Hi Peter,
Thanks for responding to my question. Cholesterol was my main concern when
I decided to stop eating eggs (cooked) about a year ago. Around that same
time was when I stopped eating dairy as well. I have been vegetarian for
about two years. I have been eating more and more raw vegetarian food for
the last 2 months.
I have never tried raw eggs before and will have to do more research on
cholesterol before I decide whether I want to try them or not. I have
trouble seeing myself trying other RAF (seafood might be an exception),
although I do remember munching on raw chop meat when I was a kid. It
seems that the longer I am a vegetarian the less appealing meat is. I
think that I'll have to try a raw vegetarian diet a little while longer and
see if it works. I am interested in being as physically fit and healthy as
I can. I still have more things to try suchas growing my own sprouts.
btw, I am a strict vegetarian primarily for health reasons (I recently
decided not to use the term "vegan" because of the connotations connected
with it, plus vegan is considered a way of life free from -all- animal
products; I still wear leather shoes, etc).
Steve
P.S. I'll see if the books that you quoted from are at the library.
P.S.S. thanks Kirt for the cholesterol stats.
