High fructose corn syrop as a sweetener and sugar replacement wasn't a big thing yet in 1971 so we shouldn't think of today's American and European diets. Likewise, I believe one isotope analysis placed Little Miss P in the Lavrion area near Athens. Greece in the 1960s was still a relatively poor country. I am pretty sure the scientists doing isotope analysis know what they are talking about. In any case, her isotopes show that she had a sudden, dramatic change of diet in the period leading up to her murder. So, whatever the story of regional diets, she moved to a place with a vastly different diet.
Yes, that's the key point. And it sounds like the diet analysis doesn't contradict the possibility that she is from Greece.
