Why does the standard American diet disgust me so much, when I'm American (USA)?

Update:

A.J. I was referring to all the burgers, animals, fried food, sugared cereals, hot dogs and refined wheat I see people eating. It's disgusting. I live in Los Angeles. So yes. I have many choices too

    There is no standard American diet. There are characteristics of excessive sugar, salt, fat, processing, but food in the USA has huge variability because of the multi-cultural backgrounds and diversity. We are often higher in meat and cheeses, but there are vegetarian and vegan options.

    If you stated what foods you eat, I could tell you what issues there are. Maybe it's lack of education, which is very common in the USA. I live in Las Vegas, with massive choices.
