New Amino Acid Discovered

Try eating meat or a variety of food. What are you? A fucking artsy simalcrotous doppelganging hippie vegan wannabe? A puppeted parrot regurgitating the ridiculous "FOOD PYRAMID" crap? What kind of a comment is that.?

Timothy, that is called grasping at straws. It is better to be thought of as a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

Idiot.

(NOTE: for all those idiots who still think you should have 11 serving of grain per day and less of the "evil" meat, consider what profit margins are made from grains as compared to meats. Meats have a low markup, because it costs a bit to bring fresh poultry, fish and beef to your door. Also beware that chains re-label fresh meat and fish, because they lose money if they don't extend the past due date a few days. Notice how Americans are fat? And they eat and more more carbohydrates, as proscribed by the PYRAMID. It's a crock. It keeps us fat, unhealthy, so the big wigs like POST and other grain brokers make out like bandits while the insulin imbalance/influx due to carbohydrate (AKA SUGAR, yes, even starch "complex carbs" is quickly rendered into sugars by amylase, present in salvia.) causes adult onset diabetes, and general arterial distress. Yes, folks, its carbohydrate induces influxes of insulin that promote arterial plaque, and fat storage. So all you Nabisco Snack-Wells fucking losers, realize you are fat, because nothing is free. There is no Olestra potato chip to save the days FATTIES. Eat a fresh non processed food diet (decidedly unprofitable for the food industry,) and get off you fat fucking couch potato ass and exercise. Or, end up like that fat fucking hog CowboyNeal (who looks like a CowGirl in a silhouette.) I challenged an diabetic once. I told him if he ate no carbohydrates, none, for a few days, just sashimi, and chicken, fat and protein only. He didn't have to take his shots for three days. His blood sugar stayed perfect. He then when back to shooting himself up and stuffing mashed potatoes, claiming that a high fat diet is unhealthy. I say being slave to a needle and a poison industry is.
