As far as all the vegetarian issues go in this thread, I'm a vegetarian and there's scientific proof that vegetarians are more likely to live longer and less likely to develop heart disease. Meat has a lot of fat in it as apposed to other sources of protein. And as for the alternate sources of protein being bad for animals as well, it's all about picking the companies that don't abuse animals. Also, the whole carbs debate is stupid. It's not about carbs vs no carbs, it's about getting the right kind of carbs, ie the ones that aren't overly processed (think wheat bread instead of white). And good carbs are necesary for fiber and to keep your blood sugar at the right level to support brain activity. You can get glucose from protein, but the process required to do so also creates a lot of toxins as biproducts, and in large ammounts are bad for you...
Sorry for the nutrition lesson, but if you are all gonna come on here and fight about it, I figured I'd at least share what being a biopsych major and taking university nutrition classes has taught me.
PS. Aaron rocks no matter what size he is.
