That's what the average SEA eats in like 2 days. Its the big bags at any grocery store
Correct. I have not been riding motorbikes since before I could walk, so I cannot do what the locals do. Yet.
No the fuck we don't. A 5kg bag lasts an entire week for a family of four adults
Slight exaggeration for comedic effect.
I'll say.. 25kg in two days is over 42k calories per day. Either south east Asians are literal human machines that do the hardest physical work imaginable or they're all fatter than OP's mom.
I slightly exaggerated how slightly I exaggerated, for comedic effect.
The average south east Asian eats that much? I find that hard to believe. Maybe you mean 2.5 kg? Then I could see that being plausible for a household of four, spread over a week.
