Vegetarian diets are bad for you. A lot of vegetarians are weak due to the lack of protein and B vitamins that build muscle they should get from red meat.

That's why you should only eat vegetarians who take dietary supplements.

I've known a few in my life and they were all insufferable sh*theads.

I'm a vegetarian once removed...I let critters eat the grass, and grains & stuff, then I eat the critters... :)

They need "Wonder Bread". It helps build strong bodies twelve ways!

I can see it like a charm:

Someone's next advertising campaign: 'Helps build strong bodies thirteen ways.'

Well, run it up the flagpole and see who salutes it.

The world would be a happier place if he were only a vagitarian.

YIKES! Did I hit "Post"?!?!?

Did Hitler become a psychotic killer because of vegetarianism, or did he become a vegetarian because he was psychotic in the first place?

I pick item two.

Another intersting tidbit from deep within the article (for those who don't read the links):

So the time has come in this column to make the difficult admission that I was once a long-term vegetarian. Unfortunately I'm currently in remission so there is a lot of self-loathing going on (not to mention malodorous explosions, bad clothes and anti-Semitic thoughts).

In fact, I've wasted 15 years on tofu and beans and now I want to bite the cow again. I want to gnaw a sheep, get some pig on the palate, chew a chicken. But the pernicious vegetarian diet is hard to shake. There is no Vegetables Anonymous, no "sponsor" I can ring when I get the urge to pass on a sausage or a four'n'twenty.

[Repub Bub]

ping!

[mfulstone]

Vegetables are what food eats.

What's a four'n'twenty?

Personally I'm far from a vegetarian but a lot of people at work are trying to lose weight with various means including Atkins and Weight Watchers and this woman with the vegetarian diet seems to be having far greater success than anyone else. And she's eating all the time!!

[SamAdams76]

Even though I don't know of any, I'm sure there are some well-adjusted vegetarians out there who are healthy.

The vegetarians that I know are usually bigtime liberals with all the trimmings. They got the Birkenstocks, burn incense, listen to a lot of 60s psychedelic rock and think George Bush is evil. They also want to save the rain forests, the whales, and they don't want the towns to spray for mosquitoes.

Did Hitler become a psychotic killer because of vegetarianism, or did he become a vegetarian because he was psychotic in the first place?

Option three, actually. He became a vegetarian because it was the only diet that didn't give him indigestion.
