Question

-Is this advantage or disadvantage habit for the Filipinos who are eating to much people.

-I’ve noticed that eating system/habit of the Filipino’s it is one factor that dragging down the country’s citizen into poverty.

-Other nationals also surprised and asking why Filipinos needs to eat several times a day while three times only as the normal feeding.

Answer 1

Many diets encourage snacking, eating every 2 to 3 hours since it keeps the metabolism running leading to better overall health.  Don't hate on the Philipine people.  

Answer 2

Eating habits has nothing to do  about  "dragging down the country's poverty".   It is laziness, lacking ambition, motivation, and the drive to succeed that is preventing people from rising up  from poverty.

The negative thing about eating  too much and eating frequently is  the effect to  the person's  health.

I have not seen anyone  eating so greedily as you have stated. If   your  observation is true, how many obese Filipinos have you seen around?

IMO, there is nothing wrong with eating several times a day, as long as it is  in moderation and one has the capacity to buy.

  

Answer 3

your question is annoying!

what do you mean when you say "......habit for the Filipinos who are eating to much people." DO Filipinos eat people?!!!!!

".........eating system/habit of the Filipino’s it is one factor that dragging down the country’s citizen into poverty." SINCE when does an eating "system" drag an economy down?!

have you thought of your question before you posted here?!!!

and if ever it takes an hour or two or a week  to prepare food, What's it to you?!!!

Answer 4

yea.. do you find a lot of obese filipino? I bet not... mind as well check your country. Wherever the h**l you came from.  

Answer 5

"......eating too much people."   ?????????????????????? who' is eating too much people?

anyway, you're giving the administration an excuse and them to justify that its the eating habit of the Pilipino's that's causing poverty.

don't be surprised if there will be a law in the next two or three years that say's " Pilipino's should eat only three times a day and cooking time should only be 5 minutes max!"

Answer 6

Are you saying that Filipinos are glutton?

Eating habits of the Filipinos doesn't affect the country's poverty situation. We don't eat a 5-course meal when we dine. We just have snacks in between meals.

Where did you get your facts anyway? This is one of the most annoying questions I have seen here.

Answer 7

I don't know where you get your information. But Filipino people only eat 3 times a day and maybe a snack or "merienda" in the afternoon.

And how can you say that "eating system/habit" of the Philippines is a factor that's dragging the country into poverty. Are you serious?

People should eat when they are hungry!

And NO, Filipinos doesn't need 2-3 hours a day just to cook a regular meal. I don't know anyone who take that much time to cook just for normal lunch or dinner.

Answer 8

our eating habits is not the reason for our poor economy.  if anything our eating habits is what makes us cope with our problems.
