2009-01-09 9:30 pm
Cause i went to china and saw maybe a few kinda chunk chinese. But when I came back to the Vancouver airport and see all the canadian chinese waiting for their family or whomever there was a good number of hefty asians.

Also there was this asian chick in my class who is like 400 pounds, I could never imagine seeing that in China.

Do all the fat chinese migrate to the US?

Because China cannot afford to feed fat people, so they export them to Canada.

Because they're eating the same JUNK the rest of the fat people in the US are eating ! They get fat after they move here.Same with Canada.

That is because of the food served in the respective countries. In Canada(and America, for that matter) there are far too many fast food restaurants and grease joints.
The Chinese and Japanese eat lots and lots of rice and fish, which helps keep your body fat down.
In 2006 I went to Japan for 3 weeks, and in that time I lost about 3 pounds, as well as my 'spare tire'.

the above and because of our lack of exercise. Here's it's easy to hop into your car, drive yourself to a McDonald's drive-thru, order a supersized meal and eat it while you drive to work/school/home.

In Asia, you'll have to walk to the bus/subway station, take the bus/subway, then walk to the McDonald's, order the food (which they don't come in anything bigger than a medium/regular sized), eat it and then walk back to bus/subway and then walk home.

I live in China and love seing any but nice body chinese girls...

Reasons why Asians are not fat:
- Food. They only eat healthy food, call it veggies and rice.
- Excercise. They cannot affor all luxuries USA can. They usually walk a lot.
- Medicine. Almost all here is about medicin, starting from the tea (one kind of tea takes care of specific part of the body), going through the food and ending in natural medicine based in herbs and no chemics.
- Income. Average citizen cannot afford big meals, so they just eat what they need.

This apply to China.

Of course when they go Canada, USA or wherever, they get higher income and tempted with "delicious" food rich in fats and colesterol.

In main cities like Beijing, people already started getting fat, thanks to McDonalds, KFC and so on western fast food chain and their local copies.

Maybe is because they are tired of eating rice and veggies and now they are getting used to McDonald's Or Burger King..

In my opinion... It is the food that cause those Asian Chinese become FAT...

When Chinese visited or stayed at any western countries... They do not speak well foreign language...

So they are hesitate to eat at restaurant... Beside Chinese are thrifty and they have low budget when they migrate to any foreign countries...

Chinese in Asian are use to cooked their meal at home and more healthy... and it is different stories when they are in foreign land... They have to eat out... and those western food like beef steak can't fill their stomach full... So they choose to eat at fast food restaurant... and it is cheaper which they are also more familiar with the food...

Food as a percentage of income is a lot cheaper in North America.
