WRONG: Vegetarian diet 'weakens bones'

It is ALWAYS about money, isn't it?

It is also important to note this research was funded by the AMBeR alliance incorporated in Malaysia, which owns Amber F&B Nutrition Sdn Bhd, a dairy products producer and wholesaler. This company’s business is the “manufacturing of sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk and dairy products.”

At Waffle House, I ordered eggs and toast. The server asked me if I wanted any meat. I said no, thank you.

Does that make me a vegetarian? lol

What's bad for our individual and collective health is not meat in and of itself. Factory farm production, growth hormones, and too much meat consumption are the problems.

Humans evolved to eat meat in small-to-moderate amounts (actually to gorge on it when hunting produced the relatively rare "meat-fall").

The vegetarian/vegan movement loses lots of potential support by engaging in the same kind of oversimplification used by the meat industry, and by its seemingly implied position of moral superiority over what is basically a lifestyle choice.

What's ironic is that for so many of us, it's our position as citizens of "developed" nations that gives us the wherewithal to even consider this as a major social issue. Some of the scolding and misplaced political guilt-tripping could only come from folks who can take for granted where their next meal is coming from, or that there willl actually be a next meal.
