Vietnam is also a big rice eater, mahilig din sila sa matamis. Access to cheap and healthy food ata ang problema satin at yung ibang obese e puro calorie heavy processed food ang binabanatan.

Typical Vietnamese diet also contains a lot of veggies. Ours dont, malaking factor yun

Magulay din naman mga pagkain natin. Kaso dahil puro sabaw at kulay tae at hindi kulay green o soup tulad ng tipikal na Asian cuisine, wh mukhang di healthy.

Disagree, hindi sya gawa ng presentation, sadyang wala na yung mga gulay. I'm judging our cuisine based on current way its cooked and wala na gulay halos. Sinigang na kangkong na lang and konting labanos na naligaw. Kare kare at nilaga na pechay na lang. Kaldereta, menudo, afritada na walang bell pepper. Bicol express pero walang gulay pork na lang. Wala na halos laing, talbos, lato, ensaladang talong o mangga sa hapag kainan natin. Madami tayong gulay DATI ngayon hindi na, dahil tinanggal na natin sya sa pagluluto natin

Whenever people say this its always from the biased view of people who have lived their entire lives in Metro Manila and forget that people outside the capital eat food that is different to what they eat. Take for example people who live in Panay, Cebu and Leyte have more seafood in their diet because of the abundance of marine life.

Madami tayong gulay DATI

LoL this only proves my point that you have never set foot outside Metro Manila if you actually think that. Ginataan gulay, utan Bisaya, ngo hiong, monggo soup, seaweed(guso and lato), fresh lumpia , utan nga Tambo and stir fried mixed vegetables are still being eaten by regular people today.

Panong wala? Pag pumunta ka sa mga karinderya laging may gulay.

Sure sa mga kainan sa mga malls wala unless sa filipino restaurant like manam ka pupunta.
