Couldn't agree with you more, I'm getting sick and tired of people that speak ill of sports martial arts. Just because we don't tr... |

I love sushi, but I can't eat it if it has that nasty green stuff in/on it. What's it called? Wasabi? Horseradish and mustard with green food coloring. Seriously. Real wasabi is rare and the taste (so I am told, I haven't tried it myself) is MUCH different than the horseradish-based "wasabi" most r... |

Out. Generally when sleeping or using the restroom.
I don't drink Coke. Caffeine is nasty. I do drink root beer (rarely). It does make me burp. |

FDA (and USDA) is a joke. We've got bovine growth hormones in our meats and milk and GMO products on our plates. Aside from that, their approval often falls on products that are later recalled. Some herbal suppliments are full of crap (and some even dangerous, depending on your medical history), and... |

I guess the American Dietetic Association is in cahoots with the...um...non-meat....industry. You mean Monsanto? The company that makes 80% of American corn and also a considerable amount of wheat and soy ? Yeah, actually, ADA is funded considerably by them. In case you didn't know, Monsanto was th... |

1. That video might be more effective without the sweaty, bloody guy covered in plastic wrap and the bad music. Seriously. (I am aware that it's supposed to be "artistic," but it really doesn't work out that way) 2. Is there a humane way to die at all? Actually, death from natural causes is much mor... |

My experience was while I was practicing Tai Chi Chuan, or rather Chi Kung exercises that aid in Tai Chi Chuan involving focusing energy. As far as the experience?

Honestly, that is despicable, but that alone would not be high on my list of reasons to invade Iraq, especially considering even the US is not innocent of some brutality. They should have just taken Hussein out in 1991 using commandos and let the Iraqis elect their own leadership. Instead they wait... |

As for North Korea, I think what we and Japan should do is encourage them to overthrow Kim Jong Il, by refusing to support him anymore. Violence is not always the answer. Of course I care more about the whole world than about just America. It's the military nuts who only care about "number one". Re... |

Cos I love bacon. Also, I think thats factory farming your talking about. All the stuff I eat is organic! "Organic" is a buzzword that doesn't mean quite as much as it should. Furthermore, something can still be labelled "organic" while also fitting into the definition of "factory farmed." Their st... |

1. B12 deficiency is found in very few omnivores relative to vegans. I believe the percentages is 10% vs. 50%.

"Native American". So an Eskimo is the same as an Apache or a Mayan or an Inca? "European." So an Irishman is the same as a Greek or an Italian or a Finnish person? Indian is a person from India. The only reason why we call NAs Indians is because Columbus was an idiot (any calculation at all would ... |
