Cheap food:

Post #27,362 by admin 2/5/02 10:29:47 AM Reply	Cheap food: ... is vegetarian. Lose the meat. Get some good multi-vitamins, lose the meat, eat potatoes, broccoli, kale, spinach, stuff like that. Keep the cheese and milk, but cut down on it. Eat whole wheat bread, not white bread or anything with bleached enriched flour in it. Side benefits: you're likely to lose weight and possibly feel better, as you won't be getting the pesticides and other junk commercially-processed meat has in it.

Some veggies I have to avoid, others I just can't eat without having my GI tract screwed up or spending hours a day going to the bathroom a lot. I did switch to PBJ sandwiches, and do have some grilled cheese sandwiches a lot. No meat in them, at least none that I know of. "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."

That does, however, mean eating lots of vegetables. I dunno how close to being a vegetable a grilled cheese sandwich is... Scott, perhaps you can help my corroborate my bald assertion that the average American diet is woefully lacking in fibre and roughage?

Post #27,492 by nking 2/6/02 9:31:23 AM Reply	Like I said I had tried it. Just avoiding meat when I can right now, and eating what I can to help. I had tried a veggie diet, and at times got so sick that I had to go into the hospital. I had an inflamed colon, it swelled up, if I hadn't gone into the hospital it would have burst. I had tried this for about a year. Average American (I assume you mean USA citizens? I can't votch for Canadians and Mexicans.) Diet consists manly of junk food, fast food, and food that will bust almost anyone's colon. We are talking serious class action lawsuits against food companies if the average US citizen gets smart enough to join a class-action lawsuit. Tons of grease, fat, etc. Enough to clog/harden arteries, cause heart attacks early in life, damage colons, and other problems. "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."
