>Japan doesn't have carb-heavy ultraprocessed foods

Without a doubt they do. One of their most important foods is rice, I don't think there are many cultures eating more carb heavy. For the processing, maybe, what is the actual difference to the US or Europe?

>social tolerance of obesit

Maybe? Although hard to quantify, certainly many Americans want to loose weight.

>or massive quantities

Japan certainly is not suffering from any food shortages and surely you can eat however much you want there.
