I LOVE THE INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE, VEEERY HELPFUL. DO YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE FOR PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN COUNTRIES WHERE PRODUCTS LIKE SEITAN, TOFU, TEMPEH AND VEGETABLE MILKS (SOY MILK, ALMOND MILK, ETC.) AREN’T AVAILABLE? (LIKE FOR EG. EUROPEAN COUNTRIES WHERE GOATS, SHEEP AND COWS AND THEIR PRODUCTS (LIKE MILK) ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE ECONOMY AND TRADITION)? ORDERING ONLINE IS OUT OF THE QUESTION (SHIPPING COSTS WAAAY TOO EXPENSIVE!). THANK YOU!

@Mallory: I have not read The Vegetarian Myth, though, after reading its synopsis on Amazon.com, I can surmise that it might strive to “debunk” the presumed environmental, ethical and health benefits of abstaining from meat. Frankly, I really don’t care about debating ethics on this blog. Even more so, I don’t care about anything that is presumed “natural” or “unnatural” to the human body, since only I can make that decision for myself. I don’t “agree” or “disagree” with meat, since – as far as I know – meat doesn’t have an opinion that can be voiced and I’ve never tried to enter a debate with a cow (that could be interesting). I do choose not to eat meat or any animal products as much as possible as a conscious choice and preference. My reason for eating “mock meat” is simply that it tastes good and provides a lovely texture to my meals. I know others eat it when they are transitioning to vegetarianism after being a meat-eater for their entire lives. And others, you’re right, eat it when they want to fit in a little extra protein/vitamins/etc. Some would tell you, i’m sure, that eating animal flesh for protein is just as unnatural as eating GM or processed foods for protein (and let’s not forget most meat is full of antibiotics and shit). And just so we’re clear, not all mock meats come from GM sources. It’s really a matter of whose dictating what is and what is not natural, and since so much of the debate of what is “good” for our bodies is polluted by the politics of self-interest, I can only gauge what I believe to be true based on my own experiences and the experiences of those I know, love and trust. Sorry for the long-winded response — In a nutshell, thanks for the book recommendation (i’ll add it to my wish list) and if my body starts to fail on me, i’ll definitely reconsider my dietary choices.

Have you read the book the Vegetarian Myth…IF NOT PLEASE DO. the author was a gevan for some 12 odd years. What i do not enjoy about the veggie eating community is the “mock meat.” if you dont agree with meat then why do you eat genetcially modified fake meat, cheese and the sort? and if you do it to get in your vitamins and fat obviously there is something wrong with your diet, i.e. you should not be vegan. it is unnatural to the human body.

Well… you had me at sweet potato enchiladas. Divine! My heart also fluttered at the lemon basil brown rice. Love lemon anything.

Hope life is grand.
