Lovliebutterfly – Maybe if someone leaves near a farm in South Africa, then its possible to be a fruitarian:).. Ya, i share your thoughts on the milking cows… I’ll look for alternatives of cow milk. A lot of people do argue on that milk thing, whether milk is actually good for us or not. Till now, i’m neutral on this one.By the way, I tried the cauliflower kalia recette once again, potatoes did not burn this time:) and was cooked in 2 tablespoon of oil..

@Ashish: Wow. You became a vegi too. I dont believe this lol. Fruitarian.. If I have good fruits to eat then I can have a fruitarian breakfast only.. as for the rest I need a poor animal lol

@Ajith: Meat along with sardines…and the splitters… that I call my food lol. Concerning Tom Hanks… maybe its him lol… he got a coconut head

@Lovliebutterfly: I think I agree with you on the milk stuff… ah i got an excuse to not drink milk… yuuck i hate it. I only like ice cream wlol. KFC salad? pfff…. its a big bowl with about 7 to 8 small piece of kfc …very small pieces. and surrounded by a crowd of lettuce leaves with sour olives. I hate that. Its like a rabbit food lol. :p There is no salt but an overdose of vinegar. Yuuck.

Kurt – KFC chicken salad is not really salad, is it! I’ve never eaten it myself but I’ve never been a fan of KFC! (Do a search on KFC + animal cruelty on Youtube and you’ll understand why).
But that made me laugh too, sounds like my dad – “Well mt truth is that I will die if i dont eat an animal lol.”

Ashish – I wished I could be a fruitarian! But I don’t think it could be for soon, if I’m living somewhere surrounded by fruit trees then maybe. But in modern cities I don’t think it’s possible…I’ll starve before a fruit will fall from a tree!
Milk is not too hard to give up especially in the UK you have a lot of alternatives. In Mauritius it might be a bit hard. But I noticed, when giving up milk, that my sinus had cleared up and so has my asthma. I am much better. The thing is milk cannot be properly digested by the human body and therefore creates mucus. Also, it is strange that the human race is the only mammal in nature that drinks the milk of another mammal and that also pass the age of infancy. No other animals in nature drink the milk of another animal and certainly not pass infancy. They do eat the eggs and other animals but not the milk. When I came to know about this, I just found it weird to drink the milk of a cow which was intended for its baby! It is also sad the way milking cows are treated on milk farms. Anyway that was just my opinion.

I am a major sea food and meat lover. Though I eat a lot of red meat I complement it with pleanty of fat splitters like garlic, onions, olives and small fishes such as sardines. By forefathers’ grace (since I dont’ believe in god I use that term quite often ) I am somehow maintaining a rather lean figure.

And man, that pork man looks really funny…and does the coconut man somehow resemble Tom Hanks?

Well i must say that ever since i’m in UK, i have adopted a meat-free diet… Having said that, i’m not a vegan though, since i do drink milk, wear fleece (you should be, given the winter here).. Anyway, the breakfast consists mainly of fruit and cereals. For lunch i have some toast accompanied with salad and for dinner, i mainly cooked veg food. By the way, i came across a new terminology – fruitarian, interesting though since they only eat what would fall from tree. Wikipedia gives a good description of this.

@avish – “Well mt truth is that I will die if i dont eat an animal lol” – lol

Not really. By salad, I don’t mean just a few leaves of lettuce! I would definitely go hungry with just that! But my salads consists of, most often, raw carrot pieces, cucumber, avocado (when I can get them), couscous, baby potatoes (boiled or steamed), boiled beans like red kidney beans, chickpea etc, sweetcorn, tomatoes (I’m not a great fan of tomatoes though!).
Well, it’s quite a wholesome salad that’s low on fat and still filling.

And if I feel hungry after 2 hours, it’s nearly tea time and I eat biscuits, cakes or more fruits.
I don’t know, it just works out for me. But I think for guys it might be not enough. My boyfriend needs to eat bread or noodles for lunch, plus veggies, beans or bean burgers or tofu (teokon).
I think it really depends on people.
