But that whole discussion takes me back to my original point. If somebody has a bug up their butt about what they think other people ought to be eating, maybe it's best to just shrug it off. They can't make you give up bacon, and trying to guilt people into changing their diets is rarely effective - it's just annoying. I'd rather not be annoyed. Yes, evangelical vegans are irritating, but evangelical anythings are irritating. I prefer to just walk away.
