"Wow, tough break Luara. I'm lucky to not have any food allergies (so far). I like beans, grains, legumes, tofu, tempeh, quinoa, and seitan (wheat gluten) for protein. I try to eat a good variety of foods, focusing on…"

"Hey Luara,
After looking at the info you posted I have upped my B12 supplements. Like you said, it can't hurt. And there's no reason to even chance not having enough!! I also got my omnivore parents onto B12 sublingual…"

I'm not too fond…"

"Wow..."Glucovera"...that doesn't sound too much like a scam. Magic pills don't make you healthy...eating healthy food makes you healthy. If it is made from aloe vera and you think aloe vera is good for you....just eat…"

"Pretty sure they have a synthetic now. And if they hadn't used pigs, they would have come up with another way to do it. So sorry, I'll go on "knocking" the killing of pigs."

"I looked at it, but I am skeptical that he somehow knows that a blood test is unreliable when all the other doctors seem to think it is OK. Not that most doctors know much about nutrition. I take sublingual sometimes and a multi-vitamin…"

John Jubinsky said… I'm glad you're fighting for animal rights but I hope you realize that some people are never going to agree with you. They just are not coming from a humane place and really don't care to be. Sometimes it is best to finally say that everybody is entitled to his or her opinion and enough has been said about it.

Sameer said… Saw your comment - "No one 'needs' animal protein, so lets leave those animals alone". Very nice to read that.I am a huge animal lover.

Ruth Anthony-Gardner said… - There's a 6 member Vegan Atheist group. If kyou're looking for company among the rare. Actually I run across vegan descriptions every day while looking for people to invite to the group, but y'all don't seem to get together so much.

- Greetings, Pamela! I'd like to invite you to a group where we talk about anything on our minds, Hang With Friends. :D

Joseph P said… - Yeah, I tried to make the same point, as you saw. It doesn't seem to have gone over very well.

Heh heh heh. Yeah, the place was freaking dead before Bruce showed up.
He responded to Asharu's post, calling her out on details, such as only 2% of all convicted rapists serving jail time ... and then she went ballistic, engaging in personal attacks and long, emotional diatribes, rather than arguing back rationally and conceding points where she may have been wrong.
... and then I get labeled a troll-enabler, for supporting rational discourse. What a freaking madhouse.
Without Bruce's contribution, Asharu's post would have prompted a few pats on the back and responses of, "Amen, sing it, sister," and the group would be completely dead again, right now.

- Are we women SO fucking defenseless we need protection from WORDS now?? Sorry, I'm just NOT that much of a victim.
Thanks. I was contemplating saying something similar, but I hadn't yet. Good to hear the same thing from someone else. The women outnumber the men vastly, and yet some of them are whining about being dominated, or some such. Freaking unbelievable. Feminists are supposed to have a pair of their own.

- Good lord, did they really just call Oryx a fine feminist? He's an idiot. :-D

In Durham you probably knew Robin Skeates.
