Lol yeah right, try telling that to my partner who survives on meat pies and energy drinks. Mediterranean diet my aye.

loss mate, but don't knock it till you try it. I just swapped butter for olive oil and it made a difference.

Another bloody article telling us what to eat. I've been eating fish and chips my whole life and I'm fine.

Interesting study but olive oil is expensive as here in NZ. Not everyone can afford to eat like a Greek goddess.

you can get cheap olive oil at Aldi, it's not that bad. Plus you save money by eating less meat.

I've been trying to follow this diet for a few weeks now and honestly I feel so much better. More energy and my skin is clearer. Each to their own I guess 🙂

This is legit though. My grandmother lived in Crete and she was 94 and still gardening every day. The science backs it up.

grandmother sounds like a legend. But correlation isn't causation though, maybe she just had good genes.

Classic media pushing another fad. It's just common sense really - eat less processed crap, more plants. No need for a fancy title.

facts. common sense ain't common these days

I'd love to follow it but my kids would riot if I swapped their nuggets for grilled sardines. Maybe when they grow up.

friendly Mediterranean? Is that even a thing? Be interested to see a version for fussy eaters.

Bit late for this at 10pm, now I'm thinking about what I ate today... it was not Mediterranean lmao
