Riddle me this faggots: If bread is unhealthy, how come

Really makes you think

I too want to live until I'm in my 60s just like every long lasting Italian.

Gabagool!

Italians are lazy shits, that's why.

People who think bread is unhealthy are retards, that's why.

Probably because they eat bread instead of whatever processed shit they pass off as bread in the US

This but also about deli meats.

Italians eat ham and salami every single day, why can't I?

I am firmly of the belief that the dose makes the poison. We don't eat a huge amount of salted meats in one go, which I think is why it doesn't seem so detrimental to us. Also, our portions are considerably smaller than those in other countries.

Other nations look at us because we do nearly all the things deemed unhealthy in American dietetics yet live so long that senility sets in and we simply forget to die. And they call this the Mediterranean paradox. We eat a starch-heavy diet. We eat pork fat. We drink wine. And we eat a LOT of oil and salt. Yet, on average, our people outlive nearly every other populace on earth. Why?
Well, the reality is this: there is no paradox. It's simply that we just eat smaller portions and a wider variety of vegetables than do others. That's all. Yet it seems people seldom to never pay attention to those facts.

Our average life expectancy is 82 years. And we're home to the highest percentage of confirmed centenarians on earth, higher even than Japan.

Fifty percent of Italian men are overweight, 33% of Italian women are overweight, and one out of every three Italian children is overweight. One out of ten Italian adults is obese while childhood obesity rates are well above 30%.

That's still one of the lowest percentages in Europe
