I love vegetables. My meals always include a green, rice/couscous and either poultry or fish for protein.

No meat or fish, do eat (organic) eggs yogurt milk. Think most of the time my diet is med. I panic when I run out of olive oil (or butter)

I don't think I could live without some meat, but I understand and respect vegetarians. Meat can be heavy on the body sometimes, if I ate steak everyday I am sure I'd feel like shit.

Qutting meat for a while could help me out on adding more vegetables. I love fruit but I neither enjoy nor feel like having salads.

Plenty of veggies with a protein source. A fish fillet with a nicely dressed salad is the ideal plate for me

Excluding Gyro with patatines and Pastitsio I think greek food is really healthy (as most Med food). Pame na fame!

Related story: A mexican friend of mine told me mexis and argies eat somehow same amount of meat but the latter got not so many health issues because they drink Mate... lol do you agree?

It must have something to do with mate indeed. People here don't eat especially healthy at all, and this plague called veganism is already a thing too.

Mate has a shitton of micronutrients and is usually drank by the liter. I feel amazing when I drink mate.

Brazilian mate is fresh and powdered yerba, while Argentinian mate is coarse and stationed, y el mate Uruguayo son las cenizas del abuelo. (Nah seriously, Uruguayan mate is a psyop. It has very bad taste and gives me both nausea and headaches. Y pensar que se hace todo en Brasil...)

Haha yeah, I try to limit the amount of red meat I consume.

Staple of my diet is pork.
I come from a region where having pigs essentially meant guaranteed survival. We were occupied by the Ottomans, and when they would come to take their taxes, they would grab chickens, goats, sheep, the only thing they would stay away from was pig. Therefore most households always kept pigs, because that could guarantee that your family would be fed and no foreign invader will take it. We later became most famous pig traders and merchants in all of Europe.

So when I go for a meat, it is usually pork, since we have mastered every single way to prepare it, and it is always delicious. Not healthy, but extremely delicious.
I like vegetables a lot and I eat them even for breakfast.

I have seen cigarettes there, I like to have a Cuban cigar along with my scotch few times a month, usually on my reading nights.
