Dietary advice

[byron]

After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here's the final word on nutrition and health:
1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
6. French drink lots of red wine, eat excessive amounts of fatty food and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

Can't be that, in my recent experience most people in those countries speak English sometimes better than wot we does. Must be the bl**dy weather (or more likely worrying about it).

How about this one:

The ideal Europe

All the cars are made by the Germans
The French run all the restaurants
The English provide the police
The Italians are the lovers
It is all run by the Swiss

Worst case for Europe

The French make the cars
The Swiss run the restaurants
The Germans provide the police
The English are the lovers
It is all run by the Italians

Trouble is we don't have our boats to play with at the moment and anyway Byron's posts are always worth reading no matter what the subject
