I find it amazing when people travel and eat bad food. Anywhere I travel in the world, I always do my research and shop and eat in places comparable in America. If you are going to travel around the US shopping at Wal Mart and eat fast food, well what do u expect. I could have done the same in Northern Ireland but i chose to read up and try to avoid all the nasty fried fast food places. Bad cheese? California, alone produces some of the highest quality cheeses you can find. Craft breweries for beer, ...the list goes on. I think some of these posters are not very sophisticated travellers. Most decent supermarkets have a cheese section ( not the processed cheese section) that offers an assortment. Ever go to whole foods?
Sorry we aren't millionaires we can't travel like you.
If you live in America, do you still want to live in America, or do you want to move to a foreign country?
After having experienced living in Canada and traveling abroad to many other different countries, I am never living anywhere else but the U.S. Our quality of life, the people, the freedoms, the education, and abundance of opportunities are bar none. I don't care what the statistics say about Switzerland or the Netherlands or wherever. This is the best country for me.

You should be happy where you live, so good for you. You saved yourself by saying " for me " because millions of others say exactly the same about their own countries.

Great points. In California especially, you can get good quality cheeses and as mentioned wines. CA is also the state that has the largest selection and quantity of fresh produce and it's cheaper than just about anywhere else. Only Washington State can compete with that. Meats are good quality here too and I've notice that they are cheaper than many other places too. There are lots of restaurants as well that offer good quality food.
Some people's decision making skills closely resemble that of a squirrel crossing a highway.
