ahh well. to each their own.0 -
Yes I read it. Loved it and it did changes a few things for me. I went vegetarian for like 6 months after reading it and still don't drink milk because I felt they were spot on with what they said. I am not a veggie now but don't eat any meat I don't get from my uncle, he has a farm and raises the animals so I trust it to be fresh and without drugs. I am silly but it makes me feel better about it.0

Great book Made me much more mindful about what really happens and how we get the meat we do. Made me happy I don't contribute to what goes on in the slaughterhouses. Sick sick sick :sick: Also Eating animals is pretty informative as well if your interested in reading about topics like that. It always amazes me how angry controversial books and opinions make people! I'm not gonna freak out every time I see a book about how vegetarianism is wrong, to each their own!!! Jeeze louise :flowerforyou:0

Aside from most everything in it being utter laughable BS, it was an entertaining read.0

Absolutely loved this book! :happy:0

I read a few pages on it... I thought they were quite pushy... and well b!tchy. I didn't like their style. Maybe they were hungry?0

Ah well, I didn't ask for any negativity on the book. And not all of it is BS! a lot of it is very true. I do disagree with some things in it, but it makes valid points.0 -
I think that there's a lot of great advice mixed in with some not so great advice. I'm mostly plant-based and it irked me.0

People are so defensive. I guess it helps them feel better about the choices they make to conclude that the book is BS.0

they were VERY *****y. and very pushy. and I agree, I didn't like that bit. But i found most of the food advice helpful0 -
I read it a couple of years ago and became a vegetarian. I think there are some good points to take away from it. Though i'm more of a flexitarian now (i eat meat once or twice a month), I think it has helped me change my diet to one that's a little more healthy.0

Would love to read if you'd like to share! Thank You! ;-)0

And their opinions on how meat works is really just that, opinion. when you do things like read pub med, a different picture is painted. For those in the know you can spot it immediately. grains of truth, amongst heaps of BS. But for those with pre conceived notions of how diet works, I can see why they are easily fooled.0 -

i didn't read that one, but there was another that i really liked..."Such a Pretty Fat: One Narcissist’s Quest to Discover If Her Life Makes Her *kitten* Look Big, or Why Pie Is Not the Answer"
follows the story of a woman losing a significant amount of weight and all the real-life struggles that go with the journey.
Skinny will be next on my list.0 -

No man, i think you need to re-read it :P look , agree to disagree. I don't care to fight with a stranger on the internet who likes to think they're better than me lol.
They were raising awareness on how SOME things SPECIFICALLY were done. take a look at their index0 -
Couldn't get past their constant use of unnecessary profanity in an attempt to drive their point home. It's one thing to use the shock value for the title, but I had a hard time taking the book seriously when it was littered with profanity. Didn't make it past the first chapter or two myself. But as others have said, to each their own.0

When you post your opinion others are going to post theirs. That's how the internet works...0 -

Read it, went veggie for 6 months, but ehhhh, I like the taste of cows.
Plus, they said no drugs even when you have cramps. If not for those I would kill everyone in site.
But hey, if you liked it, awesome! I encourage reading and learning.0
