Corporate and Rich Corn and Sugar growers in the U.S. have for 100 years received government subsidies which have essentially made corn syrup and sugar free staples of the U.S. diet.
The pharmaceutical and medical industries have also reaped the rewards of the 'sugar-poisoning' of U.S. children.
Profits go better with Coke.

Salt is also a big problem. The modern diets of many Asians are full of salt, sugar, and fat.

The big problem with sugar is diabetes and all the problems that it creates (including coronary)

Asians in fact are eating a lot of sugar, especially the women. You can see it in Korea, China, Thailand, Taiwan. Too much KFC, McDonalds, Burger King, Pizza Hut.
Even Pattaya bar girls are becoming chubbier, it is a big difference to ten, fifteen years ago.
Added sugar is the cause of most American's illnesses. How is it in Europe? Asians don't eat much sugar added.
The sugar industry is something that, ohhhhh, must not be touched (ever attended an organ concert at the Balboa Park in San Diego? Organ paid by sugar barons 100 years ago).
The doctors who prescribe treatments for their patients who are obese: Not to be touched
The doctors who prescribe treatments for their patients with diabetes: Not to be touched
The stuff in the injections that diabetic patients give themselves 3 time a day for decades: Not to be touched
All of that can be prevented, and even stopped (yes, diabetes can be stopped) by stopping to eat added sugar
