TLDR; Looks like "American" food really is probably a lot worse for you and it is likely linked to additives that make it last longer on the shelf. One issue I do have, You need to also measure the quantities of food you are eating. "American" portions are insane and at least double what a European portion would be in many cases.
This is just one example but honestly I have been to Europe once and I lost weight. Not just from walking so much, I ate anything and everything I wanted.
I have considered getting various health monitoring devices to chart data based on my diet/exercise/etc just for the hell of it but at this point I feel like if I am making Pasta I am going to buy imported flour and make it myself... Also good to make sure you don't have glycophosphate in it.

>As an Italian-American, my fondest memories are of coming home from school to mom cooking a massive pot of spaghetti and homemade garlic bread, or getting takeout pizza as a family on Friday nights.
But as much as I love pasta and a slice, they don't exactly love me. As I've gotten older, increasingly they leave me bloated and fatigued for hours post-meal.
Like many Americans, I'd heard stories about Americans traveling to Europe and being able to eat anything without bloating like they would at home.
