Just going back to the 60's in this thread, when the standard greeting was, "What are you eating?" The really fun thing is that we can see how much we humans are total omnivores. We survive eating nothing but seal and nothing but bananas. I talked to a fellow in Morocco who claimed to have walked across the Sahara eating nothing but bread and dates. I remember back in the 60s seeing a Bild photo spread on a German decathalon star, showing everything he ate in a day - quite a bit, including 1.5 liters of bock beer. See, beer is much underrated as a dietary supplement. Drink more beer! I had a beer the night before my Sunday pass climb, and it completely fixed my overtraining syndrome. My MRHR dropped by 10 beats. Seriously.
