Vegan cooking Class
         I took a 2 hour vegan class today at the hospital outpatient center. There were useful tips. We got a free lunch for our free class. It was just samples of her salads. It was kind of fun, if you have low requirements for fun.

         I learned that the healthiest foods have three criteria: no animal product, no (or low) saturated fats, has fiber. I don't mind cutting back on meat products, but dairy products are my addiction. I can't make it without eggs and cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, ice cream, and milk in baked goods, etc. Chicken is no better than beef or pork. Meat is meat. Fat is fat. Period. Olive oil, EVO, coconut oil are no lower in calories than bacon fat or corn oil.

         Physicians tells us that now we no longer count carbs if you're diabetic or trying to lose weight. Concentrate on plants to be healthier. This group claims the way to reduce arthritis, maintain (or possibly reverse) diabetes, prevent cancer, and live with heart disease is to eat a plant based diet. And physical movement, of course.

         I have already reduced my meat consumption, due to inflation, but now I will make a conscientious choice to do veggies and fruit. I take fiber supplements and occasionally eat oatmeal, so now more veggies will increase that. I'll see how it turns out. We did not see any cooking in this class, only mixing and a lecture.
