    My stupid brother has been ranting and raving about how plants and vegetation feel pain all week long! It is SO annoying! I keep saying, "Maybe you should put that same compassion towards the animals. At least they can display their pain and suffering.". To which he replies "I really don't care."

    Arrrrghhhhh!! This boils my blood! And to talk about stupid!! Any good pointers on what I can say back?

    "It's unfortunate that you don't care about the suffering of animals. I used to think you were better than that."

    Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

    I was watching Dr. Oz today and he was talking about how good tempeh was for you because of its B-vitamins. Then he takes a bite of it, looks disgusted, and spits it back out! He was eating plain tempeh, and now everyone who watches that show will think that tempeh is gross. I love tempeh, but you gotta treat it right, you know?

    I love Dr. Oz, but I know what you're saying. I don't think people are really as impressionable as they seem, I'm sure everyone was turned off to tempeh before he had some

    Meatball sub! Had a carny say she didn't consider it so because "it was processed".

    P.S. I hear all the time that "ALL vegetarians eat seafood & chicken." Bull-f***ing-s***!

    That's sometimes the case, as not all veggies know how to eat right. But most of the time, the people that say that are ridiculously overweight and scoffing a bucket of friend chicken. Makes me laugh.
