    DivingBiker - I still have your tofu cookbooks. I am using them, but not as much as I did in the beginning. Do you want them back now? I will be happy to mail them back to you whenever you want them.

    And thank you again for letting me borrow them!
    Cool. We take our vegetarians however we can get them.

    No rush on the cookbooks, I have plenty.

    Ground Beef News

    After reading about ground beef - I'd think there would be more vegetarians. If you missed it - here's the article:

    Well, that just re-inforces my desire not to eat meat from any mammal whose name I didn't know.

    I met one of the Seattle Jack-In-The-Box E.coli victims. Bad stuff.

    Yikes...and yuck! Makes me glad that when I do buy hamburger, it's from a local grass-fed farm.

    Oh, yuck yuck yuck. We switched from ground beef to ground turkey years ago... but I don't know if turkey has any better processing practices (??).

    But, ew. Talk about mystery meat.

    I didn't read the article... perfer not to. (Incase I have a hamburger anytime soon!)

    I dont' do much ground meat of any kind. I know Ground Turkey (unless it is ground turkey breast) is "ground everything of the turkey".

    I have a kitchen aid mixer (love it) w/ the meat grinder attachment and will grind my own chicken breast or pork...(could even do beef/steak). I don't necessarily buy organic/free range, etc meat--but if I grind it myself I know mostly what is in there!

    Just a thought.

    "Food" for thought:

    Two researchers at the University of Chicago estimated that switching to a vegan diet would have a bigger impact than trading in your gas guzzler for a Prius (PDF). A study out of Carnegie Mellon University found that the average American would do less for the planet by switching to a totally local diet than by going vegetarian one day a week....

    The visceral reaction against anyone questioning our God-given right to bathe in bacon has been enough to scare many in the environmental movement away from this issue.
