Excellent. We've had the bacon post, the vegans-are-hypocrites post and now the ramming-it-down-your-throat post. It took a while but I think we're done and we can all go home now.

Yep, sounds about right. That's me. Single minded zealot.
I'm even more impressed now. Hats off to you knocky1. Amazing. I probably walk a bit more than that but, aside from a bit of weight training at home, that's my lot.

I've never used coconut fat, must try it though .... thanks
That's alright. I'm the same with smoking. I know it's bad for me but I still do it. Also, I have to go into another room in the house and shut the doors and open the windows if my stepdaughter decides she's going to have a bacon sarnie. The smell makes me want to retch for the sky.

You stated earlier:
That's boll0cks, vegetarians in general are healthier than the fast food meat obsessed increasingly obese masses.
You also stated:
That's also boll0cks; humans have evolved to take advantage of a variety of food sources. We are omnivores not carnivores, our canines teeth are remnants of a time before our ancestors controlled fire when they ripped raw meat from bones; in the same way increasing numbers of humans never develop wisdom teeth as large powerful chewing jaws have become redundant. Humans will continue to evolve, animal protein is no longer needed.
That's boll0cks, meat played a role, carbohydrates were and are essential to power our larger brains.

You may be right, I hope not. Giving up meat does not bother me at all, been thinking about it for a while before I met here. Doing my first veggie meal tonight
Just enjoy yourself, if the company is good the meal will be.

My daughter is similarly committed and has been since the age of 14. She has studied many scientific and medical research articles about the benefits of a vegan diet.She is even moving to India next month, partially because a vegan life is easier to follow there.

Your first statement is complete bollocks. There is an element of truth in the second one.

The buddhist centre in Hove does good vegan meals.

is she sure about that? vegetarian, absolutly, but vegan? they consume an awful lot of milk, ghee, yoguart, cheese, you'd have to know what does and doesnt contain some animal fat, just like here.

The most curious thing..
You are aware that bollocks are made of meat?

I've no idea but, yes, I'm aware they use yogurt a lot but she will be living in an ashram so I think the diet is not standard Indian veggie.

My girlfriend is vegan and the meals she cooks are A++
I bloody love meat but really don't miss it when she's cooking.

The Frau used to be vegetarian. She cooked some excellent stuff. And vegetarian restaurants can be quite inventive. I think the key is a few different textures.

Girlfriend is vegetarian, I'd say we're about equal in terms of cooking but some of her recipies are very good. And I did a pretty decent bowl of quorn nachos that was just as good as the real thing. The only reason I still eat meat is because I enjoy it too much.
