This Just In: Meat-eaters Will Die First
Reposted from JackNorrisRD.com I always find it amusing when I’m reading nutrition propaganda from someone using outdated information and they say something like, “As far back as [date], we knew that…” And so it disappoints me to have to do the same thing right now: As far back as June, wLocal Harvest (I'll local your harvest!)

Irreverent Vegetarian Chatter
We may choose not to eat meat, but that doesn't mean that we have to like it. From lipstick vegetarians, raw food celebrities, vegan snobs, to crappy veg foods like Tempeh—there are a million reasons to hate on vegetarian life. And don't get us started on vegans. We mercilessly mock veg products, recipes, celebrities, patchouli and commit a meatless shit ton of other vegetarian on vegetarian crime.
