I'll take the steak and death
The Economist on how to live longer:
"Semi-starvation is not, however, a course of action most people would be willing to undertake in the hope that it might prolong their lives. But they might be willing to take a pill. Indeed, a company called Sirtris Pharmaceuticals is already running trials of drugs that affect proteins called sirtuins—a group of enzymes which experiments on invertebrates have shown to be involved in extending lifespan."
It's a quality thing.

"Eat what you want. Die like a man."
I have to admit, though, that the older I get the less appealing that sounds.
