Come on, what are you talking about ! Your lack of culinary insight is obvious, as there is no such thing as my food is better than yours. Get of your ethnocentric mindframe, and open up to the realities that there is a broad range of food out there in the world, I could also say that Chinese food is the best in the world and that "NOTHING BEATS CHINESE FOOD", reasons being that there are more Chinese people who eat itm as oppose to much more less Peruvians who eat Peruvian food. To rub it in a little more, the Chinese have a Chinatown (Barrio Chino) in Lima Peru, and many other countries around the world alike, As oppose to no Peru town in China or anywhere else in the world alike. We could go on with this silly argument for ever, naming other countries food such as India, Italy, Spain ect. Open your mind, get off your narrow minded state of mind end enjoy what in front of you .. NOTHING BEATS PERUVIAN FOOD ? Come on, what are you talking about !

High Class people, they ate more veggies, a more balanced meals, but its the more healthy of all, obviously there are exceptions on all of the diets i mentioned but they are the minority like me. We have another really tasty thing, the NUTS4NUTS, yep the one sell peanut with caramel in wall street NY, thats CHILEAN. And i have to mention that there is some farm people who eats a diet like 30%Protein-50% Fat-20%Carbs, and they live perfectly 80-90 or more years and the carbs that they eat are almost completely unprocessed. One last thing, here the people eats incredibly bad, imagine Chile like a mini USA, because its really a MINI USA in that aspects, and here they copy everything from USA and others countries, but i have to say it, the typical streets unhealthy food from here are a lot more tasty than, Argentina, Brasil, Peru, almost all American Countries, why im Saying this? because i have been in almost all countries here in America. Examples of the unhealthy really tasty food Pastel de Choclo but the version with Sugar Churros filled with Manjar Sopaipillas Sopaipillas Pasadas Completos and all the varietys we have Ass(Like i said before its like a BIG HOT DOG but with differences features Calzones rotos Peanuts, almond nuts, etc.. with sugar=NUTS4NUTS And thats a few of all of the incredibly tasty unhealthy food. Well thats all, so all who read this thing, have a nice day This post its relative antique but i will post here since im from Chile

I was very surprised to learn about this. If anyone is interested (e-mail me), I can probably relocate the source of this information. It was a presentation by a medical doctor about the Malliard reaction and how AGEs negatively affect the body and, in particular, our skin. In his presentation was a list of the approximated AGE conent of various types of food. At the very top of the list were coffee and tea (and tea was higher.) Alarming and saddening at the same time.

But the lighter evening meal can still involve a plate of hot food (like pasta or fish with rice), it doesn't necessarily mean it is only a sandwich or snack.
