Food safety / was Digest Number 203

[Guest guest]

Agreed that the high animal protein diet can make one ill ;=( For people

like your partner who still eat me*t, organic is indeed safer, just as

organic fruits, vegetables and beans, legumes and grains, etc., are

safer than those that are full of chemicals. (These also might have been

genetically modified in Canada and the USA and *not* be marked

accordingly, and many people are very concerned about that too.) Organic

me*t costs more, of course.

 

As for your final comment,

 

> I am so glad that I am vegetarian, no offense to any carnivors out there

 

I'm glad too *lol* I don't think carnivores would be offended - after

all this is a vegetarian list ;=) It is for *you* to be offended if

anyone started up about the benefits of animal protein! Relax, this is a

safe haven for all vegetarians and for wannabees ;=)

 

Best,

Pat
