true/false: vegan = healthy?
t says: I read the following article I found linked through eater. I think the writing kind of sucks (which, knowing how horrible my writing is here, is no small feat), and it’s poorly researched … but I think the point is valid: eating vegan can indeed be healthier than not … however, because we are “gourmets” and still rely on sugars and fats for flavor, “vegan” alone is not sufficient for a food item to be consider healthy. On a related note, I did watch the “Forks over Knives” movie, which was interesting (the Chinese study that was mentioned was pretty impressive … but rumor has it that there are some unsubstantiated conclusions being drawn from the data – what journal was it published in?), but I’m not completely sold, yet – sorry guys.
