Well here's another anecdote.
My 93 1/2 year old mother (no cancer, heart disease, diabetes, dementia )
hates fruits and vegetables
eats only processed food
never met a trans fat she didn't like
half of her grocery list is twinkie -like foods (cheesecake, candy, Little Debbie)
refuses to eat ANY food from Trader Joes
most lifelong pessimistic attitude on record
no social or other interests at all (lifelong)

Not that I would ever recommend this diet (or life attitude) and I realize an anecdote doesn't mean it's so--it does illustrate that there's other factors in longevity/lack of disease than diet.
