Reply #10: Perhaps they all ate like you

Granted, we are predisposed to certain conditions, but to continue on with your diet (and I'm not advocating meat-free, just moderation and eating within proven nutritional guidelines) and act like its some sort of magical destiny to die early of heart disease does seem rather foolhardy.

Vitamins may help, but it does not provide the fiber that you need and all that meat is chock-full of hormones and antibiotics and preservatives.

Hey, whatever, though, it's your body and your life.

BTW, I've noticed that it's become a cute little game to taunt the vegetarians in the Lounge lately. When we respond, we're being militant and preachy, but just remember who's starting these threads. We're not the ones starting threads about other people's eating habits. Frankly, I don't care what anyone else eats. Why should you?
