@chris_e_simpson Of course I'm not saying US americans are often weird because their local cuisine is, uhm... bad. It's merely one piece of an enormous puzzle. π

 @chris_e_simpson @Natanox very interesting on the sugar and also completely logical. οΏΌ Financial stress is also a major factor in decision-making and can lead to very poor long-term decisions. οΏΌ Itβs not necessarily the case that being stupid makes you poor, but it is certainly true that being poor makes you make stupid decisions. @Natanox @chris_e_simpson I mean, it's not like people are choosing to live in food deserts. (spoiler food deserts exist because of capitalism, it is deemed unprofitable to properly feed those communities) |
@Natanox Oh I could talk for hours about this stuff (been studying it for 3 years). Humans are very bad at resisting calories or, in fact, any short term gain, even if they "know" there is a long term loss but we are way worse at this when we are in "scarcity" mode. So poverty makes everything worse.
