Re: Meat-lovers may pack on the pounds
I never met a vegetarian or vegan who didn't have an agenda!
I happen to be a vegetarian because it suits me, and I don't give a rats azz what you or anybody else eats.
Studies while maybe informative never take the whole picture into consideration. They tend to be like statistics. You can focus on any aspect of the study to get what statistic you want while disregarding everything else that may alter the outcome.
This study was about meat eaters gaining more weight, but they didn't mention the way the meat was prepared, or the food that is eaten with it. When is the last time you just had a piece of meat without any side dishes.
How was the meat raised? Was growth hormones and other chemicals injected into the animal? Was it chicken fried?, Barbecued forever with a sauce that had lots of brown sugar in it?
I didn't see any of this mentioned in the study, so you shouldn't "come out of the bag" about vegetarians having an agenda just because somebody posts an article of a study that you don't like.
Read between the lines.
