Only been so in the past 60 years, when food productions increasingly got controlled by corporates, corporatism had changed the entire diet practices worldwide. From how foods are produced to the foods for our foods, like animal feeds and fertilizers are all heavily industrialised. They don't care for customers' health only profit

*shelf life is the priority*

Its because usa food industry are ready to do all kind of immoral things to reduce cost while having great flavour Then they lobby the science lobb, law lobby, regulation lobby to not bother them about it. Or at least give them a good 30 years of being unbothered before regulating it

and many other things compared to a first world nation

I find it funny when dietitians on tiktok make comments like diet soda there’s nothing wrong with that when literally it has banned ingredients in the Europe

As someone working in the Food Industry in Germany, some of that stuff only sounds special + or is just needed for the technical process to produce it in large quantities and near same products. Like Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C, for natural preservative, oxidation protection and because vitamin C is often added during the manufacturing process when products are heated, as vitamin C begins to be destroyed in certain quantities from 40°, at most temperatures above 100° considerable parts are destroyed.) L-cysteine is used in the form of the hydrochloride as a flour treatment agent and baking agent in the production of baked goods. It softens the gluten by depolymerizing the molecules of the gluten fraction through thiol-disulfide exchange with the intermolecular disulfide bonds (i.e. breaking the bonds that hold the long chain molecules together).[21] As a result, the dough becomes more elastic and develops faster. With high-gluten flour, a higher baked volume can be achieved because the leavening gas (such as the carbon dioxide formed by the yeast) can loosen the dough more easily.[26] Cysteine hydrochloride can also be added in the production of pasta to speed up dough production (an addition of 0.01% shortens the mixing or kneading time by 15-20%). It inhibits the formation of melanoidins during non-enzymatic browning and thus counteracts discoloration.[26] In addition to these applications, cysteine, like other amino acids, acts as a flavouring agent, flavour enhancer and nutrient.[27] L-cysteine hydrochloride or hydrochloride monohydrate is approved under European food law as an additive without maximum quantity restriction (quantum satis) under the number E 920.[28][29] In principle, it is subject to declaration, but not if it is no longer technologically effective in the labeled product in accordance with Article 20 of the Food Information Regulation and Section 9 (8) No. 1 of the Additive Approval Regulation. According to the Baking Ingredients Institute (an institution of the Baking Ingredients Association), the technological effectiveness of cysteine used as a flour treatment agent (i.e. already added to the flour before leavening) does not extend to the finished baked goods, but to the dough piece if it is offered as a semi-finished product, for example.[30] It therefore does not need to be labelled in finished baked goods. The Federation of German Consumer Organizations does not share this legal opinion Diacetyl tartaric acid DATEM (E472e in EU) is a emulsifier primarily used in baking to strengthen the gluten network in dough. It is added to crusty breads, such as rye, to impart a springy, chewy texture To name some, but the list for our Bread is still alot of shorter and more basic natural ingredients used. Best is still to make your on Bread, its easy, cost not much and you have alot alot of different ones to try, alone germany has over 3000 food register. But canned food, especially canned fruit/vegetables, is often even better than normal frozen food and comes close to fresh, the vitamins and minerals are still present to a very large extent.

Really it's because of the working week. I know so many people that work 10 hours a day 6 days a week and come home exhausted and the last thing they want to do is spend another hour or 2 throwing together a homemade dish. Doesn't help that homemade dishes are often meant for like 10 people so you either do some math and work it out for however many are eating it or you eat it for the next 3 days straight. Of course there are always exceptions. I hear of stay at home parents that won't lift even lift a finger.

Croatian here - same story, we were all raised on real cooked homemade food - made from real actual ingredients. And as to the working week, our grandmas and moms used to cook a week's worth of food in a single day very often so as to save time during the week. (and for a very specific reason those meals tasted better with each passing day)

@@FatheredPuma81 For me cooking is a nice change of pace after work. I enjoy cooking after a hectic day at work. But then I also cook large portions and either freeze some for days I am working a late shift or take a portion with me to the office to reheat at lunch time. In my opinion cooking from scratch should be possible for most people, there are many easy fast recipes for workdays. Today we had boiled potatoes, green beans and a pork cutlet. Peel potatoes, put them on the stove, prepare/wash green beans and add them to the pot of now boiling potatoes. Put a pan on, fry cutlets. In 25 minutes total time a meal is ready.

@@kuebbisch The OP said "from scratch" and even mentioned pre-made brownie mix as an example. So I believe he was talking about more complicated dishes. I don't think many people can't make a simple Steak and Potatoes-esc dinner. Idk why I've never thought of freezing my food and reheating it tbh. Only issue is finding meals that work being frozen.

