I guess this explains it
Southern Somalia has a large agricultural and international trading component to its economy, thus, in southern Somalia diets are richer in green vegetables, corn, and beans. Southern Somalis, especially those in the cities are more familiar with Western foods such as pasta and canned goods. Northern Somalia's nomadic lifestyle fosters a diet that is heavier in milk and meat. Diets there also have a large component of rice, which is obtained through trade.

So Voltage, Northerners were very healthy and ate natural foods, whereas Southerners liked canned and packed food especially Italian pasta. Gotcha :up:

Why are you guys getting worked up? Are you guys arguing these things are not indigenous to south vs. the north which explains the indigenous Somali sounding names vs. obvious borrowed? :mrgreen:
The Somali diet is low in fruits and vegetables, except for the southern part of the country that has locally grown vegetables.
