   I’ve gone vegetarian, and that’s as far as I’ll go for now… We’re not willing to give up the cheese. I am reading Silent Spring – 40th anniversary edition though and some of the facts around bio-accumulation of pesticides & concentration in fat (including milk & cheese) is giving me some impetus to reconsider.

   I suppose the good news is that if you’reboth gaseous, no one needs to be exiled to the couch…

   The China Study was the book that turned it around for me. As much as all the ethics stuff effected me, I couldn’t find the impetus to go vegan until the correlation between Western diseases and consumption of animal-based protiens became obvious.

   I highly recommend giving it a read.

   BTW, I still take cream with my coffee. It’s a lifelong habit…
