Comment on TIL smoking is good for your body

To be fair, Asians are both gifted genetically with regards to skin and aging (thicker dermis, more collagen. Culturally, a lot of Asian groups are serious about skincare, and a lot of Asian cuisine is rich in Vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and low in saturated fat.

This is very unfair with comparison to Americans who bawk at the idea of sunblock and vegetables, and treat saturated fats as a dietary staple.

  I’ve got chickens. Some of them make the same sounds a lot of Americans make if you offer them a salad.

As opposed to the Europeans who think that wine is a dietary group? Or Asians who think that salt is a vitamin?
