His shoes are leather.

I don't think he's planning to eat them.

We also share our birthday with Princess Di. Not sure what her diet was like, but I'm inclined to believe it included crumpets, just because to an American, that sounds like something everyone from Great Britain probably eats.

Are vegans allowed to consume alcohol?

 

[handiman]

The real question here is, can vegans play defense?

 

[THE HCP]

Carl Lewis was Vegan? Get your mind right @HCP

9 - Carl Lewis - Track Athletics


With 9 Olympic Gold medals, Carl was one of the best-known athletes of the 1980s. He also set a world record for indoor long jump set in 1984 still stands. Carol adopted a vegan diet to assist him in sports and continued it into his retirement.

"I've found that a person does not need protein from meat to be a successful athlete. In fact, my best year of track competition was the first year I ate a vegan diet. Moreover, by continuing to eat a vegan diet, my weight is under control, I like the way I look."

WHO HE PLAY FOR!!??

They can drink like a fish.

But can they eat fish?

Ah, so Dame's ok then.

The vegan diet is excellent. I love it! All the animals I eat are vegans and I'm telling you they are delicious.

 

[BlazerWookee]

This is going to make Wookee happy

On the contrary. Thanks, Walton...

I went to a whole food plant based diet 3 months ago and I love how I feel. It's a work in progress for me because I use to mainly live on convenience food (frozen stuff and restaurants) so I've had to start learning to really cook. But I've found some really delicious recipes and have not missed the animal products at all... I'm to the point where they kind of gross me out a little. There's a lot of misinformation out there but you can easily get all the protein you need from plants.

A vegan diet can be very high protein and low fat. I was never vegan or vegetarian (I always included boneless, skinless chicken breast in my diet, but I ate it over a salad), but by far they healthiest I have ever been was when I was strictly following a high protein, low fat, low carb diet. I always had so much energy, was never injured, slept great and was never tired during the day. I had a very low body fat and actually added muscle mass at an age when most men are losing significant muscle mass every year.

This is me three years ago at age 53. I'm 6'4" and my weight was between 195 and 200. So, basically about the same as Dame (but twice as old):

We should all watch the documentary Cowspiracy: The Sustainability secret. Eating meat the way we do is simply unsustainable (and I fucking love beef and bacon.

Here are 10 plant based proteins that we all should be eating:

You go ahead bro.

That way I can eat your portions of beef and bacon.

OK, for lunch I had a big salad of various greens, scallions, carrots, celery, roasted beets, peppers, avocado, black beans, tomatoes, pickled jalapeno, cilantro and a sprinkle of toasted pepitas. For dinner I am having a smaller green salad and some gazpacho I made from my garden - tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, cukes, scallions, basil, along with tomato juice, sherry vinegar, spices, salt. And a pita bread (white & whole wheat flour, salt, olive oil, yeast, water). Some fresh figs from my tree for dessert.

I harvested my first Oregon figs from my orchard this year.....delicious! Cloned another 5 and they're looking good!

The best thing about a diet based on those high fiber "plant based proteins" is that you are your own walking heat source. Not so good for the global warming problem though.

A true environmentalist vegan would opt for these then to be carbon footprint free

That's sounds great and all, but I want to know is, what kind of cake did you make?

Damn bro! GET IT IN!

I was a vegetarian for about 6 years in my 20s.....when I started traveling I stopped any food rules...tough to turn down home cooked meals on the road...and in some cultures, it's offensive to not sample grandma's curry shrimp or Szechuan chicken..eating local or fresh garden food is the key..

This.

It's easy to get grass fed beef.

Thanks for this thread! It reminded me to pull a package of venison we cut and wrapped last weekend from the freezer for supper tomorrow.
