Guest guest Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Thanks Oliver for the NFO on OJ , I only just saved it from drowning amongst the pet threads! My the POMS are a nation of animal lovers (*humor*). Though there is not a specific mention to the filtering process. Further investigation me thinks.... But that's a good start, cheers mate. Being Australian, I can confirm aussie is okay for vgn food. Except for the far North(s), north WA, the Northern Territory etc. The more north one goes, the more belief you'll find that bread doesn't rise without animal fat. So Good is made by Sanitarium.... Started off a bit like Kellogs, but then I think it didn't do an about-turn like Kellogs. Most of Sanitariums food is pretty good for vgn. They also make breakie cerials, like Wheat-Bix (not Wheat-a-bix). Can anyone suggest relationships between dermatitis and food stuffs? I've got it on my finger tips and itchy palms. Grrrrrr, I suspect soap... but eff knows. I read a funny letter in the guardian, someone saying vegetarianism isn't sustainable as it's completely reliant on foreign imported foods. LOL. It was in reply to the article written at Christmas about how everyone should go vgn. They obviously haven't been to the MAF web site, quite clearly states 90% of soy plants go to fodder. There are the ones who find evidence to support their beliefs, and the ones who shape their beliefs to the evidence. Need I say which one he was. Rowan --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Most of our food comes from an organic box scheme, but we do notice the " hungry gap " a lot (the gap caused by the chunk of winter that's unfit for sowing stuff). Trying to live purely on fresh UK grown veg. at the moment would probably be (a) difficult and (b) very boring. However, the box scheme also uses non-flown imports, so it's not as bad as it could be (plus there's processed / frozen / dried foods...). Not sure I could cope without foreign pulses. For Christmas my sister bought us a Bio-Snacky bean sprouter, and it's great :-) Three layers for sprouting beans / seeds and you just pour a pint of water in the top, it rattles though to the bottom and you empty it out again. Next step is to start getting the seeds to use with it from HDRA. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
