You’d be surprised if I tell you that majority of American states tap water is not drinkable, that’s why most rely on purified bottled water.

This is true

1. Story story....
2. Obesity is high yet mortality age is equally high meaning the fat are also living long... wow!!

Obesity reduces life expectancy. Let me burst your bubble. The US doesn't come in the top 30 countries in life expectancy.

Citabke reference for this your assumption?

Heart disease is caused by too much fries, too much calories and junk food.

Abegi! Yet many of the 37% live longer than the Nigerian mortality age of 57, right?

No mind those dullards, they think everything about America and in America is perfect.

Plenty herbicides and pesticides.....abegb shift

Those can be washed off, GMO and heavy preservatives is worse.

My neigbour, a woman who travelled abroad to visit her son who got married to a white woman. She was there for just 4 months. When she came back to Nigeria, she has grown fat.

She was a thin black woman in Nigeria, but within four months stay in abroad, she has turn fatty and abit fair in complexion.

Na So Abroad Life Be?

This is not about abroad life but more about the fact that she went on 'holidays'. The same thing could have happened to her even if it was in Nigeria. People living abroad don't just stay home, sleep, eat and watch TV like she must have been doing. They go out to hustle. So using the experience of someone vacationing at a place to judge the experience of people living there is not very logical in my opinion.

The argument is not about Nigeria vs American life expectancy. They are several factors affecting the life expectancy of Nigerians. Generally, junk food is not good for your health.

Abeg, spare me the bullsheet excuses abeg! They are old and tasteless at this point!

1. You folks and just spewing stuff without doing your own research. Even Mcdonald's food is no longer labeled unhealthy since it pretty much mirrors what you make at home. So, why continue to spread these lies against Mcdonald's? Which part of your bother is overprocessed again abeg? The lettuce? the cheese? The tomatoes? The bun? The beef pattie? Name it.

2. So the easy and cheap "proper" meals that we have access to here abroad are what? Not?

Guy, I don’t know if you got tipped off that we’re getting paid by the world health organisation to comment on this thread but calm down because I don’t know what all the vim is about. If I’ve gotten something wrong that’s fine, I didn’t claim to be an authority on nutrition, I’m just speaking on my personal experiences.

McDonald’s is just an example of fast food, there are other franchises I can list, frozen junk foods, ready made foods, snacks which are not the end of the world if you consume every once in a while but a lot of these things are packed with sodium, fatty acids, sugar and most importantly a large amount calories in small portions, so if one makes a habit of grabbing these because they’re easy to access it can lead to a habit of an unhealthy diet.

From my experience, unhealthier foods are easier and more convenient to access abroad. If that’s not the case for you, no problem

1. So, frozen junk foods no dey Nigeria be that? Or only people in Nigeria don't make a habit of grabbing them from their freezers?
2. So, the healthy foods at say Mcdonald's, Chipotle, etc. are not also easier and more convenient to access abroad?

Kobojunkie:

Young man, you're smarter than this. What is your point exactly? Wanting to engage in some Tuesday trolls or willing to be educated on diet and food?

So the average Nigerian living in the poverty capital of the world is grabbing frozen chicken nuggets and chips since I specifically mentioned frozen junk foods, not frozen foods in general

These junk food franchisees have healthier options but are primarily known for their cheap, fatty, salty bargain meals. McDonald’s is literally the pinnacle of unhealthy fast food

ednut1:
why is lukaku and kante black shebi they were born there. Mumu looking for my attention so bad

but you black them na

She doesn't work here in Nigeria either. She a retired teacher. She just stays at home, eat and rest.

Right now, she has reduce in weight to her normal size.

Excessive consumption of over processed foods, her fairness might be attributed to the cool weather

When you are at someone's house, the host goes far and beyond to make you comfortable. They make sure you have no responsibilities. You wake up whenever you want, eat whatever you want and go wherever you want. You can't really compare vacations with your own home where you have responsibilities, think of the next day's meal, and manage expenses. Even if she was fattened by the fattening sugary foods in the US, it would still imply life there ain't healthy cause those fattening junks are mostly eaten by people who who can't afford good foods.

All I'm saying is that she might have had a nice time, but her experience doesn't come close to that of people who go abroad to earn a living.

Good question... Even Kante and Lukaku wey get money like mad no turn oyinbo.. Dem still retain their charcoal black.. There is something our "abroadians" are not telling us as regards their lifestyle, especially women

9ja, male and female these days can only face fierce competition from Indians, Ghanaians, Cameroonians and Congo-Zairians in the use of "skin toning" creams.

You see a dark 50 years old 9ja guy after 6 months and he now looks like yellow banana with black knuckles.

Some of our ladies take it to another level entirely.

Simple biology ought to have enlightened people about the risks of bleaching their skin.

1. So, forget puff-puff and akara, fried plantain chips, friend yam, fried fish, etc., and other fried delicacies, na only frozen fried chicken nuggets dey unhealthy?

2. So, ignore all the healthy foods wey dey McDonald's abi? I don ask you before, what part of the McDonald's burger is unhealthy?

Does she at least feed well? Does she have people taking care of her or around her to keep her happy and all?

MimiSheWrote:
Lol an average Nigerian that hasn't traveled before always over-estimates "abroad" in their imagination. as if it's another planet and people there breathes in different type of oxygen, Or that white people are such a big deal and much different from us.

Then you finally get there and realize that they also have people that don't shower or brush for days, People who pick their nose and eat it, people who spit on the sidewalk and people who scratch their itchy nyash and balls in public.

Loooooooooooooooooooooooool @ scratch their itchy nyash and balls in public... What if they are females, what will they scratch? Lol

dochenaj:

The fact that you used the daily estimation of $100 to arrive at $3000 monthly meant you had never been to the US neither do you understand how the wage structure work there.

So you are clearly in no position to adjudge what is poverty by US standards.

People come on a public and faceless forum and give an impression of being knowledgeable when they know nothing about what they are talking about.

guy chill that is just a rough estimation based on what the guy said. Perhaps that the same way you guys profiles US as heaven on earth hear in Nigeria before moving there to find out all things are not rosy like they thought

It gets tiring arguing with people who move the goal post and are committed to misunderstanding things. I hope the rest of your week gets better since it seems you’re in a bit of a mood today. Take care

You clearly explained that the poverty-stricken people of Nigeria have access to better food options even though the foods are just as deep-fried as the frozen junk foods we find abroad.

If abroad do really change black people skin why the like of N’Golo Kante can’t change?

Na junk food Dey make people fat for abroad oh not healthy food which is expensive.

Thats false.
Also you do know that garri is over processed right?

ibkayee:

I'm sure you're alone in that thought process hon.

There's a reason average life expectancy in the US is 51 in Nigeria and 79 in the US

Splitmind:
Don't be deceived, Nigerians are going through hell and suffering abroad, most can't come back because they don't have money for a flight ticket!!!

Stop being unpatriotic and stay back to rebuild Nigeria.

I'll come back and rebuild when your President and ministers ban medical trips abroad and schooling abroad for their kids.
