealthy.
It might be India just because of how carb heavy it is, and after that than a pacific island like Samoa, then the classic like American
Worst food health wise is the new generation southern american food. Southern food used to be good but industrialization ruined it.

Israel, seed oils like canola and sunflower seeds is used in everything, because using butter with anything non-dairy isnt kosher so people already used to use seed oils even when frying/cooking eggs or dairy, also butter gives you le heart attack or something
