    All these statements must be backed up with facts or clarified as opinions. Samos- please provide what you believe is the correct food pyramid, I'm literally boggling that you disagree that a diet combined mostly of wholegrains/vegetables & fruit, with smaller portions of meat/dairy is healthy.

    I think that the way that vegans take in the most animal produce is by the use of cosmetics and toiletaries. You have to read the labels carefully.
    Women "eat" a number of tubes of lipstick per year and they have animal ingredents.
    Anything applied to the skin such as lotions get absorbed and lots have animal products in them.

    I think that it should be in every school and library in the country. I read some where that Gary Player the golfer got down on his knees on television in the US and begged people to read it.

    Yes
    I hope that it gets the message through to some more people. Gary Player is in his seventies and still competes.
