And the average life expectancy was 30-40 years.

But since you brought it up...do you notice more obese people in the vegetarian restaurants or in McDonalds? Just curious.

Well, I haven't been in a McDonald's in over 10 years, so I assume that there is going to be more obese people there. See below.

Have a steak, but not the WHOLE steak. Mix it with some veggies, maybe throw in a baked potato. Oh, and of course you have to be active too, or else anything you eat is going to wreak havoc on the body.

I dont know to which your refering, but there is evidence that ski's and snow shoes were both a part of early european tribes.

On a more serious note, what vitamins do you miss out on if you are not eating red meat? B12?

I didn't know that! I stand corrected.

I didn't know he will never win the Tour either. He was third last year, riding in support of team leader and winner, Contador.
