All of which you can get from supplements that are swallowed down with water with a minimum of fuss. Then in your meals you can have, say, mushrooms, which taste better, with the added bonus of whatever the hell mushrooms are good for (on top of the protein and calcium you've already received from supplements). I take spirulina for protein, so no worries there. Pound for pound the best source of protein on the planet!


i think someone is kissing mushrooms' collective ass BIG time. neutral

I just can't get there, Chris. I just can't quite get there. I mean, I eat squid. I like squid. Squid doesn't have that much flavour, but when barbecued without any seasoning nor sauce to dip in it still pleases me. Not so with jellyfish. Not so with tofu. Plain pasta's alright, isn't it? Doesn't bowl you over, but it has something, even without sauce. So it's a texture thing. Again, I'm so close, but it slips away. Off my spoon and back on to my plate. It doesn't want to be eaten. It would rather be somewhere else. It knows the mushroom should be in the game. The mushroom, eagerly: "Put me in the game, Coach Anx!" but Coach Anx has learnt that lesson. He was successful before, on top of the world even. Winning, flavoursome dishes were all that mattered. Carrots, mushrooms, potatoes, they were the stars. They had to be in the game, it's a results business. The pressure! Alcoholism followed. A far-fetched set of circumstances and a demotion to only working with second string vegetarian food. But you know what? After his initial aloof attitude and inflated sense of status, Coach Anx found his way back to his roots, back to why he became a vegetarian in the first place, and gosh darn it if he didn't find a way to have fun with it, and wasn't that the whole point? To cap it all off, in spite (or maybe because of nod ) his carefree disregard for results, Coach Anx ended up with winning, flavoursome dishes with all vegetarian foodstuffs, including tofu, contributing equally.


you were right about the alcoholism FINE


A seven word reply? I'm giving up on you. Seriously, that was hurtful. You can stick with the men who like having sex with men, for all I care!

You love tofu with curry powder and cracked pepper on it. I love bisexual half Thai men, with a wig on, fully shaved, speaking in their highest register and buying me t-shirts. Let's not play this game, Carrie.

I'm about to be 19, and ive been thinking about becoming a Vegeterian for some time now. I wanted to know , what do vegeterians eat and how are Vegeterians healthier than people who eat meat. I eat meat but im willing to give it up, cuz I always thought it was wrong for an animal to be killed just so man could eat.


May I ask why you think it's wrong to kill and eat animals? If you think it'll start too much drama, nevermind. Just curious as to your philosophy.

I know you didn't ask me but I agree with someone else already said. It's not killing the animals to eat thats wrong. It's the way it's done. They are caged in mass factories, treated in the most cruel ways as if they're just stuffed animals (especially chickens, seeing the KFC treatment of their chickens has scarred me for life). It's just wrong the ways it's done and it's done all in the name of money. I'm a vegan but if I got to know folks who owned a farm and treated the cows and other animals on their farm like they would their pet I would definetly eat the dairy the animals produced

Oh. Hell. Yes.



PS. I heart tofu.

As Anxy says, must be firm, and preferably fried. But I, too, don't mind it raw if it's high-quality stuff.

I'd just like to add something to this thread, to you darkknight.

I hate it when meat eaters query my choice to be a vegetarian (I don't mind telling them my reasons if they're genuinely interested but when they then try to tell me the reasons we were all made to eat meat and why I'm wrong to be a vegetarian, then I get annoyed).

Similarly, there does exist amongst some vegetarians an attitude of "you must eat this/you must not eat that" which is just as irritating to me.

What I'm saying is this. Follow your own rules. If you don't like the thought of the suffering of battery chickens but can't give up meat, chose to eat and buy only free range (ditto for eggs). If you want to give up beef, pork, lamb and not go to the trouble of finding vegetarian cheese or free-range eggs, then don't sweat it. Only you can decide what's in your heart and what your own motivation is for being vegetarian and how far you wish to take it.

I do congratulate you on starting to think about where your food comes from and the implications and really wish you well with it. I'm available by orgnote if you want to ask any questions.

Much love,
x
