    I was shocked by how many different American fast food chains I saw in Tokyo. It seemed like they had just as many fast food places as America but without all the fat people.

    I think it might be due to a fast metabolism and self control.

    Fast food is trash but KFC's fried chicken is delicious, KFC as a Christmas meal is kinda sad though.

    KFC or any fastfood restaurant apart from Jollibee ? I would have to be extremely desperate and probably not even then.
