CelestialBody said:I'm a gourmet freak. I'm not kidding. I was in love with Spain, for the food alone. The scenery just took it over the top. I swear, this is the reason I don't want to work anywhere near Germany or Poland, hell almost anywhere in Eastern Europe. From what I've had in the past, the food is disgusting. Most of my bills from abroad? Outside of train and airtickets, my greatest expense was food. SEVERAL HUNDERD POUNDS. I'm a sucker for a good meal.

My advice: don't eat anything with a face.
CelestialBody said:I ate a whole hell of a lot while I was there, but I LOST weight when I was abroad. I think it's a combo of smaller, healthier portions and the obscene amount of walking and hiking I did. Here unless i"m on campus or in NYC, almost everything is too far away.

Yeah. Hitler and Ben Franklin were facist vegetarians.

Hey the Buddha died of trichinosis so maybe they were on to something. Who knows?
All I know is that you can't beat a slab of ribs and a cold beer. Don't tell me, beer has a face too. Yummy.

They don't even have the natural advantage of looking plaintive and making sad little noises as they're led off the the slaughter. It's just inhumane to eat both plants and animals.
If you really care, go on a fungi only diet.
CelestialBody said:Fungi is alive as well. You can't amputate an animal and expect it to survive. You can, however pick fruit and not harm a plant.
