This is my (mostly uninformed) belief. Living in Asia, I learned that what I thought of as full in the US is stuffed. There, I would eat a tasty meal at a reasonable pace, and get up feeling neutral to full. Here, I eat in kind of a ravenous rush in which I overeat before I realize it.
My guess is that it's the amount of sugar, salt, and fat in Western food.
- sharpshadow 2y agoIt might not even be Western but US specific. I’ve heard a similar story of somebody having the same diet in the US and in EU but got weight in the US while staying the same in EU.
- soco 2y agoI might be the naive in the room by saying no it's not all western food like that. At least not here, or at least not in any restaurants I've been. But I'm not in the US and also don't go to fast food restaurants, so yeah might be wrong.
