She's turning me vegetarian!

I thought gelatin counted as a by-product...so they'd be vegetarian but not vegan.

Either way, they're crap LOL

by-products if produces with a part of a dead animal is not vegetarian, milk/egg would be ok because there is no need to kill the animal, but would not go along with the vegan mentality.

since gelatine is made form from the boiling of animal skin, connective tissue or bones it is not vegetarian yuk,,,,:sick:

Well i'll tell you what it has done to MY body. At 17 years old... when eating LITERALLY a half of a serving of meat per day and no fried food.. my cholesterol was at 200 points. Cutting out foods made ALL the difference for my health.

200 points total cholesterol is normal. What are your HDL to LDL ratios? Knowing your cholesterol level without knowing HDL to LDL is almost worthless.

YES cutting out meat will make you healthier. I didnt say replace it with poptarts.. that is an absurd way to make a point. Obviously anyone concerned about their health and trying to lose weight wouldnt replace it with pure sugar.

Making a blanket statement such as, "cutting out meat will make you healthier" always does more damage than good. You cannot lump all meats in the same nutritional value. There is a whopping difference between pork and fish. lumping all meats together is just as bad of an idea as lumping all carbohydrates together. There is a HUGE difference between a nutritious wholesome slice of whole grain bread and a ding dong or a ho ho or a nutritionally worthless slice of enriched bleached white bread. There are a lot of vegetarians who eat fish because they understand how valuable good meat is to the human physiology. Vegetarians who are strictly vegatarians can safely be strictly vegetarians in todays modernism ONLY because they can take a creatine and a vitamin B supplement. Those who do not supplement risk serious health issues down the road.

Hehe...I said *exactly* the same thing in another thread.
Are you reading my mind?
