Quite interesting. I would love to come over for dinner to all but a couple of the Western countries.

    holy shit! That family from Mexico sure does love their Coke!

    I'm really glad that my 'week of groceries' looks nothing like the the pic that represents the US...I couldn't eat that much processed food, just looking at it grosses me out.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Have you ever tried Mexican coke? Delicious! ;)

    I agree with you on the USA picture. It's sad..hardly any fruits/veggies and a bunch of junk. That's the first thing I noticed.

    Coke is huge in Mexico. If I remember correctly, Coke 2 is still sold there, or at least was sold there for a while after it was discontinued in the U.S. LOTS of sugar ...

    oh yes! it comes in the bottles and is made with real sugar. I used to drink a LOT of it. I gave up my soda addiction a little over a year ago. I hardly ever drink it now. Don't really miss it that much...though if you gave me a case of Mexican Coke, I would drink all of it in a week.

    Wow, that's really interesting.
    It's amazing at how much processed crap we eat (not even Americans...but all over the world!)
