I am not really sure that McDonalds qualifies as either animal or vegatable product. So you might be ok with it.

You are correct Brown used to be a cook at McDonalds and its def not actual food they use cook serve or sell

I eat meat.

I spend as much time in remote wilderness as possible. When I am there, I will capture, kill, and consume prey animals. Of course, I also love eating wild strawberries, wild onions, raspberries, devil's thimbles, huckleberries, service berries, etc.

During my ambulance shifts, I prefer to bring fruits and vegetables, and I pass on fast food, much to the dismay of all those that partner with me. Sometimes I'll bring beef jerky, though I don't like the type that isn't homemade.

My best friend is vegetarian and was vegan. Good for him! He makes steaks for me when I visit.

I think it wouldn't be too hard to be a vegetarian while working in EMS, but being a vegan is tough all around.

My post had more to do with being in the wilds near Ronan...you're probably the only person that would even recognize that, sir.

My adult nutrition book had no nutritional reference for grouse. :p

I learned to shoot in the Ronan dump.

..in 1966. Small world, no?;) Miss the little coffeeshop on the corner, "The Covered Wagon Cafe" but that would probably be before your time. (Vegans in Hereford country??).

Smaller in the Big Sky Country, if that makes any sense. Covered Wagon was definitely before my time, but they do have a paid service than covers Polson and Ronan (St. Ignatius is volunteer) nowadays. I've met a bunch of the people, and haven't met a vegan yet. Probably a regional thing! ;)

Brown recommends anybody interested have a look at the following documentaries

- Processed People
- Food Inc
- Fast Food Nation
- Simply Raw: Curing diabetes in 30 days
- Eat for Health and Eat to Live by Joel Furhman MD

Yeah, I watched those on Netflix with my girlfriend. Kind of scary.

i'm in missouri. emt-b graduate, not yet certified or licensed. Somehow we'll have to put together a veg health care worker site for everyone, but 7th Day Adventists promote veg and they run hospitals. I'm not into this for 'ethical' reasons per se, I think practicing surgery on animals is a brilliant use for them. I've milked cows and goats and butchered poultry, castrated pigs, etc. but I look at societies where there's little use of meat; India/ Asia sure cranks out a lot of doctors and engineers, and they value education and non-violence.

Thin mints? Have whey, the leftover juice from cheese.

"Thin mints:INGREDIENTS: Enriched flour (wheat flour, niacin,
reduced iron, thiamin mononitrate [vitamin B1],
riboflavin [vitamin B2], folic acid), sugar, vegetable
oil (partially hydrogenated palm kernel and/or
cottonseed oil, soybean and palm oil), cocoa,
caramel color, contains two percent or less of
cocoa processed with alkali, invert sugar, whey,
leavening (baking soda, monocalcium phosphate),
cornstarch, salt, soy lecithin, natural and artificial
flavor, oil of peppermint.
CONTAINS WHEAT, MILK AND SOY INGREDIENTS."

Dangit. False advertisement!! The order form has a big VEGAN! in a bubble on those cookies... maybe a new recipe??

Did they swindle you into a purchase based on that?
No, I'm being good ;)

Ok wait . . . Let's retrack. Apparently there are 2 makers for girl scout cookies. One of them offers vegan cookies (including thin mints). No milk products, whey, or preservatives.

So, you were right after all <_<

I can't post links yet, but the company is ABC bakery. Check it out!

There are multiple regional bakers and prices. I forgot that, I repress the "cookie mom" role we had to live down four years in a row.:blink:
