The world is getting fatter and it is all down to convenience food. The problem is the last generation and this one cannot cook and only know the microwave or deep fat fryer. Shame really as grannys old recipes are being lost forever.
We were in the States a while back and I have heard about how obese they are and didn't realise how bad things were. I can only imagine what the population around the world will look like in 20 years from now.
As you say - convenience food is the culprit. Nobody knows how to prepare a healthy meal anymore from actual fresh ingredients. My niece is 28 years old and weighs a 100kg - she lives on fast food delivered by fat people in small cars - they call it Ubereats. Poison on wheels. Makes me sad. I told her I rode in to the city - she couldn't even start to comprehend how that was possible or why I would do it.
