Dark chocolate with coffee nibs

I do cereal for pudding.

I like it. But most of us do on the reverse side of the planet.

This is not controversial.

Yes... nothing is a substitute for chocolate cake

Not controversial to me.

Took me years in the USA to find a bread that had no sugar. And then I moved back to NZ. I miss that sourdough so much.

I felt self-conscious about this as an American, particularly one that's vegan and pays a lot of attention to the added ingredients... But, then I saw a post on British food, and it was all cheap meat dripping with fat and surrounded by complex starches... Seems like learning English as your first language makes you allergic to green vegetables.

Waffles and chicken... what the f**k is that about?

I didn't realize how sugary some stuff was until I stopped eating anything with processed sugar for two weeks...the next time I tasted a soda I felt like I was just drinking liquid sugar.

Sheesh, way to show you cant be bothered thinking. Plenty of foods Americans enjoy are made without sugar, syrups or other sweeteners. Candied walnuts and other sweet things in salads are not the norm (and if you try an UNsweetened cranberry, then you'll understand why they ARE sweetened). Pie with ice cream is a treat for most, not a daily thing, and if it is syrupy, well, bad pie. Based on your spelling, you are clearly from a Brit country, so you have no room to criticize American food. I've spent months in England, for example, and while I had some wonderful meals, some of it was stunningly awful (vegetables cooked to death, ice cold toast), there is candy everywhere, and finding a decent green salad was a struggle.

american food does tend to the sweet, but so does a lot of other food, particularly in Asia. I'm not sure that all of this US bashing lately isn't just the other side of american exceptionalism. It's a crappy culture, just like all the other cultures.

Not all Americans.

Hidden sugar is a killer for a diabetic or prediabetic. I had a favorite Italian restaurant I loved where I moved from. Authentic wonderful food. I moved here and they had the same restaurant. Went in and got my favorite dish only to see my numbers spike real high when I got home. Chicken Cacciatore! What sugar is in that? I called the restaurant and the chef said they put sugar in the sauce because people like it that way......???? (I didn't eat the pasta-another can't have with diabetes)

Most of us who work in the food service industry actually have "american food" as the line we won't cross when cooking. For example, if you ask for ketchup to put on your pasta, you'll be ignored, at best. Laughed at or even yelled at is the usual answer, though

A couple of million or so shy of 330 million. So, on top of those who are actually toddlers, how many do you really think fall into your categorization Janet?

Brownies. From Costco and other places they are just sugar flour and a bit of chocolate. My friend brought me a few from the bakery near her house and the REAL brownie tastes amazing, without the sugar.

ever been to Singapore? Sugar...literally in everything...bags of it!

It is everyone's right to eat food as thy like it and nobody else can say them nay.

An Irish court ruled that Subway bread had too much sugar to be legally defined as "bread"

Food in America is a sweeping generalization, there are local variations in food, I am in the west where there is a vast diverse food option, if I go to Wyoming, I can’t get eighty percent of what I can at home

Not this American. Give me savory, spicy, salty, sour!

As an American, while I agree with this, and it is a problem we should rectify, I resent other countries being smug and acting superior. Don't like it - don't eat it.
