During our travels in Europe we never came across the pervasive presence, nor marketing, of "junk food" ... nor the high proportion of obese adults and children. We love grocery shopping there - the local varieties of real bread, cheeses, meats, cold cuts, sausages .. and - God be praised - wine and beer ! No aisles of sweet pop, chips, flakes ......
Their food culture seems to be resistant to our preoccupation with nutrition schlock !
