Its interesting that just today I randomly watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1QvVnjiegE that lists some points an American living in the UK found to compare Europe and the US. And one of those points was about how American food is so much less healthy.

Whilst it was an interesting video and worth watching, it's interesting that this article shows a chart showing that the UK is very close to the the US in calories coming from ultra-processed food (with mainland Europe being much less, with a general south-is-healthier trend).

The video is also related to the point in the article about McDs being about freedom, and how Europeans and American's see things when they look across the pond.
