An in-depth study made by The Guudland's Ministry of Health was brought to light this morning, with the release of documents showing proof that protein substitutes such as soy and nuts are not as nutricious as the comsumption of meat products. As health care is a primary concern within the Kingdom, King Wippit declared by proclamation:

"Those who choose to avoid the consumption of meat in their diet shall be denied access to the free Health Care supplied to the kingdom. Let it known that all who claim to be vegetarians will be forced to pay for all health services in the Kingdom of Guudland."

The proclamation shocked those of the vegetarian lifestyle, and several demonstrations have been planned to protest what many feel is an unfair denial of health services, but the Kingdom is standing by its decision based on the best advice given by the country's medical professionals.

Dear King Wippit


Come now, that's just silly! Think about it for a moment. Human beings are omnivores, they need meat AND plant based foods.

How long have your experts been in the profession? How are your colleges? Surely they couldn't have come to such a conclusion.

"...protein substitutes such as soy and nuts are not as nutricious as the comsumption of meat products. As health care is a primary concern within the Kingdom..."

Listen, chap, just because your scientists have gone and said salalds aren't as good for you as sirloin doesn't mean you shouldn't eat both.

I sincerely hope your people do not decide to cut off what should be a significant part of their diet.

...a vegetarian is a person who consumes only vegetables amd detests the slaughter of animals for food...vegans...

This is some of the dumbest tripe I've ever seen. In fact, it's been proven that protein-rich alternatives to meat have way less cholesterol and are actually healthier for human consumption. You can get equal amounts of protein beans and soy products as you can from meat.

Ok, are you metally inept or something because that is so out of whack with the truth. While some vegetarians don't eat meat because of the way animals are slaughtered, there are vegetarians like myself who don't give a damn about animal rights and eat vegetarian food because it's healthier.

Also, vegetarians eat milk, cheese and other products that come from animals, except the meat. They eat a lot of the same food as others, just not meat. Vegans on the other hand, don't eat cheese and don't drink milk; they eat processed cheese and drink soy milk. Some are even extreme and don't eat food that casts a shadow or some weird stuff like that...

I agree with you, but i just despise vegens....that last thing I want to hear or see is some people protesting against the slaughter of animals....its just stupid, I mean everything has a purpose therefore an animal's pupose is.....

In general, vegens are the more radical and are usually the ones protesting

Then just ignore them! Let them protestl it gives us something amusing to watch. Besides, they're relatively harmless.

Uh-huh... So, some vegetarians complain about the mistreatment, and even some meat eaters - after all, don't you want your meat killed in such a way that it will be safe for your consumption?

Yes but we have to hate and blame something for our problems....and they are just one of the manythings that fall into my view of that category

No those are hippies.
