What one animal could complete a vegan diet?

in food •  2 years ago 

Nice, I wonder if gar back strap would be a decent replacement, since it's hard to tell if it's shrimp or gar. The shrimp is not on my eating list because it doesn't have fins and scales,, but gar does; and is mostly thrown out as a trash fish. Life is interesting!

I'm glad you're watching the gap nutrients, it can be (as you pointed out) dangerous for vegans. One of my BFF'S is vegan, and I have to keep an eye on him, especially on B-12! But he eats kosher too, so the shrimp fix won't help him.

Stay safe!

Kosher? Sounds like a restrictive diet, avoiding good food while pushing you toward eating less nutritious trash fish. Be careful!

No, it's Bible based, and not restrictive fore. The fish avoided are the bottom feeders, so it avoids toxins. The rules were given before we understood the reasons for avoiding them. The pork is unsafe due to Trichinosis worms, that are not all killed by cooking. The toxin levels in the bottom feeders are becoming a real problem especially with today's fallout levels from reactor damages.

The gar back strap is supposed to taste like shrimp, which I'll verify for myself when I get in some fishing time, LOL! Right now, I'm living at the hospital, and eating what I can!

I look forward to fish from my own aquaponics system! Vegetarian and vegan diets are a common choice at church. I eat close to vegetarian, by my taste choice; with most meats used more for flavoring, rather than a main course.

Be blessed my friend!

Well, if you have to avoid worms, you'll want to avoid ALL fish, because they're loaded with worms. If it's only live worms you need to avoid, then produce is definitely out, unless sprayed with a lot of insecticide.
Living at the hospital is hard. I hope it doesn't last much longer for you two!

All our food is tainted, which is why I plan to grow my own! The aquaponics system will be sealed from the outside, but I'll put a hive in each end. Tilapia will be grown from fry, so the worm problems should be at a minimum. We've had several recalls on vegetables down here for ecoli contamination.

The trichomoniasis worm is a human parasite too, and attacks muscle tissue.

Unless you grow all your food yourself, contamination will be an issue! I'll try when I get this resolved; I want a big garden, a greenhouse, and a Wallipini. I plan to plant some permaculture items, as well as herbals too.

I wish I could till that beautiful yard into a garden for you!

Stay safe!

Keep some ivermectin on hand, it instantly kills any parasite (and most viruses) in the human body, with essentially zero other effects. One of the best drugs yet found! It has saved millions of lives in parts of the world that typically have very poor/contaminated food sources.

I think we all know where e coli comes from.... and it's not lettuce.... "commonly found in the lower intestine of warm-blooded organisms..." Our reliance on flesh as food is where it comes from. Same with the other major foodborne illnesses like campylobacter jejuni and salmonella.

Okay, I won't ask anymore questions about your dietary beliefs. Everybody gets to choose what they eat and don't eat, and it doesn't matter if I don't get it. :))

A hoop house, I think that's similar to structures like "poly tunnels". I would like something like that to extend my growing time, but it won't be until at least next fall. It's going to be far below zero until about March, now, and soon we'll be under feet of snow. Will be too late for an early spring start, even if I can get the money/materials together. And they're not all that useful in the mid summer heat. But we'll see how it goes next year. Like you mentioned, a lot of the work is going to be digging, amending the soil, and putting up things like trellises for the peas!

Brother, I wish I had my grandfathers greenhouse. He was a master gardener, of both food and flowers, and could turn a dry broken twig into a healthy green sprout in a few days, no matter how dead it seemed, I kid you not. The guy had a thumb so green a pine tree would be jealous. He died about 15 years back now, then I took care of my grandmother in their home, which meant doing all the gardening. It was a pleasure to carry on his legacy, best I could. I learned a lot from him, even/especially after he was gone! Then she died in 2016, and left me the greenhouse. But my mother and her siblings quickly sold the family home of 60+ years to split the cash (even though none of them needed it), which meant my wife and I had nowhere to go. Even back then, the rental market was insane in the Vancouver area, and we didn't get enough time to find a place, so had to end up on friends' couches, cheap hotels, and even on the street for a while before we stabilized. I wasn't able to take the greenhouse :( It was a beautiful glass and aluminum structure, made in New Zealand and transported over by Gramps in the 90s. It was one of the only things my family said I could have, of their vast wealth. They even threw out all his good pots and starter trays, so I couldn't have them. I think they were worried I would use them to grow cannabis. Which is probably one thing I would have done, amongst so much else, yup! Really, they were just upset I had got so much of his genetics, and his personality, and his green thumb. Grama always said "you're so much like him", even though my mother changed her name when she married my dad, so I am not a Powell on paper. But I'm definitely his grandson! I was the first of 10 they ended up with, and I'm by far the most like him. I did end up with his shovels, hoes, pitchforks, and rakes! Good old wooden tools from the 50s, still in decent shape. I look forward to learning how to clean and sharpen them properly so I can pass them on to my grandchildren some day.

The recalls on lettuce was due to no potty breaks in the field resulting in contamination. Sad thing! I bought some beautiful cabbage today for dollar a head, got one green and one purple. Think I'll try some saurkrautl

No problem on the diet, been storing food for a long time!

Planning now can speed that garden In the spring! I'm hope you can find a tiller!

It really sucks on that greenhouse!!!! My Dad lost a mantle clock the same way in the 1940s. I found it in the 1990s, and brought it back to him! I've never been more proud, and he was never so happy! He was totally stunned to see it again!!!!
