Moving from asia to europe, I find sugar way more prevalent here in europe. Desserts everywhere and sweeter. Drinks are sweetened, breads are sweetened. My sugar consumption has increased significantly compared to my asian life and I don't even have a sweet tooth.

Haha, for me moving the other direction was shocking. What do you mean the desert is red bean paste? Beans are not sweet! Where's chocolate?!

Over time though I got used to it and started enjoying it, now that I live again in Europe I actually miss Asian deserts

I would agree that Asia is a much better place to go to work on weight loss, but not because of food or sugar. They have the JSA, Roscosmos, and CNSA, whereas Europe only has the ESA.
