alchresearch Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 My OH used to live in the states. She says that the American obsession with overeating and junk food isn't as bad as the TV makes it out to be. My current bugbear is the increase in commercials for cereals with chocolate in them.

Depends where in the states you are. The big East coast cities seemed to me to have a lot of eateries where more normal (for Europeans) portions were served. In New York finding a diner is sctually quite tricky now. Same in Toronto when I went there. Florida was a different thing altogether though, buffet restaurants everywhere.

top fella Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Like most people on here I never watch tv and eat only organic and fresh foods, therefore I am deluded and think that terrorists don't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASGOWOODS Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Perhaps they wanted the date for a Moroccan lamb tagine? I know a Moroccan who drives a Lambtagine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are those adverts aimed at the kids or the adults When I were a lad (said with a twinkle in me eye ) we had a choice of toast, cornflakes or weetabix. Occasionally we'd have rice crispies and shredded wheat. And that was it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I were a lad we had a choice between a good thrashing and a broken glass sandwich, without the bread. And we counted ourselves lucky. jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliewag Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 the missus and me were in new york recently and as I1L2T3 says, diners are very hard to find. the best meals we had were in irish bars but the only veg we got was broccoli. we could get bananas, apples and oranges from a deli but they were expensive.
