  1. So last week I was looking at some guitar upgrade accessories on Amazon. Took a chance and order a few things, prices were ridiculously cheap, about a third of local retail. I had no hope of it arriving anytime this year. But this morning Aramex dropped it off. 7 days straight from the US. Quicker than most SA retailers.
  2. https://youtu.be/iuOa3avtdNA Here is 25 minutes of DRs advising against veganism. I guess it trumps yours then????
  3. 13 minutes of anecdotal evidence and not a hint of science.
  4. Exaggerate much? So I could go and dump barrels of oil in the ocean, but god forbid, dont have children.
  5. Dont you just love science! Im converted.
  6. Worst pickup line ever.
  7. I’ll pay the 20% increase, but I’ll give it a skip because they will most probably change the route the night before again.
  8. In other words. Fad diets. ”Are you confused by all these diets we have been bombarded with in the media? We had paleo a little while ago. We had to eat like our ancestors otherwise we would develop diseases and die. Then we had keto, we need to go keto otherwise you will get diabetes and die. Avoid carbohydrate! Now we can’t be keto and definitely not paleo, we need to avoid meat! We have seen three massive trends in the space of a few years. Believe me, scientific insights haven’t changed in this short period of time! Science doesn’t move that fast…. However, different interpretations and especially opinions do change fast… Unfortunately, these are not always based on science or evidence, even thought they may pretend that they do. “
  9. That does not mean its healthy. Calories does not equal macro nutrients.
  10. Don’t know if its necessary to state the obvious, but lets try. You changed you diet on a whim, based on false vegan propaganda. Your body is telling you something. What happened to the supposed massive plant based gains?
  11. 60% to livestock and 40% to biofuels. Basic math will tell you that there is nothing left for humans to consume, thats why we eat meat. Trust me, I had Encarta.
  12. Had a quick go at some black bean patties last night. Not bad, in hindsight I should probably have added more onions/peppers to make it more crunchy. But flavor wise it was almost there. Not vegan though, added an egg and it was fried in some glorious homemade butter.
  13. As a noob I followed the coach Parry program. Not 100% but as a guideline. Work well for me.
  14. I think the article refers to off the shelf and fast food meat substitutes. Like most food, anything homemade can be healthier, because you know exactly what goes in. Unfortunately we live in a fast food/convenient food world.
  15. I will actually give the black bean ones a try.
  16. No man.. ???? I also prefer my food a little better than "not terrible"
  17. As a meat eater I can substitute processed meat with real meat. What is the vegan alternative to processed "meat"?
  18. Interesting read, Im sure there will be a few counter articles. https://amp.usatoday.com/amp/4112887002?__twitter_impression=true "Plant-based meat might enjoy the perception of being healthier, but that perception is far from reality. A lean beef burger has an average of nearly 20% fewer calories and 80% less sodium than the two most popular fake-meat burgers, the Impossible Burger and the Beyond Burger. Fake meat is also an “ultra-processed” food, filled with unpronounceable ingredients. The National Institutes of Health released a study in May finding that ultra-processed foods cause weight gain. Unlike observational studies, this research was a controlled, randomized study. "
  19. Watched from the start, her discipline is very impressive. She was running top 5, gave her watch one look and dropped right off the back. The pace was obviously too hot and she had a plan to stick to. On a Berlin type course she will crush the SA record.
  20. Do you know me? Do you know what diet changes I made? We made a major cut in our meat consumption as a family, thus my interest in this thread. Will I ever become full vegan..no. And thats the problem with vegans, its either do or die, they are not interested in small gradual changes. And that fails the animals they are so concerned about even more.
  21. Everyone is open for change. But you don't change anyone if you keep telling them what horrible humans they are. In fact you will only get more and more resistance, and its so obvious by the way this thread is going.
  22. Why? Its still debate. Sometimes debate can be uncomfortable and a little offensive. But if you really want to sensor it into a vegan friendly zone maybe admin can turn it into a clubhouse with a password?
  23. Trust me, there will be heaps of subs available. Everyone with a pair of shoes entered. Running a 4h50 qualifier still looms.
  24. Its not rules, apparently its another set of commandments. Abide by it or go to meat eater hell.
  25. Well, without chemical assistance humans cant.
