Guest guest Posted December 18, 2006 Report Share Posted December 18, 2006 I would love your kuggle recipe, if you wouldn't mind sharing it. I have never made one, the one my MIL makes is great. g deechun_sa_ngop Sun, 17 Dec 2006 12:26 PM Re: New Member and Newby Vegan Intro On humans There are many " meat-like " recipes available. If you look back at the past messages in the group's website you will find archives a discussion on TofyTurkey, Quorn Roast (tastes great, that one I did try). Quorn also makes a great no chicken chicken nugget. These are all vegitarian, but not vegan. I made a vegan luchin kuggel (spelling) for a " House Lighting " last nicgt. A number of the women there complemented the kuggle. When I told them there was no cheeze in it, they did not believe me. When I said it was tofu, they were very surprised as they did not like tofu ... till last night. I am sure that this post will precipitate a few good recipes for you to make your guests. As for out pets. Yes there are vegitarian recipes available. My feelings. These are not good for your dogs, cats, etc.. The human being is not a carnevor. We have enjoyed terming ourselves as omnivores ... animials that eat a wide range of animial and plant life, but we forced ourselves to this. It is not what we were evoved for. i believe it is estimated that we digest about 10% of the beef we eat. The remainder either adhears to the walls of our intestines for long periods of time or is eliminated, nutrients and all. If we has the percentages of acids in our stomach that your pet dog has, that acid would eat it's way to your feet in seconds. The dog ann cat families however are evolved as meat eaters. Thay are the difinition of Carnevour. They have the tooth structure to trear apart their prey and to gulp the meat down with out chewing as we know it. They have the acids in their stomach to desolve the meat and get the nurishment from it. You may be against the killing of animials, and for that matter I am also. You have however taken it on yourself to raise a pet that by nature eats other animials. I feel that to be responsible means that your obligated to feed that pet what nature intended it to eat. I also feel that by restricting it to a vegetarian diet will ultimately be harmful to the pet's health. I am not saying that this is a fact. I am sure in my mind however that there is a very good possibility that manufactures just might say ... " Here is a great opportunity to make money. Let's ,make vegetarian cat and dog foods. We can charge more also as it will be condidered a 'speciality item'. Hay. NYC used to have, may still, a restaurant for pets. They had place settings, napkins and all ... and charged through the nose for the meal. My feelings ... Just say ... " I love you " ... hold your nose and dump that can of meat into your pet's dish. That, or buy a rabbit, Cockatoo or a duck. They are vegetarian by evolution. Alyssia - " jodi38107 " <jodi38107 Sunday, December 17, 2006 11:29 AM New Member and Newby Vegan Intro > Hi.
