The early settlers, as they point out, also had a far more diverse diet than we do now. In fact, they (partly) ate passenger pigeons out of existence.
It seems to me that China still has this kind of diversity somehow. Going to a large Chinese supermarket is dizzying in the variety of vegetables, dried fungus, seaweed, spices, etc. on display. I wish I knew more about it, and how they maintained that diverse food culture.
