My body is a temple, which is to say, I let everything in.

I overate on japanese food and burgers last night, thinking it couldn't be so bad, considering I've never seen a fat japanese guy (with the obvious exception of sumo wrestlers). That thought tickled me so much, that I actually decided to do a little research on it. This is what I got:

How healthy is Japanese food?

The average life span of Japanese people is more than eighty years, and this is the longest lifespan in the world. One of the main reasons for the longevity of Japanese is their food. Usually they do not use oil and fat very much, and their way of cooking is simple because for them it is important to keep the texture of food, and to use a lot of different kinds of food material. All of these characteristics of Japanese food are dependent on the fact that they can get fresh food material easily. Japan is an island that has a long shape from north to south. Several mountain ranges run through the country and it is surrounded by sea. This makes it easy to get fresh and varied food material from the sea, the mountains, and the fields of different regions with different climates.

So what the hell was I eating last night? Because I felt like CRAP after -- Not even bursting-full crap, just fried-oil-saturated crap.

Sigh. Another stumble in the long climb to underwear model superstardom.
