why is food cheaper in Asia?

463 viewsEconomicsOther

I live in the U.S but I am Asian. When I visit Asian countries I’m always surprised that food overall (groceries and restaurants) tends to be cheaper, even in wealthier countries like Korea and Japan. Even without tipping culture they seem to be able to pay their workers and keep prices low? How do they do it?

Labour but more importantly food quality of raw ingredients is also less. All the prime stuff gets exported
