While undoubtedly true, Wally, they are exceptions rather than the  
rule.  And there is nothing that says they couldn't have lived much  
healthier, longer lives.

Like you agreed in principle with my statement of a healthy diet, I  
agree in principle with the idea that one size does not fit all.  The  
problem happens when people, not necessarily you!, use that to justify  
eating all manner of foods that are not best for human flourishing,  
not of the types and classes of foods man has been eating since time  
began.

What it comes down to is, sure, it's a free country; go eat all you  
want of whatever you want.  But just don't come on here and try to get  
support for it.

My two cents.
