The french dont snack!? I dont know about that one.
I will point this out before I continue about what I just noted though.
Your referencing a "times of india" page, they dont seem to care about factchecking on this website. I see alot of dubious health claims there.
Fresh produce
French cuisine prioritizes fresh, seasonal, local, and minimally processed foods. Home-cooked meals are an everyday affair, and there’s a cultural emphasis on knowing what goes into your food. Processed and fast foods, while popular, are restricted to an occasional treat only.
Active lifestyle
The French walk a lot, and the infrastructure is designed to encourage people to do so as well. People often walk briskly, use public transport, and spend time outdoors, which helps burn calories and maintain a healthy weight.
Americas food is laden with chemicals, and places like canada have terrible public transit and walking infrastructure.
But NO SNACKING. I call bullshit on that one, were talking about a place who invented Hors d'oeuvres and Charcuterie Boards.
Hors d'œuvre in French literally means 'outside the work', that is "not part of the ordinary set of courses in a meal". In practice, it is a dish which stands on its own as a snack or supports the main course.
A charcuterie board is of French origin and typically served as an appetizer on a wooden board or stone slab, either eaten straight from the board itself or portioned onto tableware. It features a selection of preserved foods, especially cured meats or pâtés, as well as cheeses and crackers or bread.
Goûter is the French verb for “to taste”. But its noun form, le goûter, refers to snack time for children. Le goûter usually falls around 4pm, and can be served to kids at home, at school, or during after school activities.
Press X to doubt.
The average French person, including both men and women, consumes around 1,777 calories per day. This is lower than the average calorie intake in countries like the United States (2,103 calories) and the UK (1,929 calories).
the 400 calories a day arent the sole reason french people are skinnier, its a whole combination of things.
If I eat more than 1000 calories ill gain weight unless im physically active like jogging or doing hard physical work. But most people can eat 1000 calories and be just fine.
I like to think my slower metabolism would have meant I lived longer but the cardiac sensitizing and hyper parathyroid cancelled that out with some extra years taken out on top.
Again ill point out that american food is meant to get you addicted and leaving you hungry, and social influencers are being paid to say that these are "healthy" snacks.

YouTube is simply the latest medium that is marketing potentially unhealthy foods to children.
"It's not surprising that child influencers are promoting junk foods on social media given the fact that many food and beverage companies have been targeting children and young people with their advertising for years," said Kate Sessions, director of marketing at Counseling Degrees Online.
She noted that studies have shown that children who are exposed to food advertising are more likely to consume high-calorie, low-nutrient foods and beverages, which can contribute to obesity and other health problems.
"The issue of marketing junk food to kids has been a contentious one for some time, with many advocacy groups and health experts calling for stricter regulations on food advertising aimed at children," said Sessions. "In many countries, there are already regulations in place to restrict such advertising, but enforcement can be difficult, especially when it comes to social media influencers who may not be subject to the same rules as traditional advertisers."
What you gonna do? Blame the children? Blame the parents?
Anyone but the fucking corporations and government? Asinine.
A good example of what I was thinking of when I said being paid to say this junk food is healthy.
