(it's hard to remember AND I am dating myself). However, I became a complete vegetarian and for a small time...vegan...after reading that book. I also struggled with how to eat, how to feed my children (as I had both of them). And, by the way, my now 6'5'' son had no meat until he was 6 years old. However, as I became more involved in athletics, as well as having a full-time plus job AND raising two children by myself, I succumbed to adding fish and fowl to my diet. I'm not making excuses, just telling my story...as it is today. But, I agree...I love going out to meet my friends, but have always seldomed included feeling like I have to "eat out" to "be out". It's always a matter of priorities...jj I read “Diet for a Small Planet” in 1968-69??? (it’s hard to remember AND I am dating myself).
