I know island food and AA food are slave food, but my family been eating it for years because they know how to cook and clean their own meats properly in the islands.
Plus we don't eat the same thing every day. We grow our plants and food. Grow our own vegetables, etc.
The same thing for AA food. My grandmother is 95 years old and she's still eating island food even though she has Alzheimer's. Her husband died at the age of 85 eating nothing but island food.
Like alot of posters said it's all about moderation and how you prepare your food. My ex girlfriend is AA and her family eats nothing but soul food and they look healthy.
It's the fast food and lack of physical activities is killing us. It wasn't like this 30+ years ago.
