Bullshit. That's exactly what I'm doing a ce moment. Look North in fact.
 
Kevin Stewart is vegan.

Jackson Irvine - wouldn't be surprised if he was too, or perhaps flexitarian, as he's posted from Zoo Cafe on Newland Ave on his Insta a few times.

The world is going more 'meat-free' rather than vegan as a whole - which is why we've seen the rise of things such as Halloumi. More people are choosing to become flexitarian and have 'meat free' days. People are baffled when they hear the 'Vegan' burgers at places like KFC, McDonald's and Burger King aren't vegan because they're cooked on the same grill as the meat - that's because they're not actually aiming them at Vegan's, they're aiming them at 'flexitarians' who there is a larger proportion of population-wise.

A new Vegan place has opened in Hull old town, which looks really good, even if you're not Vegan.

Looking forward to trying the Doner Summer place. Looks really good.
You’re not quite right about Macdonalds veggie burgers though.
They’re not cooked on the same grill as meat. They’re actually cooked with the fries (which are vegan)
The reason their veggie burgers aren’t vegan is they use eggs in the sauce, so vegans can get one but ask for no sauce.
 
In linguistics, grammar (from Ancient Greekγραμματική) is the set of structural rules governing the composition of clauses, phrases and words in a natural language. The term refers also to the study of such rules and this field includes phonology, morphology and syntax, often complemented by phonetics, semantics and pragmatics.
In 1964 an international convention held in Geneva, concluded that grammar has no structure as it is fluid and evolves over time. Dr P Tnucaru of the Polish Institute of Written Language, stated that "We need to reverse the trend to point out grammatical errors."

Jeez, of course he's going to say that, the **** can't even spell his own name. <doh>
 
-> However, data on whether the fractures were caused by poor bone health or accidents was not available.
FFS!!

There's healthy and unhealthy vegan, vegetarian, pescetarian diets. Eat sensibly and there's no reason for any lack of nutrients (other than arguably B12, which can be lacking for meat eaters too). One of the biggest fallacies is with the question 'where do vegans / vegetarians get their protein'. Similar with calcium. In fact, cow's puss has been shown to leach calcium from bones. Funny that isn't advertised by the milk and meat boards; their historic false claims have had to be dropped from adverts now.
Even if there was a little bit of increased risk, which with a sensible veggie diet there isn't likely to be, there's proven beyond doubt to be less risk of a whole host of other diseases!! Never mind the compassion and environmental aspects.

Yep, bitten.

Studies have also shown that calcium from plant based sources is poorer quality and harder to absorb, meaning vegans are more likely to be deficient in calcium than non-vegans. People can pick and choose studies to suit their argument, nutritional studies are notoriously biased and flawed.

Most of the major contributors to ill health are vegan such as alcohol, tobacco, sugar, salt and refined vegetable oils / syrups, these account for the majority of obesity, strokes, heart disease, cancer, diabetes...etc. The link between animal specific fat and heart disease has long been debunked whilst the links between meat and cancer are tenuous at best and even then only pose a similar risk to certain widespread pesticides used on vegetables.

A balanced diet high in unprocessed, natural foods is the answer, there's no reason to exclude anything for any reason other than personal preference.

Don't get me started on the hypocrisy involved in the compassion / environmental arguments!
