If you fell for it, this is a really bad sign wrt your ability to filter out dietary-pseudoscientific nonsense. > Do you look at all the obese people and say, man, that non-vegan diet you are on looks really malnourishing The average obese American is on a diet much closer to a vegan diet than a meat-based diet. They get most of their calories from bread, rice, peanut oil, soy products, corn syrup, canola oil, etc. etc.
