The problem is that America tends to perfect the foods from other cultures thanks to our mixing pot dynamics. You won't find a better pizza than pic related in Italy, for example

You can go to dollar tree and there are shelves and shelves full of boxes of pastries, chocolates and chips all for $1.25 plus tax

Americans don't perfect anything, they essentially fill their foods with drugs to make them hyper palatable, that's all

Hating on fast food is a firstie phenomena. Millions of 5'2 minimum wage pinoy men will kill for a bag of fries.

Because it's cheap for first world people whereas poor people think McDonald's think is a suitable reward for children when they got good grades or it's their birthday instead of something you buy when you don't wanna cook

No, they just define their existence with addiction. Their food is basically made to emulate drugs. It hijacks the pleasure centres of your brain to make you consume and crave more of it.

I have a bit more sympathy for burgers after living in California for 6 months. It is actually insane how inconvenient it is to eat healthily over there when there are rest stop and fast food chains everywhere. I know 'walkable cities' is a meme but there is something to be said about being able to walk, pick up groceries, and be home comfortably within an hour. Eating like shit here is something you almost have to consciously decide to do, in America you just feel like that's how you're meant to live, at least it did for me

>hyper-palatable
Yeah in the world of culinary arts that's about as close to perfection as it gets.
