>Regarding veganism -I think the problem is that many vegans
>don’t make sure to get complete proteins in their daily diets.

This is an odd comment that comes up regularly. The best counter is to suggest the person asks their doctor how often protein deficient vegans or vegetarians are seen in their practice. And then ask what the food related problems they do see often are.

i read the book too, went vegan for a while, then decided it was impossible to do while in mexico, so i’m waiting to go back to the states where there is more option, and in the mean time just trying to be as healthy and cruelty free as possible.

It’s not really an analogy. She’s saying she’s shocked that people seem to care more about the comfort of food animals (which she cares a lot about), than they do about civil rights for a group of people. She’s not saying one is “like” the other. It’s a contrast to highlight what people seem to care about, and it’s a good one. Much better than simply saying, “I wish more people voted for gay civil rights.”

Anyone else actually like chickens MORE than most people in Hollywood, or is that just me?

I’m a vegan . I’m a construction worker. I can lift double my weight . If my washing machine breaks down I have a washboard to spare . Before I was vegan I weighed 182lbs , had 28% body fat and was on disability . (I have had Lupus for 20 years) BTW Chick Peas have more Iron (there are a littany of other vegan options that do as well) than ANY meat . Anything in excess of 12% of your daily calories from protein damages your kidneys and it is impossible unless you eat crap to get less than the 8% you actually need. But this isn’t about that.

Samantha was attempting to make a point about inequality morons . She actually blogged in favour of animal welfare standards the previous day. I don’t even know why I am dignifying this with a response.

@ quirkygirlkitten

I totally agree. I’ve been a vegetarian for 18 minutes and I’m finding it easier than I thought.

Viva la Vegan!

i don’t think eating animals is wrong, but i do think the way we mass produce animals without regard to them as having feelings is very wrong, they are tortured. not to mention the harm that msg and all the other crap they cram into them hurts us. i wish everyone could just raise our own!