Well, that's not too bad. Far from healthy, sure. But at least none of the ingredients is weaponized.

It's ridiculous. Low sugar, no sugar, no high fructose corn syrup, low fat, no fat, and so on.

Having low sodium will actually exacerbate high blood pressure. You should make sure you have plenty of electrolytes. In fact many people don't get nearly enough and have gotten scared of salt due to out of date research.

@@maikeoto6903 ...and most people get too much sodium. Way too much.

@@section8usmc53 not really. Our bodies are incredibly good and processing sodium. You'll just excrete the excess sodium in urine. The problem is where you don't have enough sodium to regulate normal bodily functions. Our diets used to have WAY more salt than we now do due to no refrigeration. Yet there were no reports of hypertension or other issues with kidney function. Our bodies are used to excess sodium, not used to not getting enough. You can have over 6 times the amount of salt the USDA recommends and it poses much less of a health risk than actually listening to their outdated guidelines. I say look into it more and you'll find that the little war on salt is a pathetic argument that's killed thousands.

We went away for 3 weeks to visit the kids, and I forgot to put my husband's bread in the freezer. Imagine my surprise when we return and I could not see a trace of mold. It had been in the bread box. It should have been a slimy mess. I was having company for Easter and decided to buy rolls. Everyone loved them. Asked how I found them since I never eat bread. It was easy. Every where I went the rolls and bread smelt moldy. Looked fine. And that was just picking them up. No where near my nose. But strong smell. I hate walking threw the bread sections in stores because of it. When I finally found a store with sourdough rolls. Picked them up. Smelt like homemade bread. No moldy smell. The list of ingredients were normal homemade bread ingredients. I am convinced the strange ingredients stop you from seeing the mold which is actually there.

Fresh bread would be what I'd miss most if I moved to the US. Sadly small bakeries are also disappearing slowly in Germany and being replaced by bakery chains, but those companies are still kind of regional and still doing it the old way, without any extra flavoring stuff or anything. I was really shocked when I once saw a video where an American in Germany was fascinated about the fact that you can get fresh bread everywhere. I just thought that was normal.

It's actually not that hard, as a Brazillian living in the USA, all you need some free time once in a day and you can cook food for the next 5 to 6 days without even that much work at all. I'll share the most common brazillian everyday meal with you: Black beans with rice: Black beans, get around 300g of black beans and put it on an big pan with water, add a smashed garlic teeth and 2 bay leafs, a little bit of salt and let it cook for about an hour and half, take a look at it every 30 min to se if it needs some more water and that's it, once the beans are soft its done. you can make with with sausage slices to give it little bit of a "jeijoada taste" but it'll go bad faster ( 4 days). just add rice (you know how to make rice right?) You can eat it combined with a salad, or a fried egg or french fries, a beef... it's on you. Once you are done eating you can just put it on a refrigerator for the next days, and reheat it any time you want. WE EAT IT EVERY SINGLE DAY

A lot of us just aren't educated on what's actually healthy and we try to be healthy but fail because what we think is healthy isnt. We also need way more health education other than "eat an apple and run" advice they give us in HS health class.

It's still hard to eat healthy often and the food addiction is definitely still there its just easier to manage and I exercise more to burn the calories but I know I still eat like crap compared to most healthy foreigners. It's easy for them to judge until most of them have lived here and learned the struggle. Also to the guy above eating black beans and rice every day sounds like shit.

to be fair, russia does have a problem with obesity as well, like any other country in the world. however, the extra kilos come from fatty, fried foods that are a staple in our cuisine, like pan-fried potatoes or savory pasties with meat or cabbage that are fried in the pan. so it’s not due to the excessive consumption of processed food. you can just as easily gain weight by eating home-made food. also, most of the salads here have mayonnaise-based dressing which is obviously a contributing factor as well.

I think if you could arrange the transport and not get caught, just using unextracted coca leaves would be cheapest - I don't think that there is much of a legal market for cocaine nowadays (dentists used to use it as a local anaesthetic, but it was widely replaced with less regulated alternatives), so a legal cocaine extraction operation probably would not be able to make much money from the cocaine (destroying all or most of it), and would then need to sell the extracted leaves more expensively than they bought them. it could also be though that today's coca cola recipe uses so lottle coca that even without extraction, the cocaine content would be negligible. I don't know.

Yeah, its quite a shame. A bit of coke is fine if you aren't smoking or snorting it.

@@EsotericBibleSecrets low oral doses of cocaine have fewer side effects than caffeine

You should watch the Vox episode about the addiction in Honduras. People drink it thinking falsely it "cures" diabetes.

@@Ass_of_Amalek I would provide scientific sources for statements like these.

So it made you Wonder

@@josephwanjiku6853 Boooooo!

