Did you deliberately choose three unhealthy choices?

Brilliant poll.

Mexican, it spends less time inside you.

If its authentic food, it's Chinese by a mile, with Mexican next, and American obesity bringing up the (big fat ass) rear.

If it's take-out/delivery crap, all of the above?

it's probably american, depending what you consider american. as long as you stick to fairly lean cuts of meat, it's got to be healthier than two cuisines where virtually everything is fried in oil.

I'm trying to decide if this is a serious post or not?

American has healthier choices overall. Chinese is generally very bad except for a few items. Some mexican is healthy - just ensure you don't drown your items in cheese/sour cream, avoid ground beef, fried items, etc.

Apparently I heard Mexican food has poo smothered all over it.

Don't take my word for it though.

What is American food? I'm serious- is there a distinctive "American" food in your mind that is as defined as Mexican/Chinese/Whatever? I'm interested because I don't think of American food like that- I think of it as a place where established cuisines are fused, changed, revitalised..
