Same for anyone who eats the same things obese people eat. When I was
going to school in midwest - it was a town with no black or hispanic,
whenever I did grocery shopping, I watched who bought those *ground
beef". People who were fatter than the avergage.

It was the time I started cooking - mainly spaghettei, and I learned
immediately that those *ground beef* had too much fat. I saw cube
sirloin, bought it, smasked it and used it as ground beef. At the
time, I didn't see packages labelled ground sirloin.

Why do peole buy ground beef? I'd say budget. Why do people buy sugar
loaded, artifcially falvored jouce? Budget. Why do people eat bad
food? because it is cheaper.

I sometimes buy ground beef to make hamburgers or meat loaf. Please tell me
my height and weight, Amanda.

If weight were inversely proportional to IQ you'd weigh like a ton.

And nearly ½ of all black women are obese, as the poster stated.

Stupidity most likely....high in fat, calories, likely too high in
synthetics used by the cattle people, and ground in with the
meat is lips and assholes. Yummy.

They choose bad food (and too much of it) because they are stupid.
Veggies are still pretty cheap (and most healthy if not being picked
by Mexicans who drop their pants and shit all over the place instead
of going to potty, giving consumers e-coli). I could live quite well
on 15-20 dollars a week. So could they. If you'd follow these
blackies around for a week, you likely see that some of their
money goes to other wise options, like lottery tickets and cigarettes.

Who can live on veggie only? It's not practical.

What????? Being a vegetarian is not for me, but I have several amazingly
healthy friends who haven't touched meat in years. Where on earth do you get
your ideas from, Amanda?

"Supersize Me" was shown on Canadian TV last night. This is the storry about
the chap who ate nothing but McCrap for 28 days. He was dying in the end.
Some statistics were given about the fattest states and cities in the union.
Mississippi seemed to be the most obese of the states while Houston and
Detroit contained the most lard asses. In many societies, being fat is a
symbol of prosperity. If I was Mcdonalds, I would have rolled out armies of
lawyers in an effort to stop this from being shown on TV.

Well.. "dying" is a bit of an exaggeration, don't you think? Certainly
his health suffered, but he was hardly on death's door.

Except for Hindu an sikh families of Indian origin, no family other
than a couple (married or not) with no children or adult single living
alone can live on vegetarianism *healthily*.

A lady from S America who helped clean my place sometimes, told me
about a 16 year old girl she had to take in because her mother was only
buying organic and making the food with no taste which made the girl
not eat and became so thin and sick but the mother's in her own little
world. That is what I meant by "practical".

I know that I talked about "using organic stuff only" and not
vegetarianism, but the same analogy applies.

Indian people can live as vegetarians but they drink milk and eat eggs.
The vegetarian liftestyle of Americans doesn't work for families,
definitely not large-scale.

Bullshit, Amanda. Getting the correct protein level in a vegetarian diet is
simple, although it calls for a change in shopping habits. Anyone who
becomes unhealthy on a vegetarian diet failed to read books, and it's their
own fault.

I believe it most certainly can be done assuming one understands about
nutrition, the various types of proteins (incomplete, complete) and
knows how to organize the menus and diet to include necessary nutrients.

Are you a troll?

.....and it doesn't require diary products, either. Amanda is also
experiencing confusion between vegetarians and vegans. What a ding-tard.

We're going to need the source for your information. For instance, you say
"a lot of people". People you know? What is the size of the sample
population? Three? If you have real information from a real source, we need
web links pointing to the survey(s) or other research.

Correct vegetarian cooking is not rocket science. Anyone who can't do it
probably can't cook *anything* correctly. To learn, all one needs to do is
begin with one of the oldest sources:

And people who do eat meat can still be malnourished. You're trying too
hard to pat yourself on the back and give others too little credit.

Again, I suspect you are a troll.

How would the health of a person be, if that person lived solely on
iceberg lettuce and water for 28 days?

Really. I saw that it was on, I should have recorded it because I have
never seen it. I've wondered what he was ordering every day that made
him so sick.

I didn't say that they can't. But, the probability of people being
malnutritioned is higher among vegetarians than meat eaters. especially
the case with female. I have seen many vegetarian Indian female
students who are victims of malnutrition while never saw one vegetarian
Indian male who suffered the same, not outwardly that is. As a graduate
student in two differnt programs (both sicence), I have met and known
MANY of them.


>You're trying too hard to pat yourself on the back and give others too little credit.


That is your opinion. The vegetarians (Americans) I met have no clue
what nutrition is. The hiardresser, a while woman, I used once - approx
age 29 p - was about 35%. After learnigng that she's a vegetarian, I
asked her what she ate and learned that she's ond of those.

Typical response from those who have nothing constructive to say.

I suspect that your suspicion is based on your bias toward me.

I don't know what they do to the food, but all I have to do is walk into
a Slack Macs, and I can *feel* the coating on my tongue.


When i do get dragged in there by the SO, I *always* get one of the
salad rolls and a coffee.

I can't remember the last time I had a Slak Macs burger........ BLECH!!!


I didn't even buy them when I was o/s back in the early 90's!!

Think of all the people you know who are vegetarians and who you believe are
doing it wrong. How many people, and what age range?

I watched the movie and found his 'experiment' very interesting though I
also know this is "film" and therefore we don't see the whole story. But to
give you an idea of his study here were the rules.

1) No options: he could only eat what was available over the counter (water
included!), (and he had to finish anything he ordered)
2) No supersizing unless offered
3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the menu at least once

It was very interesting to watch and has served to make me less a fan of the
big guys in the fast food world. Morgan did have to quit early because of
his health. His, now wife, then girlfried is a full-time vegetarian chef so
this was a big change for Morgan in both his activities of daily living and
his body having to readjust to meat, fat, huge portion size, etcetera.

I like his ongoing series "30 days" as well.
