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.

  I don’t know whether to up vote or firm vote you.
  I mean, I totally agree that people shouldn’t waste a thought on the stereotypical american…but I also think it’s a good thing to give them shit wherever possible. Decisions decisions.
  
  I’ll up vote for now but I may come back later. Look at what you’ve made me do, I HOPE YOU’RE HAPPY!!!

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

    Asian asian food is saltier than I expected, but I try to watch my health. Honestly it’s probably just restaurants that do it, like everywhere in North America and Europe is trying to kill me with butter.
