Every time I wanted to buy it, I always forced myself to think about how big their bellies are. 😊 It's quite helpful. A typical Indian guy in his mid-age has a waist doubling my size. 🤣🤣🤣

Are these Indian normal size in their own country? My ex-coworkers said they ate same types of food in India but got big belly here.

Haha，same things happened to Italians. Pizzas made them like balloons in NA while not in Italy.

Is it because that North Americans are less active physically, compared to Europeans?
-sailor(Ocean & Mountain);

Partially true, because we don't have many bike lanes like Europeans who're fortunate enough to bike to work or shopping if they choose to.

Do you dare to bike to work if you live in an apartment of Toronto?

I used to bike to work, from Dufferin Station to Yonge/King.

Not risky ? How many years ago?

That was around year 2000. I crashed once. My wheel was trapped by the streetcar rail on Queens Street.

Thanks for sharing and a strong evidence of not biking in Toronto.

In India, women would dress with their waist exposed. However, you won't be able to see any fit abs that are exposed. I doubt they only expose it when it's big enough.

Those you mentioned are their ancestors. Modern South Asians have healthy living and dieting in mind all the time. Your eyes may need to go extra miles to see that.

Young Indian men are usually fit, but when they turn 30+ the story is different. I "lived" in Mysore for 2.5 months. Even some yoga teachers have big bellies. 😊

It's the fault of ethnic genes perhaps.

I think it's the awareness of fitness. Only people in developed countries come to such awareness. Back in China, guys would be proud of their big bellies before 1990s. But now it's different.

Awareness has to go hand in hand with solid infrastructures,otherwise awareness won't go further. I dream to bike to work but it's extraordinarily risky in Toronto.

Agree. Actually I believe that if the majority of commuters switch to bikes, no matter where, it would be a mess. I still remember that when I was in middle school, there were hundreds of bikes in the bike shelters.

Strikingly well-organized infrastructures won' t let the mess you mentioned happen. I haven't seen it happen in Netherlands before and I 'm pretty much sure it won't happen in that country in the future, near or far. Netherlands is a great example.

If you make it by yourself, you can use honey.

I used little white sugar, only for making kombucha.
-sailor(Ocean & Mountain);

I'm bad at cooking but whenever I'm in that position, I always have honey instead of regular sugar, white or brown.
