Why Americans should eat more excrement. - By Kent Sepkowitz - Slate Magazine
The answer to the question is simple but not quite as simplistic as the author puts it. When I go to the US, it always strikes me that you can't find much fresh food in their supermarket: everything is sanitised and vacuum packed. They won't cook beef blue because it's against the law. They may be just ahead of us, I get this as an excuse here too.
I would rather suggest Americans to stop eating shit: dump all crap processed food, stop pasteurising all their "cheeses", eat sushi and beef tartare, fresh vegatables and oysters.
I bet they would soon discover that cooking from fresh ingredients, eating camembert, roquefort, raw seafood is not only better to taste but I also better for the waistline.

be careful ! All camemberts are not raw milk cheeses. Nowadays in France, less than 3% of the total production is made from raw milk. 97% are thermally treated (pasteurised or not) or mechanically treated (micro filtered). Keep your eyes open and choose the good one !
You're absolutely right and I've blogged several times on the subject, including here:
Foodings: All you need to know on Camembert!
I am quite depressed about the last mainstream brand abandoning the AOC -make sure you eat enough unpasteurised cheese!
Alas, convenience breeds apathy back in my home country, and as such I doubt we'll be seeing any remedies anytime soon.
Nice to know someone cares.
We all know we need to eat more fresh fruits & veggies... the hard part is actually doing it! Did you know the recommended daily requirement was recently increased to 7-13 servings of fresh fruits and veggies every day?? If you're having trouble fitting in the daily requirement, you should really look into trying JuicePlus. It's an all-natural whole-food supplement made up of 17fresh fruits, veggies and grains in a simple capsule. Very easy way to get your daily requirement. Check out the website, and if you have any other questions, I'd be happy to help!
Best of health,
