      It’s also the fact that (At least in the US) burgers get served next to a pile of french fries. Calorie mountain. Eating a burger without fries isn’t a bad meal. Sub them with apple slices or olives or another pickle.

        Do they really add sugar to bread in the USA? Sounds so wild to me.

        Anyhow, light bread isn’t terrible, but wole-grain bread makes for a much more balanced diet.

          Ireland declared subway breads are actually cakes due to the amount of sugar (some sugar in bread is ‘natural’ though)

        bread is made of carbohydrates, carbohydrates get converted into blood glucose, blood glucose drives insulin, persistently elevated insulin levels leads to insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction.
