I'm on at the same time as BellaTrix!! Sorry, Trixy, you'll always be BellaTrix in my mind, though I can understand why you changed it to Trixy!  :D

"BellaTrix" is okay, Laura.  I don't mind. :)

It IS true that some people get too much protein.  Vegetarians and vegans are not in danger of protein or iron deficiency if we eat well.  The only thing I need to take as a supplement is EPA-DHA oils, and I only take it because I hate seaweed.  Most people get these oils by eating fish, but nowadays there's so much mercury and lead and other toxins in fish that it's not worth it.  Fish get it FROM seaweed, anyway.

Potassium? (Sorry, I'm not giving up.)

Oh, we get enouph potassium.  Green veggies have more potassium then meat.  Here is a list of things that you can get pottasium out of-- potatoes (a lot), bananas (I don't really like bananas though), raisins, watermelon, oranges, dates, almonds, peanuts, bunch of beans, broccoli, carrots, soy, spinach, tomatoes (I don't like plain tomatoes).  That's not all of them.

P.S. if you are a vegetarian and eat fish, then you aren't truly a vegetarian.  I am truly a vegetarian.  Even if I accidentally ate tuna when I was two because dad was luring Fluffy cat out from behind the couch.

P.S.S. Google "foods with potassium."  You'll find more foods with potassium in them.

This comment explains all. Ok, I need to quit talking like I'm an ancient wielder of the blade or something like that. Yeah, I'm an omnivore. I eat both. And also, Admin: I think we should be able to post pictures in our posts because you won't let us post links outside of Cricket due to hackers and viruses.

You can post pictures you have taken yourself of pets or scenery, just no people or photos copied from somewhere.
