為何愛用韓貨

Why do people like Korean stuff so much?

Just curious really. I'm Korean-American. Personally, I'm fascinated why people are crazy about k-pop, k-dramas, korean food.

 Best Answer:  I get why it wouldn't seem like a big deal to you. I can't speak for non- asians, but I'll tell you my opinion. I'm a British Chinese girl, so I wasn't brought up around anything korean, nor do I know any.

I personally am interested in Japanese culture too, but I started learning korean about a year ago, and I like kpop/kdrama/korean culture and all the other stuff that comes with it.

I don't consider myself like a crazy fan or anything but just from a cultural perspective, I'm fascinated and plan to visit and learn more. I guess you could compare it to any other culture you weren't brought up with, like French or Japanese.

I think for those crazy kpop fans out there, it's really appealing due to fashion, appearances of idols, the dances and just the overall package that kpop music has that is really different to their western experiences.

I've heard multiple views on this kwave but in my opinion, as long as people aren't seriously crazy about it, to the point of stalking people, i reckon it's great that we're getting to know and appreciate new cultures and language of somewhere we found through music / entertainment/ other means

Being into 'k' stuff since like 2008, I think the answer is because it's different, it's unique. I find it very intriguing because it's not often that you see such dramas and music videos quite like the ones from Korea - even the whole road to being a Kpop idol is very different. It's like a whole new world of entertainment. Plus Asians in general have a fixed stereotype- From what I know, people stereotype the girls as being all petite, quiet and like cute anime characters and the guys are not that attractive and smart, so seeing the alternative (even though quite a few Koreans have had plastic surgery) is like a big surprise and opens their eyes up like wow they're so talented and good-looking so they want to dig into it deeper. Also because of the culture differences displayed in kpop/kdrama (eg. men's fashion, men's cosmetics, hairstyles, living together in dorms, 'skin ship', mannerism, etc...), and also because Korea isn't as 'famous' or 'big' as China or Japan; Japan has anime, manga, origami and sushi which are all famous.

上癮食物

Researchers reveal the most addictive foods (smh.com.au Susie Burrell)

Now, recent research completed by the Icahn School of Medicine, in Mount Sinai, and published online by the Public Library of Science has furthered knowledge in this area. Some highly processed foods (including fast food, chocolate, ice cream, cakes and biscuits) have post-consumption effects similar to those of drugs, therefore researchers hypothesised that they could also be linked to addictive eating behaviours. It was thought that foods that contain concentrated amounts of physiological stimulants (sugars and fats), and had quick absorption rates in the body (high glycaemic load), would create pronounced physiological, addictive experiences.

Here are some of the most and least addictive types of food:

Pizza

Rich in processed carbs, fat and salt, the mix of flavour, processed starches used to make the base, and fatty ingredients, give the brain a stimulation overload. If you love pizza, control your intake by choosing thin, baked bases with minimal toppings.

Chocolate

We are not taking about 85 per cent cocoa chocolate here, but the sickly-sweet milk variety many of us cannot stop eating once we open a block. The addition of extra confectionery will make it worse. If chocolate is your vice, stick to small serving sizes and the darker the better.

Potato chips

Another carb and fat overload packed with appealing flavours which may explain why an entire bag disappears in no time. Again purchase smaller packets if you must indulge, and plain is much better than flavoured options.

Ice cream

With so many flavours to choose from, and with confectionery, syrups, nuts and chocolate often added, it is no surprise that we cannot stop at a single scoop. Seek out lower calorie sorbets or gelato in a single scoop when the lure of ice cream calls.

Questions:

Do you have an addiction to food?

What are your favorite food? Why?

In your opinion, what are the addictive types of food?

Who to deal with addictive eating behaviors? Any addictive experiences?

披薩巧克力 10大食物易上癮

【張翠蘭╱綜合報導】美國最新研究發現，最易上癮食物幾乎是高度加工處理食品，以披薩居冠。未沾醬的黃瓜最不易上癮。研究人員希望此研究結果，能有助研發治療肥胖與暴食症等飲食障礙的新法。國內營養師提醒，高度加工食品對身體負擔重，少吃為妙。
看新聞不加蘋果粉絲團對嗎?!
鹽糖過多易肥胖

營養師謝宜芳表示，高度加工食品的鹽和糖分都過高，易引起代謝症候群、高血壓、脂肪肝等。有些店家的披薩好吃，但往往油分及人工添加物太高。她強調，精緻醣類吃太多會引發憂鬱症，建議民眾飲食時別只斤斤計較卡路里，應重視食物處理方法，盡量挑選愈天然且未加工的食品，才不會對健康造成負擔。
《哈芬頓郵報》前天報導，紐約西奈山伊坎醫學院與密西根大學團隊，在第一階段實驗，邀一百二十名大學生對披薩、黃瓜等三十五項食物評分，計算出何種食物最易上癮。第二階段再找三百九十八名十八歲至六十四歲民眾，評估吃這三十五種食物是否會上癮況，再加以評分排序。
黃瓜最不會成癮

結果顯示，披薩最易上癮，其次是巧克力和洋芋片。前十大上癮食物中只有起司非高度加工品，且大多高油分，易讓血糖快速升高。最不易上癮十大食物由黃瓜居冠，全非高度加工品。

先前有研究指刊的報告，是首度探討何種「問題」食物會引發上癮反應，導致無意識過度攝取出，高加工食品、添加脂肪或精緻醣類的食品可能引發上癮般飲食行為，而這份發表在最新一期《公共科學圖書館》（PLoS ONE）
