Kate Adams has been immersed in healthy food since an early age. Her parents helped to launch the original Vegeburger and Kate worked in health publishing for 10 years. She was responsible for hits such as Gillian McKeith's You are What you Eat and Tiger Aspects Cook Yourself Thin. Depressed by her expanding waistline, Kate Adams set out to lose weight and keep it off for good. Six months later and over two stone lighter she decided to share her experience by setting up the Flat Tummy Club.

When I used to live in London this hippy yank guy called Greg Sams I once did some work for, claimed he patented the first vegeburger. But he was a total bs merchant.

In this interview, Gregory Sams, author of 'Sun of GOd' provides fascinating insights into the meaning of our closest star -- the Sun. Gregory proposes that far from being just a meaningless ball of plasma, the Sun is an aware and conscious entity. Is this why so many ancient civilizations from the Sumerians, to the Egyptians, Mayans, Aztecs, Celts and Native Americans revered and worshiped the sun as a god? Gregory's ideas may seem radical, but up until 2,000 years ago, this was a widespread perspective throughout the world.
i like the cut of this fella's jib tbh

This is my least favourite article that Iâve seen in the Guardian for a while. The uncritical acceptance of the opening sentence As the saying goes: if your granny wouldnât have recognised whatâs in it, itâs probably not real food. intensely annoys me, and it just gets worse from there.
I hope they publish a response from someone like Ruby Tandoh or Anthony Warner.
― AlanSmithee, Thursday, 12 April 2018 15:29 (six years ago) link
that sentence is one of my biggest pet peeves because there's a certain... I don't know if I'd go so far as to say "casual racism," but a certain thoughtlessness to it. namely, that the hypothetical granny probably wouldn't recognize food from almost anywhere else in the world
