Bali Mardana: According to Vedic culture, is seaweed edible? Prabhupada: Eh? Bali Mardana: Seaweed? Is that edible? Prabhupada: I don't find. Why they should eat seaweed? Bali Mardana: In Asia, many people eat seaweed. Certain types of plants that grow in the sea. Prabhupada: No, no. Ramesvara: In America it is very popular. Prabhupada: That is all right, but why man should eat seaweed? Morning Walk at Marina del Rey -- July 14, 1974, Los Angeles Brahmananda: They have farms, they call them sea farms and they specially grow the seaweed for cultivation. Prabhupada: Krsna is very kind. If you want this kind of food, he'll give you facility. Tamala Krsna: But the Vedic culture, I don't think they like this. They'll prefer this... Do you think Prabhupada? Prabhupada: Vedic culture means Krsna prasada. Tamala Krsna: Yes, Krsna, you cannot offer this to Krsna, can you? Prabhupada: No. Morning Walk -- July 26, 1975, Laguna Beach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
