I think you are right Katherine. One of my grandsons eats nothing but pot noodles, burghers and Coke, and I am sure a vegan diet is far healthier than this! He is not alone either. Dee

Of course, kids are at risk of defieciency just by eating the usual kinds of crap that is commonly used for food these days, such as big macs and soda pop. But one rarely hears the doctors getting as upset with that as they do with veganism. sorry, mike, I couldn't resist stating the other side. Kathryn
