to Storm re: eating fish occassionally--my goodness already

[Guest guest]

People,

My goodness, the world is not crashing down. Storm did adit that he/she ate fish

very rarely when she felt that she was needing something in her diet that she

was unable to meet anyother way. Then someone else posted telling her of a vegan

way to meet those requirements. Then she thanked that person for the

information.

Let it go now. If she felt the need to eat fish, so be it. That doesn't mean

that you need to eat the fish, if you go back in the posts you can also find the

alternative/vegan way to fill the need for whatver nutrients it was.

There is a debate going anyway whether it is better to be 100% raw or only

taking in a small portion of cooked foods. Well, so a fish everyother month is

not going to stop it from being a healthy choice for Storm or anyone else. If

she ate it as Sushi then it was still raw, and if not, well other people have

occassionally gone off raw for a meal.

My goodness,,, well stepping of the soap box now,,,,Nini2033a

Storm, let us know...Was it here in this group, that you admitted you

eat fish every once in a while?
