American food is no longer healthy? American food is quite a large variety, with food ranging from as healthy as you can find anywhere, to junk food. Thailand has some real good western food, of course not on par with the best available in America but close. Chinese food can be much the same anywhere you buy it, as long as you have the correct sauces. I've eaten Chinese food hundreds of times in many states, and knew Chinese people that worked in the restaurants, and they said their food is exactly how it was back home. The same with any Asian food. Thai food in America is as good as Thai food here. The same with Vietnamese. Some Americans have tattoos, most don't. Maybe a third of the population. Americans are lucky you moved here, as you completely lost what's been going on there for decades, so this is why you assume. If you want to see a lack of manners, look at the Chinese, who are well known to lack etiquette. Many times I've walked through airports and it's always the Chinese women, not the young, who will walk straight into you and or not move to the side when you approach them. Manners are personal, and not about any country as a whole.
