No surprise here, food was never the problem. Japanese are not incompetent self-unreliant wankers that require the government to set regulations on what they can eat.

Because the Japanese walk and ride bikes. And they don't eat as MUCH food, even if the food itself is chock-full of delicious calories and grease.

HA! I had the "washlet" bidet ads on my page. How appropriate...after you destroy your colon eating that grease laden heap you can run it through the happy butt washer!

Simple. They don't eat that crap. It's amazing how few calories there are in steamed fish and vegetables.

Oh man, that thing looks disgusting. I wouldn't touch it with a thirty-nine and-a-half foot pole.

Feeling rather grinchy today?

I'd try it, but I don't know if I'd go beyond one slice

It's amazing the introduction of a single fast food item doesn't automatically create a nation of obese people overnight (is the OP serious??? WTF?)
