| Hidden ingredients!
Just a though to everyone out there. I have been vegetarian for three years and I'm heading more to vegan (can't give up my yoghurt yet!). Was horrified when a new report here in Australia just recently reminded everyone about how important it is to check labels - two examples were frozen potato chips that were pre-cooked in beef tallow (pure fat) and that very same beef product is also used in tim tams! So ... if you are keen to keep to your moral, healthy or environmental choices read, read, read! My safest option over the past year is to eat almost 80% raw which basically avoids worrying about added ingredients in packaged products. Good luck everyone and remember - for every kilo of meat grown for human consumption, a hundred hungry third world children could have a meal. |
