“The world’s current consumption levels will have us raising 120 billion animals a year by 2050. This number would require using more land for agriculture than exists. And even if we could pilfer the land or [devise] technology to achieve this, it’s unlikely the atmosphere, land, and water could handle it.”

—-author Mark Bittman, explaining in the April 2010 issue of Vegetarian Times why eating meat and other animal products is not sustainable.

“Life as a vegetarian is one long line of risottos.”

—-Author Mark Haddon, while reading a restaurant menu during an interview with The Independent.

Life can also be like a long line of portabello mushroom sandwiches, veggie burgers, salads or any other standard menu item placed there just to appease the vegetarians.

Even Forrest Gump couldn’t have stated it better.

You never know what you’re going to get–or how it’s going to taste.

“These diets that are out there that say ‘I can eat all the protein and fat that I want and I’m going to lose weight. Well you know what? You’re absolutely going to lose weight when you eat like that. But what you’re doing to your heart and arteries with all that animal protein and fat — it’s damaging to the molecular structure of your body.”

Bob Harper, The Biggest Loser coach, taking a break from teaching yoga to explain to That’s Fit that the key to healthy weight isn’t about cutting carbs and downing all the “lean” ground beef you can handle.

“The pancakes are whole-wheat flour and oat bran and almond milk and a little baking soda. I think I added some peaches — whatever I have lying around. In winter it’s only frozen fruit. People who are used to IHOP pancakes — big and fluffy — they would be disappointed. I had an ex-girlfriend; when we were breaking up — one of the few endings of a relationship that was a bit contentious — one of her parting shots was having her tell me she never liked my pancakes. I thought that was very cruel. Insult my sexual prowess, my intellect, but not my pancakes.”

—-Moby, in the New York Times, on his vegan pancakes. Moby was featured on Epicurious (video above) awhile back demonstrating how he whips up his not big and fluffy, but still delicious pancakes.

If you promise not to say anything bad about them and send Moby into an ego disaster, grab the recipe and try them out for yourself.
