  1. The man who founded the Vegan Society just died--
    at age 95! Maybe a plant-based diet might be okay
    after all, huh? Of course, one swallow doesn't make
    a summer.

  2. He founded the Vegan society in 1944. 61 years ago. Is there any
    evidence that he actually followed a vegan diet all this time? Highly
    unlikely.

    Dr. Walford's 120 year diet appears to me to be heavily vegetarian if not at
    times vegan. There are parts of the Mediterranean area (remember the
    benefits of the Mediterranean diet?) where people follow a largely
    vegetarian if not outright vegan diet. When living in Egypt I never quite
    warmed up to a breakfast of foul madamas (long cooked beans), pita bread,
    fresh fruit and dates if I could get eggs fried in butter, beef (of course)
    sausage and buttered toast or to falafel for lunch when I could cook up some
    burgers instead. Even a lot of people in the old South ate a mostly vegan
    diet. I remember being in southern Middle Tennessee. A friend told me that
    they had asparagas for dinner last night, right out of the garden. I said
    that was wonderful. I asked what the main dish was. He told me that was
    the only dish. He reminded me that lots of people grew up eating beans and
    veggies and things from the root cellar because they didn't have
    refrigeration.

    A typical cheap TC shot. I think you are an under-the-table shill for
    the beef industry and the Atkins goon squad. IMO, highly likely.

    Prove me wrong but like the position you always take, I don't believe a
    word you say. I catchy catch-22. How do you like your rationale applied
    to you? You're such a goof ball troll.

    Hey, sometimes people stick their necks out, like this vegan guy, then
    he finds that it isn't workable and rather than admit to the world that
    he was wrong, he just goes thru the motions publicly. It happens. And
    some guys are just that stubborn.

    Wow, TC.... you sound more and more desperate all the time.

    You have absolutely no evidence whatsoever that what you say is true,
    yet you say it anyway. Truly pathetic.

    Do us a favor and provide us a with a list of ultra-high-protien
    low-carbers who have reached the age of 95.

    On second thought.... don't. You tend to lie an awful lot, so don't
    bother, troll.

    And by the way.... is there any evidence that you practice the diet
    that you preach? See, sometimes people stick their necks out, like
    yourself, then realize that your diet isn't workable and rather than
    admit to the world that they were wrong, they just go thru the motions
    publicly. It happens. And some guys are just that stubborn.

    If meatless, dairyless diets are so dangerous,
    this guy should have died long ago, because he
    started the Vegan Society 61 years ago, and he
    was a vegan for years before then.

    I wonder, though, how much longer he would
    have lived if he had eaten fatty fish a couple
    of times a week. We sent him some fish oil
    capsules for his 90th birthday but he never
    acknowledged taking any. He was known to
    be a purist.

    My point was that you do not know whether or not he actually adhered to
    a vegan diet or not. And my point is still valid.

    Using your reasoning, Dr. Atkins may well have been a closet vegan.
    How can we know for sure, right?

    Your point is, as usual, moot.

    He wrote a book, the diet works, and he was thin and healthy. That is
    evidence enough, isn't it?

    If by "book" you meant "for-profit schlock",
    and if by "the diet works" you meant "for the short term only",
    and if by "thin and healthy" you meant "fat and dead"

    then... I guess you're right!!

    And wasn't Atkins 95 when he died, too??? Oh, wait a minute....

    Now you are just making things up and being very nasty about it. All I
    did was ask a valid question.

    Actually, your point/questions are still moot.

    Anyways, I responded by saying that, based on your reasoning, Atkins
    may well have advocated one diet and practiced another.

    That may well be. But we still don't know if the "vegan" founder
    actually ate vegan.

  15. You seem to be desperately trying to make a point, but have yet to do
    so.

    That won't do him any good remember? Unless they have been an
    ultra-high-protien low-carber since birth it is meaningless.

    Typical TC trolling providing another red herring as you can't prove
    a negative. I don't know if he has figured that out yet. Of course it
    us up to use to prove he followed a vegan diet not for TC to prove
    that he didn't. Tell us why he wouldn't? I know why Atkins might not
    as he had the whole corporate empire thing. Guess what know one had
    followed a single diet from birth.

    You NEVER ask, you make statements that are usually baseless and
