I am utterly amazed at some of the ridiculous responses posted here today. Meat eaters calling me a food Nazi. Other meat eaters suggesting that a fruit diet will give me some anemia-induced disease or illness. Are you serious!!!! Some of you meat eaters have no clue what you're talking about. Not surprising coming from a mass group of meat eaters who only eat food because it tastes good. The truth is, Bacon and Eggs are not healthy. Eggs have zero percent nutritional value and Bacon is just fried artery-chokes. If you want real energy in the morning, eat fresh fruits, drink fruit juice or have a organic frozen fruit bar. Believe me, it will make your body happy. (Make sure you don't drink any disgusting cow milk with that either). By the way, did I mention that fruits and veggies provide many of the vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body really needs including protein. I mean let's face it, Meat eaters can't live off protein alone. Nuts, and seeds are also good sources as well. Sadly enough, meat isn't even the best source of protein. Dark green leafy vegetables like Spinach, Greens, Wheatgrass, and Blue-green Algae are. The only reason meat contain any traces of protein is because animals like cows eat grass because they're natural herbivores (like all meat eaters should be) and look how huge they are!! If you want to have a heart-attack before 50, a belly the size of a beach ball, and a weak stomach, a dying prostrate, or a liver that is backed up with fatty acidic toxins to the point where it can't even do its job anymore, continue to eat bacon, eggs and other garbage. Don't say you haven't been warned!! And by the way, anyone who lived to be 70 years old eating fried, artery clogging foods may have lived twice as long with a vegan diet. More to come!!!

dude, again with the insinuations. EGGS HAVE NUTRITIONAL VALUE! not only do they contain High Density Lipoproteins which are good for you, but they also contain choline. choline is vital for:

Choline serves various functions in our bodies – in the structure of cell membranes, protecting our livers from accumulating fat, as the precursor molecule for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and more.

So don't act like eggs have nothing to do with nutrition. Served and prepared correctly, you can make a healthy meal with eggs. and stop with the bashing! milk is good for you too! skim, mind you. but it's still good. it gives you vitamins A and D and Calcium. not to mention:
Biotin and pantothenic acid are B vitamins important for energy production.
Iodine is a mineral essential for thyroid function.
Potassium and magnesium are for cardiovascular health.
Selenium is a cancer-preventive trace mineral.
Thiamine is a B-vitamin important for cognitive function, especially memory.
Vitamin A is critical for immune function.
Vitamin B12 and riboflavin are necessary for cardiovascular health and energy production.
Vitamins D and K are essential for bone health.

(all found at
en.wikipedia.org...)

and if you read right under that, it also mentions a possible link between drinking low-fat milk and decreasing chances for arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, colorectal cancer, and obesity. obese people may also benefit from reduced risk of insulin resistance, meaning less chance for type two (then possibly type one) diabetes! All the facts are there, my friend. of course, there are negative possibilities, although they haven't been as thoroughly tested as the positive ones.


*edit* adding another point: do you know what it's like not to having a functioning thyroid? it's horrid. i nearly died so many times because of it. so be sure to drink... hmmm... if only there was a beverage that had traces of iodine... oh yeah there is! milk!

and nobody said anything about living off protein alone. we're just enjoying our lives. we're eating things that taste good. thanks to modern medical and biological knowledge, we can also try and make it better for us! the fruit just gives you a brief energy burst and then you have to..... EAT SOME MORE FRUIT! i'm not arguing about the protein/veggies any more. in fact, i'll move off of it right now. what i'm concerned about, as another human being, is your wellfare. you live off of fruits and veggies and NO meat, am i correct? have you never heard that absolutionism is the route of all dietary evil? it's just unhealthy to turn to only one food source! my cousin actually was a vegan for a long time. but then she got diagnosed with a type of anemia caused by lack of proteins. she's been a meat-eater ever since. being a meat-eater doesn't mean not eating vegetables. i eat vegetables! but living in absolution is never the way to go. moderation is key for a healthy lifestyle. did you miss health class? you need everything in moderation. we were made with stomachs that could handle just about everything for a reason! so we could eat, enjoy, and use many different kinds of sources. god has a plan and vegans... well, they just throw that plan out the window when they say, "god gave us the cow to eat... but i'll go eat everything except the cow because i don't think it's healthy." if you think healthy means, "can i eat lots of it and not get sick?" then, no it doesn't. but if you ask, "can i eat it in moderation and be able to live life feeling a little bit of nice-n-full?" then yes it does. healthy is a balance between mental health, physical health, and nutritional health. i'm thinking you need help with some of those criteria for being healthy. i am. i'm a bit overweight. but i also have no metabolism due to a non-existent thyroid gland. but take it from a guy who's grown up around medical books and the like: stop the path you're on. we're meant to eat both meat and veggie. look at our teeth for the proof!

Oh man, with the rather innocent sounding names of things in this thread, like "black pudding" or "white pudding", I can't help but wonder what these berries are. Dangle berries??


Bwahahahahah....It's "Lingon berries" not Dangle berries. Its a berrie growing wild all over Sweden. Very delish. You can get a it at your local IKEA or any place selling Scandinavian/Northern European groceries.

Its a must try:-)

I think 'dangle berries' was said tongue in cheek.
