I guess the Eskimos have to eat it as there's not much choice

@Travelbug "Eskimos" live in arctic regions, penguins are found in Antarctic regions.

@inuviate I just googled it and you're right. I guess they would eat them if they were there though as their diets are so limited
@Travelbug In addition to fish, they eat seals, walruses, polar bear and whale meat. Caribou, too.

@bijouxbroussard but like many in the northern hemisphere, hardly any vegetables. I know they have no choice, but often wonder how they survive with a mostly meat diet.
@Travelbug My brother in law is Inuit. He’s always said it was an example of the adaptability of the human body, based upon environmental factors. They eat what they need, fats and protein ten months of the year, berries and vegetation when it’s available the other two. And they’re said to be very healthy.
