Somewhere, hidden behind the fanatic Christianity and the double standard of American morality, great little wonders of civilization can be found. One thing is the extreme, food. As all extremes, they are good in reasonable amounts. Yesterday I had the 20oz (560g) Kobe Hamburger at one of New York's most famous and legendary steak houses, Old Homestead. The delicious, juicy meat is bread by crazy Japanese people who only fead the cows asparagus and massage them to make the meat tender. The fact that there is a market for such products in America, and the fact that anyone (with about $40 + tips and tax to spare) can go and get one makes America awesome! I mean, if I have to choose a country to live in I'd rather go for one with universal health care than the massaged-cow burger. But I love that I can visit your lovely country, have the best burger in the world and go back home to have my obesity cured for free..

Pursuit of bigger asses
Men's Health did a report on the 20 worst drinks American beverage producers could provide, a mind-opener article. To the American, the braking news is the fact that these are not healthy while the European is baffled to hear that Americans actually consume crap like this on a daily bases. IT IS NOT NORMAL to gulp down 1,5l of whipped cream and ice cream with a scent of coffee flavor! And just because it's orange doesn't mean it contains healthy fruit. Of course, it is tough for the average American to enlighten themselves and break the brainwashing cycle as they are fed this crap as soon as they go off breast milk. (Yes my fellow Europeans, they buy this stuff for children. I wonder if a child's belly can actually hold 1,5l of fluid??) The results? It's simple, Americans are fat. We have all seen this picture. I wont say it's scientific, but honestly, you couldn't find an ass that size if you went through all the McDonalds in an average sized European city. And in any American mall, you have to dodge them like slalom posts.
But hey, if it is any comfort, you have some great and price worthy coffee!
