So you're saying the Meditteranien Diet thing is a marketing myth?

They're certainly convincing. I suppose that's the idea.

Is it that you think the actual 'diet' doesn't *work* (fresh fish, veg and olive oil, as the ads say.. heh) or that it doesn't *happen*?

Though if it makes you a randy 90 year old like on them ads, I'm not sure it's such a good thing anyway :p

I generally cant stand any processed chicken. Look at the *meat* really closely...see the lil bubble shaped pockets? Ever seen that in a real piece of chicken? YUCKO! I would rather eat Spam.


Hey! Don't knock the Sponge Nuggets...little sweet and sour sauce and hot mustard...and it actually does taste like chicken! :D

Well, a small SUBSET of mediterranean people MIGHT have eaten like that... back in the MIDDLE AGES :D
Even so... people who had easy access to fish usually did not have easy access to olive oil... given that olive trees around here are usually grown on the drier, inner parts of the country.
Our traditional food does include one heck of a lot of olive oil, but it also includes a lot of lard. Most of our typical food is based on pork, lard and salt... our average chorizo has 50% fat, some of our most famous cheeses have up to 80% fat, geez, how can that be healthy?
I really dont know where they got this stereotypical mediterranean diet. Maybe its more common in greece or something... *shrug*

Interesting... I guess they just picked up a stereotype and built on it. The scenes in the ads do look quite "middle age" ish :)

Portugal is considered Mediterranean? :confused:

"Super Size Me"....roflmao....NEWS FLASH...IF YOU EAT ALL FAST FOOD...IT IS BAD FOR YOU...

lol I don't need a movie "documentary" to tell me this. Other than for mild entertainment value (and to bash evil fast food corporations like McDonalds for selling BuRgErS OF DeAtH), what's the point of that movie? Is there a point I'm missing...?

Is it our fault for lacking self-control, or...

uh yea..

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS!

Heh, I guess technically the mediterranean stops in gibraltar so we are just outside it :p
But there's not much of a difference between us, the spanish, italians, greeks. We all love our olives, wine and cheese ;)

France likes wine and cheese too don't they? It's like their only two major exports besides nuclear power...lol... ok maybe that's an exaggeration.

I ate KFC last week and I didn't take a dump for two days. Just thought you might like to know.
