there is more to a medit diet than just what they eat which is bastardized already (no italians dont' sit around eating pasta, pizza, and bread all day like in the stupid mafia movies)
it is also about HOW OFTEN they eat, and HOW MUCH they eat.
the real medit diet you eat 2-3X per day with no snacking... that is it. you snack before a meal and your wife/mom/grandma beats your ass for ruining the meal she worked hard to make you.
none of this 6 meals a day bs that americans do with snacking
