Cooking and boiling doesn't get rid of anything - nothing is gone!

It's simply gets changed - and what it becomes isn't always better :p

It can "get rid" of stuff as far as the meal is concerned, because the nutrients have moved into the water and are subsequently drained off. While the stuff isn't gone in the sense that it still exists somewhere, it is no longer part of the food consumed. For that reason, you should NEVER cook your food. Eat everything raw. Vegetables are easier, because they hold still better, but mice and snakes are generally pretty easy. Turtles are easy, too, as long as they are cold, so throw ice cubes or frogs at them. After all, have you ever held a warm frog?

A poor urchin kid in mexico, living off of day old, cheap, "unhealthy" foods is often more healthy then the gaunt gangly vegans or people who think for whatever moronic reason that eating raw food is better for you.

Human body is fairly resilient and can usually adapt to many conditions. When you try to strip out all the "bad" stuff from your life, your body becomes weak and intolerant. Thats why say people in other countries can tolerate their own water, but not the pampered tourists from countries with high quality water sanitation.

agreed.
But just because i am a vegetarian dosen't mean that i eat everything healthy which many people assume.
I do have the (maybe more than!)occaisional pizza,vege-sausage,vege-burger or vege-bacon all of these quorn (except the pizza) but they still have fat content.And if theres one thing I am not and that's under-weight!

Carnivorous as well.

I eat meat for one basic, fundamental reason: It tastes good.

I can as much about where it comes from as I care about the material from which my shoe laces are made.

If meat were made from shoe laces - would you care then?

If meat were made out of mendhak's third eye, would you care then?

and in case you ask, mendhak's third eye regenerates every hour or so.

Now you know why I'm a vegetarian...

Vegintarianism is morally wrong!!

Your ancestors fought their way to the top of the food chain for and you just throw it abck in their faces...:p

Also, cows eat grass, right? and grass is a plant, yeah? So a cow is basically concentrated plant and therefore suitable fodder for vegetarians.

Am I the only person who couldn't care less if a person scoffed themselves with meat or a carrot stick?
