I wonder about the Scrapple Line here in the US. I think it runs North-South, somewhere West of Virginia. To the West, nobody has heard of scrapple. To the East, it's a common food.

another map:

olive oil and tomatoes are significantly more healthy than butter and potatoes

but of course there's other factors

Maybe they were actually 90 instead of 100. Nobody cared that much if the local church in Italy put the year of birth as 1917 vs. 1922 on a baptismal certificate completed years after the fact. Parents lied so they could keep their kids out of school. The govt. didn't care to audit them.

I'm Romanian and we usually cook with sunflower oil. Olive oil is considered a "delicacy" and used mostly in salads, and butter is too expensive for most people to use in cooking.

I’m talking 100 year old people who survive the most absurd health conditions doctors swore it would kill them. I really can’t explain what keeps my family alive other than chain smoking and olive oil.
