Wow, Amadeus, did you go to the trouble of 'de-coding'
my post in order to reply? I'm impressed. I really
don't know what happened - when I mentioned that I was
worried about how the formatting would turn out I was
referring to line breaks, etc., not whether it would
go as HTML. I also could not read it - even with the
mail client I used to send it. However, when I used my
Yahoo client to read it there was not problem. Odd.

Yes, this was one of the arguments originally used to
support the 'fat makes you fat' lie.

Notice I posted 'animal protein', which would of
course include eggs, meat, fish, milk products
(typical for an omnivore). Add to that the grains,
bean, and other plant protein in the non-junk-food
(yet SAD) omnivore's diet, and you get a pretty high
protein intake.

If 100% of the protein calories are removed to fulfill
protein requirements, then you have an energy
shortage. But 100% of the protein is never utilized,
so the remainder is used for energy. You CAN get
energy from very lean cuts of meat. (A protein calorie
is *still* a calorie). Which, in general, makes me
question these so-called protein ceilings (in regards
to energy requirements). I think 'rabbit starvation'
has more to do with unfulfilled dietary fat
requirements than a general energy shortage.

Or you could eat organ meat, or 'proper' (paleo) fatty
meats/fish.

I think the point is that so many of those factors can
be taken care of with a serving of a single food
source (meat). And even more can be taken care of with
a serving of organ meats or fatty fish. I this the
'fail after some time' could be solved with a serving
of the above once or twice a week for *most*
vegetarians.

Again, organ meats or 'proper' (paleo) cuts of
meat/fish.
You know, not too many years ago it was common for
meat eaters to use all of the animal, especially those
who lived in rural areas. Nowadays the organ meats are
seen as being inferior, and are used as fillers in pet
foods or discarded (or fed to other feed animals).
Huge mistake.

It may be a topic mostly in the US - perpetually
fueled by the grain lobby.
