At first, I thought: “I must be mineral deficient. Or maybe I need more concentrated protein. I’ll eat more sea vegetables. I’ll just add more nuts and hemp seeds and drink more green juice. Then the cravings will stop.”

LOL

Veganism is based on love and compassion, doncha know.
When she went public with meat-eating, she started getting texts from vegans wishing her dead.

She confided to close vegan friends that she craved animal protein and their concern was for the movement, not her well-being...

One more election cycle and she votes Republican.

Poor, sick, woman.

Obsessed and guilt-ridden is no way to go through life, sweetie.

My sister-in-law was a vegan for 30 years until she got a job require jet travel every week and was running out of gas. I fed her my special “spaghetti and meatballs” and she was shocked-shocked at how much energy she had the next day, plus it tasted great.

It reminds me of that new term orthorexia – the idea that we can become unhealthily obsessed with eating the “right, perfect foods.”

Never heard of it but I have met people who fall in that category. Not just eating to keep your body healthy and happy or even a foodie but trying to feed their soul with physical foods.

Thinking that just by eating in a certain way they become "holy" which gives them licenses to abuse the people around them.

Of more importance, the Sun came up this morning and set this evening without any help from two unknowns (Alex Jamisson & Morgan Spurlock).

And for a while, I thought many of the world’s problems could be solved if more people ate this way. We could end hunger if we fed grain to people instead of cattle. We could end global warming if we reduced the fertilizer, trucking and refrigeration required to produce meat. We could end the obesity epidemic.

I used to work with an outspoken (read: loudmouth) vegan.

One of her favorite things to do when she'd go to McDonald's with us was to order large fries and pontificate about how bad the other food was for us (and the planet).

I let this go on for quite a while, always making a point to bring up her french fries in conversation, and how much better than us she really was.

One day I called her out, and showed her the 'ingredients list' for McDonald's french fries: cooked in beef tallow. She practically vomited on the spot.

A few years ago I heard she was living in SF and had given up the vegan life.

Well, Alexandra’s a little slow on the uptake.

It only took me eight years and gaining 40 pounds to realize that vegetarianism and veganism are not healthful for everyone, certainly not for me.

Mmmm... Bacon! We’re having bacon cheeseburgers for dinner tonight. Mmmm... Bacon!

In five minutes I shall begin the grilling of two tenderloins wrapped in bacon. What I don’t want to force tonight will be a sandwich tomorrow. On a hamburger bun. With sesame seeds. That’s vegan, isn’t it?
