China is eating beef like it's going out of style... Watch as their health declines with this generation's eating habits...

Raven, the concept of asian cooking as "healthy" is a huge misconception. My wife is Chinese and when we first met we went to a lot of traiditonal Chinese restaurants in San Francisco. She ordered dishes called "fatty pork" and other things that were so bad for you. I think asian cooking got good press years ago for the vegatable/stir fry concept that is one part of the asian diet. Asian diets are high in carbs (rice) and fat/cholestorol - eggs, pork, oil etc. My mother in law eats a 100% asian diet and she is a diabetic, and gets kidney dialysis 3 times a week.
