Moop answered Wednesday July 5 2006, 3:15 pm: I take you want to go vegetarian, yes?
I've tried all of the following: VeggiePatch Chicken Free Nuggets, Spinach Nuggets; Boca All-Natural, Preservative-Free burgers, bratwurst, and crumbles; Tofu made by various companies (and I hate it), Amy's products (most of her pizzas and chilis), and vegan puddings and yogurts made by a company I've forgotten. there was a panda on the label.
I've also experimented with a lot of vegan recipes. my favorite meal is minestrone soup (which I can give you a simple recipe for if you drop a line in my inbox). I suggest you slowly transition out of meat and animal products over a three or four month period. you need to make your body ready for the large amounts of beans and rice and all-natural foods you'll have to consume in large quantities. if you choose to go back on meat you also need to wean yourself onto it slowly. it's important not to shock your body.

Protein is important for your daily diet so if you don't want meat, be sure to get it from somewhere else. [ curliecue's advice column | Ask curliecue A Question ]

Sort this by taking iron suppliments to even out the number of blood cells in your body. Spinach will also help give you the nutrients you don't get from meat.
