FAB-U-LOUS!!!! I checked this out from the library because of all of the hype, thinking it was just another diet book. I was SOOOOOOOOO wrong. This book was freaking funny, informative, and well- so much of it was just plain common sense Ive been overlooking. Its pretty much 1) how to be a vegan 2)information on the meat/dairy industries. its a million times more easy and interesting to read than fast food nation. ive been a vegetarian for four years and have made a few attempts to remove dairy from my diet but have just not had the motivation. then i read it in lack in white- hello, im lactose intolerant. i take a pill each time i eat anything with dairy. this is stupid. im lactose intolerant. my body obviously does not want dairy. so why am i giving it to myself? if i have to take a pill to eat something- somethings wrong with me. so no more dairy. also- im eating byproducts of animals, but i wont eat animals? kind of stupid. so right now im working on a natural diet. no sugars (the no splenda is killing me!) and no dairy. the books has this great list of ingredients that i usually ignore but it tells you whats good and bad. ive been a pretzel freak (being thats what we serve on flights) did you know animal urine is whats gives the pretzels their brown color? yeah. nasty. so now i read ingredients and if i have no idea what it is, doesnt go in my body. read the book. even just for a good laugh. the authors are hilarious!
