clipper's remarks: We do not protect our water as well as we should but we do a better job than most of the areas we are importing fish from, I believe.

Wonder if they sell portable kits so you could test your meal before ordering at Red Lobster is you still kill fish - er eat fish. Sorry, I am a vegan - grin.

EPA: Toxic chemicals in freshwater fish widespread

The Environmental Protection Agency found mercury — a pollutant primarily released from coal-fired power plants — and polychlorinated biphenyls in all fish samples it collected from 500 lakes and reservoirs from 2000-2003. At 49 percent of those lakes and reservoirs, mercury concentrations exceeded levels that the EPA says are safe for people eating average amounts of fish.

Mercury consumed by eating fish can damage the nervous system and cause learning disabilities in developing fetuses and young children.

The term “vegan” was coined by Elsie and Donald Watson in 1944 to describe a group of vegetarians who are also cutting out other animal products. Since then, veganism developed an elitist, health-conscious reputation among social circles. This lifestyle also became popular with different advocates such as the hippies but it still maintained its air of uniqueness. Today, most vegans try to play a role for food reputation and supports veganism as an enjoyable and trendy lifestyle.

The path to becoming a vegetarian or a Vegan is very long and for some people is quite laborious. However, there are also individuals who find it easier to become a full-pledge vegetarian. When people began their habit of their vegan lifestyle, they stop taking red meat, and continue with fish and chicken. The next step is to stop white meats as well; many will replace the protein with different “fake” meats that are available such as veggie meat or tofu. Most people, however, don’t like tofu. This is because they cook it the wrong way.

Everyone now knows that processed and fast foods are not the bastions of nutrition, but that shouldn’t make these ingredients found inside them any less revolting. This list sends a clear message: when a packaged food contains more than five ingredients and includes some that are difficult to pronounce, stay away.

1. Fertilizer in Subway Sandwich Rolls

While chemical fertilizers inevitably make it into our produce in trace amounts, you would not expect it to be a common food additive. However, ammonium sulfate can be found inside many brands of bread, including Subway’s. The chemical provides nitrogen for the yeast, creating a more consistent product.

1. Liquids are often healthy and easy to take. In a usual vegan house, it is a common for people to begin the day with either fresh fruit juices or a vegetable smoothie. You can often maintain a diet for green liquids at any time of the day. This can give you some extra energy.
