However, the Irish of the 1800s lived off potatoes and cows butter SOLELY. Of course, they were extremely skinny because they had to stretch a 3 month harvest across 12 months. But they were not malnourished. There were irishmen living into their 100s at this time.
Of course there was a famous potato blight that killed the crop and starved most everyone to death. But I'm talking about nutrition, not epidemiology
