Maybe you like to debate? Got news for you, a heavy fish diet is NOT good for you. Too much mercury, or too much iodine (or something) I believe. Granted fish is good and fish is generally healthy for you. But, meat is good for you also. It just has plenty of cholesterol to go with it. If you are vegan, you still have to eat plenty of certain protein supplying veggies, such as beans, etc. Don't know about you, but I learned from first grade on about balanced meals and the food pyramid.
Like I said above, if you wish to eat rabbit food, go for it. Just don't try to push a vegan lifestyle on me, because I enjoy my steak and my BBQ. And anyone that eats fake burgers, is just someone that wants to eat beef but is catering to yuppie peer pressure. Otherwise, they would not be making believe they are eating a hamburger at a hamburger joint. This is my opinion, and I reserve the right to stick to it....
