Let's talk.
The other half of the equation is

people aren't very smart if they dont get protein. there is plenty of protein out there and it's no struggle to maintain a balanced vegetarian diet. there is not nearly the epidemic of malnurished vegetarians as obese, cancerous, diabetic, high cholesterol, parisite-filled meat eaters. whether you are a vegetarian or not, you should have a good variety of legumes, nuts, perhaps whole grains. if you eat less meat, eat more of the others. it's not rocket science. everyone needs a basic understanding of nutrition. i actually personally dont know any unhealthy vegetarians. coconut oil is great stuff- but palm oils aren't the only oils. there are lots and lots of delicious options out there.
