My hubby eats like a kid. It took me years of saying, “eat your veggies or no desert” or “picking the veggies off you plate just means you have to eat the load in 1 go after you’ve had your meat”.

He acknowledges it was an unhealthy diet but he’ll still avoid veggies when my back is turned. He simply doesn’t like the taste. Early on in our relationship, when I still ate meat, I was shocked still at how he cooked and ate!
Eg. OMG, where are the veggies?!? /sheepishly points to mince & onions.

Some meat-eaters, esp junk foodies such as my hubby, will in all honesty, acknowledge the fact that most V&V’s eat healthier.

That’s not true in all cases.

I come from a very health conscious meat-eating family. I’m not in the opinion that my diet is less or more healthy than the rest of my family. Just for the fact they eat meat and I don’t… you know what I mean?

If you talk to a health conscious person, meat-eater or veg, they will know where they are getting their viatmins from…

Healthy meat-eaters eat veggies too and yes they do get their folate, calcium, iron, magnesium… and vitamin D from sunshine.

You talk to a junk foodie, veg or not, they will say, “me hungry, me eat.”
