Almost every convert to a plant-based diet I have spoken with has had a similar experience: the palate, no longer desensitized by toxic husbandry pharmacology, high concentrations of pesticide, saturated fats, and protein overdose, opens up to nuances of flavor and texture that could not previously have been detected, much less appreciated. The idea that you're restricting yourself, limiting yourself, doing something reductive and chaste, just vanishes.<BR/>--E.C.

And when i run out, i'll eat my clothes. Actually, being vegan here is just like anywhere else. it takes an adjustment period to figure out what is typically cooked with animals or its products. But once past it, I have had a relatively easy time. But being vegan here keeps me thinner than if i were back in CA where there are too many vegan dessert options available!<BR/>No tour of flanders. But as a consolation, i am racing Het Volk. My team is focusing on french races and RVV is conflict of interest with a French Cup. Even though i'm bummed, overall I am thrilled with my decision to race with the Prunes.<BR/>:cPEANUThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01084132705399321019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-64682271484281628232007-03-09T17:39:00.000+01:002007-03-09T17:39:00.000+01:00are you doing the Tour of Flanders?are you doing the Tour of Flanders?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669315206751120504.post-28460438973638128412007-03-09T15:21:00.000+01:002007-03-09T15:21:00.000+01:00how do you do it in Belgium!
