Warren Buffet is not health freak. He enjoys life and according to his own words is "one quarter Coca-Cola"

>"If I eat 2700 calories a day, a quarter of that is Coca-Cola. I drink at least five 12-ounce servings. I do it everyday."

Really funny:

>Asked to explain the high-sugar, high-salt diet that has somehow enabled him to remain seemingly healthy, Buffett replies: "I checked the actuarial tables, and the lowest death rate is among six-year-olds. So I decided to eat like a six-year-old." The octogenarian adds, "It's the safest course I can take."

What do you expect? ;) "Warren Buffett, who through Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A) (BRK.B) owns about 9.3% of Coca-Cola's (KO) outstanding shares"

That is interesting. Goes against what I read, "what do you want to be remembered for? Longevity." which given what you just quoted must have just been a joke.
His daughter said that he does not drink water, he just drinks coke. He also eats lots of burgers and steak, I dont understand how his body remains in good health with all that junk food.
