You know, after rewatching the Perrysode with the Eat-it-All-Inator, I´ve had a thought:

What if the famine was caused not just by the Midwest going *MadMax/Fallout on Steroids*, but also because at least in RL US Americans have an annoying tendency to see *ridiculously huge portions* as a sign of "proper" cooking? Seriouly, as an European, "normal" US portions seem to be roughly what I would consider (X)L portions.

So what if we instead of/in addition to our strong foodstuff sector marketed an inverted version of the Eat-It-All-Inator (or just some kind of normal supplement) that made your metabolims *more efficient* instead of *more speedy*, therefore allowing people to reach the same level of productivity and health with *less* nourishment? Admittedly, that goes against us investing in foodmaking so much, but let´s be honest: Pulped crickets, shredded nutria and ground algae aren´t the most salivating ingredients even if they get the job done, so having a way to cut down on our food consumption in case we have tighten our belts again would be nice to have.

Just a thought, you know?
 
We have such large food sizes cause our food prices are rock bottom compared to the rest of the world. We have the largest stretch of arable land in the world thanks to the Mississippi River System and the Great Plains and we STILL basically subsidize farmers to not work their land to the fullest. If the US wanted to we could crash the world market on raw food prices. The reason we have the famine in DVV is cause half that land is gone, nothing else.

Maybe, but nobody´s forcing you to stuff yourselves on all that food with little restraint - or the fact that most of your "food" seems to positively *drown* in fat/cheese/sugar.

Just looks unbridedly gluttonous to me, you know?

Gleeman here with the burning hot take of "What if there's famine because Americans are fat slobs?" Somebody call Frozone.

I explicitly said "ALSO because the portions are way too huge"...please don´t claim that I am not aknowledging the famine as a big part of the problems.

Also, what does Frozone have to do with it all?

I will freely admit to not liking the USA *at all* for several reasons - most of them tied to them showing off in an extremly hypocritical and condescending light.

For those familiar with TVTropes, the trope "Eagleland Flavor 2" comes to mind.

But my original intention with my concept for giving people a more efficient metabolism wasn´t really about critizising US-American eating habits (though those did spark my imagination), but instead preparing people for possible lean times - I for one would rather not risk Doof having to sub for any more garden gnomes, you know?

Dude, quit while you're behind, you're making yourself look like quite the hypocrite and your prejudice is being disruptive.

Edit: I mean at this point you were just calling Americans in general fat unhealthy slobs, not a good thing to open with.
