Alright just a quick little...observation...

So I'm reading the label of Robert's Tings and one little bubble says, "Good for you!" or something similar. I read on a food post something about "natural donuts" and I remember some Nutrilicious donut holes saying "good for you" or again, something close.

Now last time I checked fried corn sticks and donuts, vegan or not, aren't all that "good" for you. They are junk food just like the rest of it...Doritos, Krispy Kreme, Cheetos, Ding-Dongs...sans animal ingredients.

Of course, I'll eat the Tings and the Nutrilicious donuts just the same but...isn't that claim a little misleading? Just like Soy Delicious...no animals involved, but 200+ calories per 1/2 C. serving like dairy ice cream...

:stinkeye:

Eh. Just some thoughts :D

:nigel: Cheers!

I've being trying to make this claim here for a long time, nobody will believe you. Some how that chipotle burrito with 1120 calories and 17 grams of saturated fat is better for you than a hamburger half as many calories and less saturated fat.

yup.

You're right, you're right, you're both right. But junk food is addictive and even veg*ans need to have some. All I can say is "moderation, moderation, moderation!"

There ya go. :D

Have a nice day. :sunny:

yeah, perhas we need JFA meetings.

Well, my Tings have sunflower butter. I am getting my healthy nut fats when I eat them so :p :D

Ditto! Its still veg*n "junk food" but at least it doesn't have all the preservatives and other crap that most non-vegan foods have. And again, its all about moderation.

Now, everybody join me for some soy delicious - J/K! :D

Yeah, my tings are a vital source of b12, and according to the new food pyramid corn is both a whole grain and a vegetable.

But alas, B12 amount in Tings is trivial...tasty, but still trivial

:p

hmmmmm.... anyone else think this board is getting a little bit full of messages made by TROLLS?? i just read the title of this thread, and knew it.

? Haven't seen a troll in this thread. Am I missing something?

i just dont like that title (vegan does not equal healthy)

unless of course, he was referring to vegan junk foods....?
then my apologies!

read the first post and you will see that yes indeed, Pseudo is speaking of junk food.

Nope, Tings and Nutrilicious donuts are certainly not "health food". But I eat them anyway! :p
And yeah, I've noticed that "good for you!" labeling too, and it's quite misleading.

what are TINGS??

and while i am at it, what are VB's?? and what does <3 mean?

1. http://www.veganessentials.com/catalog/super-veggie-tings-by-roberts-american-gourmet.htm

2. VB is short for Veggieboards. VB'rs or VBers are VB users.

3. Tilt your head all the way to the right. See it?

Nope, but I have noticed an upswing in the clueless newbie population.

heh heh :shifty:

I have no problem with junk food, I eat junk food. I hate the attitude that our junk food is better though, it isn't. All junk food is fine in moderation, bad otherwise.

BPS: That's funny. Although: While some newbies do tend to be clueless, I also like to see feisty newbies as well who are willing to defend veg*anism against nasty 'ol trolls if they have to. :guitar: :nana:

However should they have bothered to read the first post before going on troll patrol, they would have seen that PV is an established member.

We're both right. :bow:

How's that for peacemaking? :love:

I'm feeling the love :smitten: :D
