According to the Huffington Post, Maria Gomes Valentim is now the oldest person in the world, born in Brazil in 1896.
She says her secret to living 114 YEARS is that she eats a roll of bread every morning.
Yes, a roll.
I had the great luck of meeting the oldest woman on Utila island yesterday. She won’t tell me her age, but she is definitely the oldest because she has outlived every one of her friends. When asked for her secret to longevity, she says, “I poop every morning.”
There you have it, ladies and gentlemen: Eat a roll. Poop a roll. Live forever.

Little Known Fact. The original title of that song “Tootsee Roll” was “Poop a Roll”. Didn’t make it past the sensors.
I’m gonna live twice as long as her.
I have an “Exit Interview with Mr. Brown” every morning.
