I eat quality foods, and understand that many fats/proteins are bad. Plus Atkin's won't let you eat ANY carbs, which is kind of unrealistic on a vegan diet.

The second I start eating refined/processed foods, filling myself up with gluten or (dare I say it) stuffing myself with genetically modified meats; I'm sure I will get fat, if I don't die form heart disease first.

plz dont be a veganarian we are tippy top dog evolved to build rifles and atomic weaponry

also chef boyardee confirmed full of corn syrup

I lead a simple elf life, and you secondary consumers are raping the soils of Norrath faster than technology/magic can keep up. Someone has to do what they can to limit their impact upon for world for the sake of future generations, and it's not going to be the humans.

You need to sack up and realize part of life is pain and death

and for some they are delicious afterwards with sauce on them

[breaa]

mmm how I do love MSG, GMO and HFCS. It makes food magically delicious.

Just because it's slowly poisoning your system doesn't make it wrong does it? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Aside from that, even if you want to eat things like mac n cheese, you can find really healthy versions of it that generally taste 100x better.

Nice thread change btw. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Sorry brobb ;p

^ fuck that

[Twain]

Not starving myself with 4 meals a day. Even allowed 3 snacks a day but I only eat 1 usually. Not a crazy diet, pretty simple to follow. Some days the breakfast is a grilled cheese or pancakes.

[Nirgon]

I didn't know Chef Boyardee had pancakes

[Twain]

Haven't actually made pancakes yet. The diet also tells you what time you should eat and I get to work at 7am but my first meal is at 830am.
