I suspect it has more to do with dopamine release than actual opioid conversion.

No, they are closer to being vegetarian. Kids are tricky. We are teaching them about food which is something not many people teach kids or even understand themselves i.e the outpost. Teaching them where it comes from, how it's produced and where to get the nutrition they need. We don't preach veganism to them but teach them the importance of a primarily plant based diet with animal products in moderation if they must be consumed. We want them to understand the ethics of animal use and so they can be more informed and ready to make their own food choices when they grow up.

Forcing kids to eat a certain way can only backfire. Knowledge is power.

It's important not to brain wash your kids, but to simply inform them.


A old friend from highschool was proud of his kid and that wrote something on a whiteboard that said:

"The only way we will love and understand the world is from our knees with lifted hands"

I am guessing that is either a religious reference, or a working girl reference. Since is daughter is only about 7 - I hope to sithis it's a religious reference....

Amazing what makes some parents proud. That kind of brainwashing makes me weep for our future! But at the same time, I think this level of brainwashing is way way down in our society, so that gives me some hope.

Poultry, fish, and low fat dairy aren't going to lead you to 'getting your chest ripped open' any sooner or later than without them. Fat and sugar are addictive whatever the source may be. Create a high fat or high sugar vegetarian dish and you're going to have the same results.

I respect veganism as a lifestyle or dietary choice but many vegans have a difficult time doing the same for others. I can't think of a bigger food cult off the top of my head. Healthful eating is not achieved in only one way.

I always knew Coriolus was wrong about most things and had oddly incorrect tastes, it has all come together now.
