diet

are you on a diet? are diets healthy or unhealthy? what about vegetarian diets? is it fair to eat a plant based diet? do plants want to live, too? I would like to submit that plants do want to live. They have self -protection measures. if you had to eat only one food from mcdonalds every day for a week, which food would it be?

    This is one of those great examples of a truth that can be only that because one wants to believe it. Specifically, I am referring to the fact that a vegetarian can have a self perceived morality by not eating a cute little piggy, but another form of life that may have a different type of consciousness is fair game.

    It’s a good question on ethics and how self sacrifice should be some associative influence. Ethics and humility might be interconnected?

    I was trying to deal with this McDonalds question. Egg McMiffins came to mind but I think if I had to survive for a week on nothing but…I’d probably do one of their salads with chicken.

    Anything you eat is technically a part of your diet. So it’s not as if the concept of a diet can be good or bad; it’s what you do with it. You eat processed food with chemicals, dyes, and preservatives those are part of your diet.

    Sometimes I am on a diet, but I get lead astray easily. Now, especially this week. lettuce has become enemy#1 to my stomach. But, that is no big deal to this meat and potatoes girl. The worst thing —- or maybe it was the best thing —- was a 3 month trip into Russia in the early 1990s with the Baha’i group “Marion Jack”. I learned first hand what living in a Socialist/Communist society was like. Long lines waiting for potatoes!!!! I only saw a line for toilet paper once in those 3 months, and it was only for 10 squares. After eating nothing but potatoes for 3 months, I came back to America HATING potatoes! I hate potatoes and rarely eat them. So, I guess that is a good thing.

    I am a meat and potatoes gal that DOESN’T eat potatoes — unless they are hash browns from Denny’s. I don’t like salads and lettuce has never liked me. I love meat of all kinds! My favorite diet is the Atkins diet, of course. I have a sweet-tooth and it is my downfall.

    im on an “i try to eat healthy but sometimes im too tired and just live on apple cinnamon cheerios and chocolate almond milk” diet
    a day without cheese is a sad day
    as long as there are potatoes and eggs ill be fine
    but if you ask the ElfChild, a day without tortilla shells and chicken is nary a day at all
    last time i was at macdonalds was for a childs birthday party. i ate some fries. they were alright.