Wonder Bread is absolute garbage. It would taste better if you made sandwiches from actual cardboard.

What 😳 😐🥺😔

the sad fact is.....we can eat your food in my coundry.......but u cant eat our food except for ordering it :/ i can say, your food is much much sweeter than our food.....even the toast as example

It’s easy just go to the grocery or maybe a supermarket and buy non-processed food and there you go European food😊

You don’t need to buy European products. Enough Americans want healthy food that companies actually make them here. Just don’t be lazy

'Their version of our food'... You have to think that we don't eat 'your food' we eat 'our food'. This is a pure example on how some of the US citizens think that the entire world wants to be like them.. Enjoy your mountain dew, I love my crystal clear water from the mountain.

you can find Euro food in many russian shops in the US

"Man sues corporate megabiz and mysteriously drops lawsuit for no apparent reason" Someone find out who he is and check to see if he moves into a massive mansion within the next couple of years. Or starts parking Lambos in his driveway.

You will probably find the recipes for the banned foods slightly different to what they sell in America.

Because it's GMO and sugar and BHT artificial preservatives

imagine eating something u thought its gonna be a good healthy breakfast, only to know now that theres bad chemicals inthere

@@stellaomera8489 Yes, that's what I actually thought back then 😔

What brands do you buy

They have significantly less gluten in their wheat over there

The same with Pringles in the UK. They are not taxed as a potato chip (or crisps, as they are referred to in the UK) because they do not contain 50 % potato.

thats Ireland. and it's because of a specific law in Ireland only

It isn't banned. Literally all the ruling was about was whether or not Subway had to pay an additional tax. The legality of Subway bread was never in question.

@@JillWhitcomb1966 If you want another fun one, most US "cheese" can't even legally be called cheese in most of the world It's "cheese like product" at best and you're lucky if it's even 50% cheese

The VO really makes this channel (and Weird History) for me. When the occasion video of theirs comes on without this narrator, I just can't watch it.

Best comment

obviously gym mats are vegan, they need the yoga people as customers.

If you do put it in there, management will ask you to leave.

but newspapers contain much-needed roughage and essential inks!

Malk! Now with Vitamin R!

Is because they want that his products last more in shelves not just a week

Huggies! I am not a fan of sugar but there isn’t any sugar in them now at all, it is all sucralose!

Seb0rn, What's the cancer rate in Germany? Although, imo, health has a lot more to do with genetics than food.

​@mariesmith8454 nah, food is 99% of issues in the western world, we haven't eaten a natural diet for hundreds of years but it's the last 100 that have done the damage, raw meat is perfectly fine as long as the animal is

@@dietznutz1 BS, in the 60s and 70s even the 80s people in America were nothing like today with the obesity problem!!! Not at all, today it's 74% of Americans overweight or obese that's worse than it ever was

That is strange you guy's in Deutschland eat lunch or dinner food for breakfast, I been there many times. Bread meat and cheese, high fat and sodium read the package!! And I eat Müseli with organic fruit and almond milk for breakfast here in America, I don't eat garbage

@m42037 I'm not talking about just obesity

Same experience when I first came to Germany. Just too much sugar everywhere, even in traditional staples foods like sauerkraut.

Same thing here was disappointed tbh

Tasted the same in Germany been there 3 times 🤷‍♂️

That is bad restaurant and fast food in general. That is everywhere, even all over the EU. It means you ate out cheap or low quality places.

@@scottneil1187 I'm from Eastern Europe, not the US. And yes, there's absurd amounts of sugar and salt in everything in Germany. I'm always surprised how anybody can eat some of that stuff, but then I remind myself that people also enjoy drinking Red Bull, which I literally had to throw in the trash when I first tried it.

The US does have high standards regarding foods being imported. The baby formula shortage is a good example

@@jtgd All foods must meet the same standards that foods produced domestically must meet. But as regulations sometimes have to go through legislative approval, regulations may not be approved as quickly or easily as they should. Senator Hatch for years prevented FDA from establishing regulations on dietary supplements because he was part-owner in at least 3 large companies. Unlike the executive branch employees, there is no recusal for conflict of interest for legislators. They are able to vote on bills of which they have a personal interest in.

Yeah, I was gonna say, there are American foods that are banned elsewhere but the same applies for foods coming in. The heavy processing that foods receive in the modern age isn't one sided, and it *can* have adverse affects. It's a matter of trade-offs and making decisions that might have some downsides, but you have to weigh them against the good side. That said, I've never seen a good side to the entire sugar industry so I gave up candy and sodas aaaaaagggeees ago. My daughter's never had that garbage either.

Funny how the FDA still allows seed oils to be ingested. Another failure... I'm convinced they don't actually care about human health.

Is it still the case that Haggis can't be brought into the US?
