Not a myth. People canned. Just because a green bean or tomato is canned doesn't mean it isn't nutritious. Canned vegetables and fruits don't have preservatives and they don't take a freezer to store.
But the Mediterranean Diet is proving a myth. When Mediterranean people don't do the physical work to grow it as well as eat it, the same health problems we have start to show up.
