Answer 1

Hi

Do you have the statistic about the hamburgers that they make in India ?

Waiting your feedback

Answer 2

That's true and I think that's sad!!!

Answer 3

I am not sure what your point is. Are you complaining about the eating habits of the USA or congratulating the Indians? Either way please remember the luxury car brand Jaguar is owned by an Indian company, and you could no doubt build 3 or 4 smaller cars using the same energy as is used to build a Jaguar.
