Quote from r-in:
I have to say, WHO CARES! Cripes my Dad lived to 89 eating lard sandwiches when he was a kid and using most of a stick of butter on his sandwiches througout his life. Eggs, oh yea he ate eggs for breakfast, and bacon, and buttered toast.
My Mom made 87, but suffered strokes from about 80 on. I will eat and do what I want. I have had enough of the what is good for me gang. I can pay for a study to say Arby's will make me live an extra 10 years. If I had a nickel for all the studies that contradicted themselves I'd be retired 5 years ago. Hell, coffee is good for me, red wine(wine is for fruits, my 2 cents), red meat will add years, a vegie diet, I may live forever. Money buys you an opinion of how long you will live. Common sense tells you what is right.
Cripes my best friends Mom smoked a pack a day until she was 80. 2 Heartattacks, and she kept smoking another 5 years. I don't know, maybe she would have lived forever if she didn't smoke.
I would like to remove any federal money from these useless studies. I don't know about you, but I can figure out when I am doing something that may not be the best for me living forever.
