In no way was my post meant as a personal attack on those who choose to omit certain foods from their diet. I apologise if that was how it seemed Valarya. I've no right to bother anyone about their choices anyway, seeing as I've chosen not to eat meat for 20 years now! I won't go into my reasons, they're not all that interesting, but it wasn't a 'health' choice. No, my post was more about 'experts' procrastinating and then changing their minds the following week on what is good/bad for you. Take red wine for instance, one week it was really bad for your health, it was gonna pickle your liver! The week after, it's of tremendous benefit to your heart! It goes on and on. We're constantly bombarded with this sort of thing through the media and eventually it begins to grate.
My motto is everything in moderation (mostly ) and a little bit of what you fancy does you good. Each to their own, live and let live and all that.
