Yes, Food. I spent a couple of years in California and I miss it very much. However, the one thing that I would not have been able to work around, if I were to make my home there, is the food. Not that it tastes bad, but that it is bad, and there is no escaping from that food chain, and its long term effects on health, compounded generation by generation. I now live in a supposedly poor EU country - of course there are problems, but everyone is smart and healthy. It is the food. Adopt EU food regulations now.
- scarejunba 7y agoHmm, California's obese plus overweight is 69%, significantly more but not quite the picture you're drawing in comparison to France's 60%.
- Djvacto 7y agoFor what it's worth, the parent comment didn't explicitly mention weight, and health has a lot to do with nutrition, and I would imagine they were commenting on that as well.
- scarejunba 7y agoRight but 100% of overweight people are unhealthy. So clearly that can't be right that EU food regulations are ensuring good health. I guess they could be saying that among the remaining third of the population, the Californians are still unhealthy even if not overweight while the French are healthy. Seems unlikely to be true, though.
