No offence intended but it´s old news to the world that a lot of Americans consume horrible trash food and drinks every day until they become morbidly obese and worse. It´s in fact one of the most commonly known stereotypes about the USA. So there is really nothing on the picture a euro mind could not comprehend, more like the contrary.
You haven’t really lived though until you’ve survived at least one heart attack and live with debt collectors at your back for all the medical debt you’ve incurred. THIS is the real American dream. Also diabetes.
Obesity rates in Europe are catching up. Especially in Britain. California is leaner than most of Europe. It’s definitely not all skinny in Europe and all fatties in USA. It’s regional.
This appears to be a Casey’s gas station. Caseys is known for having pretty decent pizza and being in every tiny town dotted across America (plus being open very late/early if not 24 hours). By memory the pizza is priced at $3-4 per slice. Sure you can buy a $3 frozen Jacks pizza but it won’t be as good.
It’s worth remembering that fountain sodas cost next to nothing for businesses. It’s just flavoring syrup, water and a big bottle of CO2 to carbonate the water packaged up in a semi-automated self-serve machine
I’ve never been given free water anywhere in the EU and I’ve been to a large number of the countries. You are high as fuck if you think they aren’t charging for water. One of the many reasons I hate Western Europe, but certainly not the only one.
It’s funny how you think all pizza in the US is from Pizza Hut.
You do know the US food culture and depth of quality dwarfs whatever country you are from, right? That’s the problem with so many Europeans. They don’t understand the size of the US. You can’t grasp the fact that just one of our fifty states can be more diverse than your entire country. Even the largest EU member is smaller than Texas, just one of the states.
Idk, maybe that most of the western food supply is owned by a select few conglomerates that have an interest in getting you to buy a ton of product and make it as addictive as possible? That’s my guess.

Behold, the Euroslave, uncomprehending of what real freedom looks like.
I bet they would object to all the unnecessary preservatives that enhance the flavor, too.
/S
I had to add the /s because there are clearly people that don’t understand humorous statements around here. Six of them at the moment.
Real freedom is dying of a heart attack at 30

Live fast die hard 🦅
I automatically downvote any comment with /s because it shows the person doesn’t understand how sarcasm works.
Ok. /s
That is a reasonable attitude. /s

“Catching up” in the same sense that a baby is “catching up” to Usain Bolt when it learns to walk.
badgood news buddyThere are still some things to unwind here. Breakfast pizza, dirt cheap “meal”, advertising “mega” for what appears to be a normal sized slice.
4$ for a slice of pizza and a drink is dirt cheap ? I get the whole pizza for twice that in eu excuse me wtf
Yes but do you get a gallon of delicious corn syrup drink?

I think it’s worth noting that the pizza I’m mentioning in eu is a oven made one, not a frozen anything A whole pizza, for like 10-12$ converted in €
You can get a whole pizza for that price in the U.S. too. Less even. Just not at Casey’s.
I’ve got to ask, seeing as it’s an U.S. pizza - is it ACTUAL pizza, or the usual cardboard with pepperoni on top your country seems to love?
I don’t know how to answer that.
It may be shitty pizza, but it’s our shitty pizza.
You don’t even get ice in your drinks, you can’t compare. And $12 is 3x that price and I’d have to pay for water in the EU
You never pay for water in most of EU, but ok
I’ve never been given free water anywhere in the EU and I’ve been to a large number of the countries. You are high as fuck if you think they aren’t charging for water. One of the many reasons I hate Western Europe, but certainly not the only one.
Yeah, sure kid
In the EU you’d also get REAL pizza, as opposed to cardboard with fake 3rd rate meat on top.

So what’s England’s excuse, then?
Excuse for what, their “food”? That stuff is a war crime and can not be excused.
They eat beans on toast for breakfast. They have no say in this matter.

My visit to London a few years back showed me that Englishmen eat bad food, but not unhealthy food. Did I miss something or is it just London?
Scottland and Northerners love anything greasy, from what I know. Even deepfried butter.
