"it tastes just like a turkey burger doesn't it?" yes it does, and it shouldn't. But it's settled I shall look into the book you recommended and at least for a month or so go strict veganAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472697.post-26238394675442478562010-03-31T10:15:38.494-04:002010-03-31T10:15:38.494-04:00I agree with you.

And not healthful, especially the way they are processed and packaged with other ingredients, like gluten.<br /><br />Go back and eat the whole bean, and don't concentrate on any one bean, like soy.Bixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263963508785739508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472697.post-74321664520689345512010-03-31T10:10:42.588-04:002010-03-31T10:10:42.588-04:00Staples:

Fruits (apples, bananas, berries, citrus, melons, peaches, pears) are usually limited to 2 or 3 a day. And dried fruits more sparingly. There's a real debate in these communities over nuts - many say to limit them (no more than 1 oz./day), perhaps because of the particular fat they provide. <br /><br />Lots of soups, stews, porridges, pilafs, salads. Whole grain tortillas (corn, wheat) for roll-ups.Bixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263963508785739508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472697.post-52322138085912820692010-03-31T08:35:41.666-04:002010-03-31T08:35:41.666-04:00hmmm interesting... some of the vegan diets I see ...hmmm interesting... some of the vegan diets I see are packed with processed stuffs like tofu and soy burgers, some of the meat substitutes taste just like meat... that can't be natural, can it?<br /><br /> What are the staples recommended by this diet? types of beans and fruitsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
