>> Westerners could be genetically programmed to consume fatty foods and alcohol more than those from the east

They say that like it’s a BAD thing.

>> The study suggests it is also linked to depression.

Well, yeah... but only when we run low on fatty foods and alcohol.

It is true. I get depressed when there is no fatty food and alcohol around.

Viva Decadence!! I'll pass on the white rice.

Nothing says summer like a well-marbled, grilled ribeye enjoyed with an adult beverage while dining on the deck.

Tofu and green tea have their places, somewhere, I just haven’t found them yet. :)

*disclaimer - I like a spicy Ma Po Tofu once in awhile, but then, pork is involved. More grease for me!

Western Civilization and beer, wine, liqueurs and spirits are deeply intertwined.

Even the Bible says “fat renders flavor” and “strong drink (wine) sooths the man", thank you God.

As destinies go, this fried-food and alcohol thing isn’t so bad.

I'm glad I'm programmed for fatty foods and alcohol.

I've also been told that my tolerance for a LOT of salt (I salt almost every bite of food and have perfect blood pressure) and tolerance for lactose are due to my ethnicity, as well.

I wonder, if they have seen the British drunk, as compared to Americans? Americans don’t drink half as much as the British.

The BBC report has no details worthy of analysis, nor references. That, and the comments attributed to the principle investigator, tells me this is junk or “pop” (like the music) science.

Thus, a preference for food with a higher fat and alcohol content would have been important for survival.

I will live forever.
