We often go out for a curry with a couple who cannot bring themselves to leave a crumb of food on the plate, and look at what we're leaving with that "but kids are starving around the world!" look.
Time for smaller portions!
Then let me de-mystify you: I want smaller portions for smaller prices, not a mountain of food I can't finish. I generally stop eating when I'm full.
Very nice indeed.
I'm not entirely sure the bedroom air will smell fantastic in the morning, but hey-ho !
Chips are "Plant-based" no matter how you cook them
Donald Trump needs kicking out of a helicopter
I'm personally responsible for all global warming
That's not my point.
Meat production is one of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gasses and depletion of natural resources. Its massively draining. When you look into the amount of resources needed to produce a kilo of meat it really is unbelievable.
In terms of obesity, blaming sugar is way too simplistic. The issue is we (in the developed world) eat way too much full stop. My belief is that this is due to individually not understanding what is the right amount of food, and what it means to eat nutritious food.
Its not about affordability either. The notion that fast or processed food is cheaper than fresh is false. You can fill you basket at Aldi or Lidl with fresh fruit and veg for not a lot of money at all. The problem is, people don't seem to know how to do that, or what to do with it when they get home. I don't buy the "haven't got time" argument at all. If something matters to you, you make time.
What we eat should matter to all of us as it's directly linked to how well we live, how well we feel, and how long we will live.
More than that - if you don't think about where your food comes from, how it gets to your shop shelf, then you are contributing to the growing problems we have with resources around the world. Its easy to simply dismiss it, and I know I am being simplistic, but we all can blame industry or transport, or diesel cars, or oil demand for global warming, but our diets are the real problem.
How we eat, and what we eat creates a massive demand and production chain that is affecting the whole planet. It seems we are generally wilfully ignorant of it as well. The more you insist on your meat with every meal, your nicely packaged and imported fruit and veg, regardless of season, the more the problem will grow.
During WW2, why was meat the first thing to be rationed, one of the last to be removed from rationing, and why was the War Ag set up to maximise plant-based agriculture? Simply, because we can't sustainably feed our nation on domestically produced meat.
Hi btw.
Obviously you can eat a very low fibre vegetarian diet but if moving to a more plant based diet it is very possible to increase your fibre intake in the process. As a high fibre diet is shown to cut heart disease might be something of note for the OP here (although ignore my recommendation of the Gregg's vegan roll in that case...).
