I've been vegetarian for 30 years. If I had kids they could eat whatever they wanted, but the food I</> prepared for them would be vegetarian. It's really not difficult to eat healthily as a vegetarian if you know the basic food groups. It's not rocket science. Vegetarians are no more likely to poison their kids with junk than anybody else.

Where's the drama?

[(Anonymous)]

Because a shocking amount of people don't know the basic food groups and don't know how to prepare balanced vegetarian meals that aren't some form of salad or boiled pasta.

[(Anonymous)]

But those people are going to feed their kids badly whether they're veggie or not. Meat isn't a panacea. It's not the Diet that's the problem, it's the diet.

[(Anonymous)]

Sure, but let's not pretend the results are identical. If a bad vegetarian diet lacks protein, a bad non-vegetarian diet likely won't simply because SOME meat will be consumed even if the diet also includes too much fat, carbs, etc.

[(Anonymous)]

If you're so shitty at meals that leaving out the meat creates a protein deficiency, the protein deficiency is the smallest of the problems.

And that's of course before accounting for the fact that veg*ism isn't just "leaving out the meat".

[(Anonymous)]

Those people wouldn't be able to feed their kids properly anyway. Adding meat doesn't make this diet better. McDonald's and fried chicken isn't going to help those kids.

[(Anonymous)]

... unless one of the problems is a lack of protein, in which case burgers and fried chicken aren't the healthiest sources of protein, but they're still protein.

[(Anonymous)]

Since we're talking in pure hypotheticals here, this isn't even a helpful scenario. Most Westerners (at least Americans) actually OVEREAT meat, so there's that. I am very comfortable going out on a limb here and suggesting that people who maintain long term vegetarian diets are probably more likely to pick healthier choices (including alternative protein sources) than the average omnivore.

[(Anonymous)]

NO ONE in any developed nation getting three squares a day is lacking in protein. You'd literally have to be starving to death.

Do you even know how much protein is recommended per day? Have you checked a nutritional label recently?

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you. I actually agreed with the secret except for the veg*ns and health risks problems.

I am positive that all those morbidly obese people with their diet-based health risks are not veg*n.

You can get morbidly obese (ovo-lacto) vegetarian people whose problem is too much fat from sources like oil and butter content, too much sugar, too much dairy, too much bread and not enough vegetables.

[(Anonymous)]

Except that you don't.

[(Anonymous)]

Ah yes, I'm sure you have met every vegan and vegetarian in the world.

[(Anonymous)]

I guess you haven't ever heard of "pudding veg*ns". :D
