Any other Vegetarians out there?

[Beatriz]

I'm not a vegetarian but eat little meat and fish. I fully agree with bertowud, we should treat animals better. I've watched Home (the movie) and it's really disgusting what they do with cows, and pigs...
The problem is that people tend to eat too much meat and the planet can't cope with that, it's a waste of resources...

Best thing for the iron is green veg; specially spinich, kale, broccoli, but need lemon squeezed on them to digest properly.

Just to help (I'm a nutritionist), you can get plenty iron by eating chickpeas or lentils, they have a lot of iron and if you eat them with citrus fruit or peper (food with vitamin C), you increase the absorption of iron.
