Veganism

Something I am considering because of it's extreme health benefits but since I have some experience from a year as a vegetarian I am not sure of my success rate. I lived on a farm I know the difference in taste between a properly raised and cared for animal and a factory farmed one. Seriously you can taste their fear. Ever wonder why people go organic. Try it sometime. The meat is sweeter and juicer because it was properly taken care of. While I know it would be a fantastic way to drop a lot of weight the problem would come from cravings for meat. The supersize me guy had a similar problem his girlfriend at the time (now wife) gave him a vegan detox diet after all that mcdonalds. He still went back to meat. We did evolve to be omnivores and eating foods of opportunity. It wasn't until the last few hundred years that people as a whole have been more settled and eating things that they raised. I think to do it I would do it different. Have Monday to Friday as vegan/veggie and then on the weekend allow myself meat. Or alternate days, or whatever works. I know for sure that I should already have a Meatless Monday and a Fruitarian Friday. I have been slacking and that has to change.
