If only there was somewhere to buy fruit in NYC! Alas.
And how lucky for those of us who live outside the mecca that is NYC. I live in Minneapolis, which, as you know, has no delicious food at all. No amazing restaurants, food trucks, or pastry shops. Not a one.0 -
You forgot Cronuts.
I hear they're amazing.0 -
Theres delicious tempting food everywhere, that is not an excuse.
very few places on Earth have what NYC offers.0 -

Uh...we have food here, too. What's the difference?0 -

isnt London a world class city? my guess is they have great food selections too. but do you think you can get the same food in Bismarck, ND? the answer is no.
the point of the thread is that places like NYC, London etc...have much more tempting food choices than just about anywhere else.0 -
God thats gorgeous! One day I'll get to visit NYC one day.0

NYC is a walking city.
those of us that drive have the true struggle.0 -
Wow. Some of you really know how to take a light hearted, slightly amusing thread and turn in into a downer.
One of the great advantages of being a vegetarian in Tokyo is that I can't eat most of the food (due to their obsession with sticking fish in pretty much everything) and their desserts suck. To put in in perspective my favourite dessert in Tokyo is cake from Costco. Yep, that's the best there is.
It does help.0 -
Yeah, I almost licked my screen when I saw that blackberry bagel thing.0

It's only hard because you're making it hard.
No one is going to force garbage down your throat.
If you want to eat healthy, you'll find the options.
If not, you won't. It's that simple.0 -
But where is the pizza?0

Oh and when I did visit NYC the cupcakes were the size of a cereal bowl. Those things were crazy! Constant access to those would NOT be a good thing.0

Huh, funny--whenever I walk past Magnolia and see that line, none of the people in it look like locals. Now it's beginning to make sense.0 -
haha I went nuts when I first moved here. Pizza place right below me, delicious places on every corner. I've finally learned a little self-control; just a little though0

OK, I hear you on the stealth dashi in everything--it does make being veggie difficult (and when I lived in Tokyo I thanked God that I don't have the shellfish allergy the men in my family have). But cake? It's better in Tokyo than in NYC. And I can't imagine how they'd be hiding any fish in it...0 -
move to Canada.0

And another image:
(Yes, I am aware that obesity is correlated with poverty, and this map could just as easily be an income map. But NYC still has considerably lower obesity rates than other parts of the US.)0 -
man i would love to be able to stroll down to Korea Town for dinner tonight.0

Where exactly can you eat? I think it was you that was complaining that Miami had only fried foods too. If not, I apologize, but I really don't think it's that hard to find a balance.0

There are also a gazillion places to buy salads here.... and lots of different combinations. Most are healthy as long as you get a lowfat dressing, and maybe cut out cheese or carbs. I have been hating rejecting the free bread that comes with many of them though:)0
