How odd that it is not the case here - In fact, hillfolk tend to be far healthier than their in-town counterparts... and they drink right out of the creeks, too... no fluoridation or chlorine, no pasteurizing of milk... eating about any critter that comes along, and cooking it in lard or fresh (real) butter.
I find it humorous that just a generation has gone by since all Americans (less the cities) ate what the land provided, and didn't have to bow down to the FDA to tell them what is good and wholesome.
You don't know what you are missing.
Sounds almost idyllic until one begins examining health records and vital statistics.
