Any others here?

Which is the better meat substitute, tofu or wheat gluten?

How are you getting enough protein/calcium/iron/B12?

Know any good recipes to share?

Let's have some tasty discussions about these, and other interesting topics.

My friend is a vegan. But I think he only does that cause he wants to look cool or intresting.

My mother likes saying she's not a vegetarian, but she won't eat almost any meat, because she heard on TV that it was so dangerous.

I think I'd go vegetarian if I had to kill the animals myself and wasn't starving, though.

Well personally i'm not vegan though i do have some friends that are. I think tofu is a better substitute since you can cook more with that in general then just gluten and flavor it pretty well. My friends usually take vitamins to keep up the nutrition that they need.
Good recipe if you like brocolli is take
1 tbp oil, 2 cloves of minced garlic Brown the garlic in the oil pour in 1/4 cup of white wine cook out and toss with your cooked/boiled greens. This is also good with your vegan pastas if you find it just use 5 tablespoons of oil and let rosemary and basil simmer on the wine while it's cooking out.
