    Do chickens count as vegetables? They're kinda dumb so I'm going with it

    You'd be surprised how smart plants can be: when we grow cucumbers, the things always know where the fence or some kind of climbing assistance is, and the stems make direct for it. Then the tendrils curl around, cling, and the cucumber goes on with what it needs to do.

    I grant you that tomato plants seem to have a low IQ compared to the cucumber.

    Tomato, yellow pepper and broccoli today. There is some spinach in the chicken sausage I'm going to eat too :) Lighter veg day than usual. Just kind of worked out that way.

    Blueberries, celery, yellow pepper, artichoke, pickles, coconut, macadamia nuts, cashews. Would cacao nibs count? Hmm. Most of my food today came from plants but most are not veggies. I guess just the celery was technically a veggie. LOL

    Is this a serious question? Chicken counts as meat.

    In his dreams :wink:

    Hey! Don't crush my dreams!

    I had steamed baby bok choy and am planning on steamed onions with eggs, kiwi, and maybe a lettuce or spinach sandwich.

    If chicken loses a battles wits to a cucumber then I think you're insulting cows everywhere. The cows and I are offended.

    Breakfast: Started with a new veggie blend! Carrots, zucchini squash, and some other green squash I don't remember the name of

    Lunch: Kale, daikon radish, sweet potatoes, and papaya
    Didn't have a whole lot of calories for my afternoon snack, so I grabbed a small apple

    Dinner: Spinach, tiny bit of onions, tiny bit of tomatoes, and a banana

    I had a banana with breakfast and a bag of salad with lunch. Dinner's veggies will be whatever is in the soup I'm going to have. And then it'll be a couple of apples in the evening.

    You know, this doesn't surprise me! I think back to many years ago, when I learned that all bamboo is part of the same system, as I recall, and then this kind of thing makes sense.
