    Yeah meat is pretty expensive where I am from, yet my mother still cooks it 5/7 days a week (probably due to my pickiness as a kid, but we have pretty bad eating habits in general)

      Agreed, it seems impossible for the average American to feel a meal is complete without some portion of meat included.

          I think it was Liz on a recent TA episode that said the Internet has exported and Americanized all western cultures which makes a lot of sense

            That and many people starved during the Nazi occupation (I’m Greek), which caused most people of the time to stuff their kids afterwards (and grandkids)

              Hadn’t considered that, but it’s makes sense. Probably similar treatment Gen x and boomers had with great depression parents
