      Drake-wow, you corrected me! But in Ro(o)manji they spell it with a 'g'. Props for correcting my mistake!

        i voted american, british, and Italian. I would have voted ancient mediterranian cultures (rome, greece, egypt, and stuff like that) as my favorite, but i guess these were just currently existing cultures.

          nah, mediterranean food is actually more healthy for males than almost any other cultural dish...even rivalling Asian dishes. I've found out that the olives and ocean-heavy dishes in mediterranean food helps keep males physically fit.

          If a male was to only eat Asian and Mediterranean meals he would (probably) be more fit than a man who did NOT eat the same food. However, a male would have to have some physical activity to up his resting caloric burn-rate.

          .....sorry, I just find this kind of stuff fascinating and if it helps some Apolytoners to change their diet, all the better !!!

                    Germanic culture is my bag.

                    I think we all owe Greek/Roman culture quite a lot too...

                      I have realised trolling foolishness is alive and well.

                          Ahh, Bodd's is trying to assert his manliness again... some unfortunate young girl must have seen his junk and laughed uncontrollably at its small size.

                              The only thing you seem to be good for is ill-feeling and unpleasant crap-talking.
