Because most Americans know shit about nutrition. They'll go buy a 5 pack of ramen on sale for $1 where if they like ramen so much they could just buy a package of vermicelli for $1 which would go much farther and is healthier. Plus that's what most Chinese cooks use. What food advice they get is for people with metabolic syndrome and they may not even have those problems. Hence they wind up eating too many carbs or at the other end of the spectrum too much fried foods.

It’s an unprecedented paradox: More Americans than ever are overweight or obese—yet many of those same people are going hungry, forced to rely on food with few nutrients.
