  1. Greetings!

    I am a researcher doing a survey and study on people's
    eating habits. There's been a lot of mention in the news
    recently about a new word: 'Flexitarian'. It's basically
    defined by someone who is mostly a vegetarian but still eats
    a small amount of meat or fish. The survey is attempting to
    determine if the trend towards a more healthy diet is
    actually occuring despite hearing about growing obesity
    around the world.

    The flexitarian nutrition survey is located here.

    No personal information will be requested whatsoever from
    you. ie. name, address, city, phone, etc.

    Thanks to everyone who participates in the survey and helps
    with my research!

    Based on the survey web site, it doesn't appear that way;
    you appear to be a sponsored flak for an interest group.

    The survey, brief as it is, is so full of undefined terms
    and inadequate response choices, as well as a prejudiced
    presumption favoring a low-meat diet, that one can easily
    presume that you aren't seriously interested in analyzing
    information but are assembling a mailing list to market
    something.

    Do flexitarians (not heard that term before. People from the
    planet Flexi perhaps?) eat Spam?

    Flexitarians?!? For the love of [censored]!!

    Not Flexivores? Not Omnitarians? Herbitarians? "Herbies"
    for short?

    How about Flexiphiles?

    In other words, you're talking about sluggish utility vehicle-
    bound Boomers whose overreaching concern with appearing to
    deserve to live forever drives them to fend off old GR by
    forcing pre-packaged freeze-dried take-out ready-in-20-
    seconds health food into their 20 hours/day, six and a half
    days/week work lives before they fall asleep in front of the
    television, but who don't want to God forbid actually "give
    up" something, aren't you?

    Oh well. As long as you can eat it while driving, it doesn't
    really matter what it's made of, eh?
