Great article! Fruits and vegetables are natural whole foods that should be part of every meal.

Be yourself and be happy, never stop dreaming!

Happy Natural Life,

I’ve never thought of eating vegetables, fruit and natural products as diet food, because I like eating them all the time. However, this post made me realize that is how many people view diets (btw… I don’t like ‘diets’). Junk food is normal food to them. They want to eat junk food anytime. Natural food is seen as time-consuming, expensive and unique (au contraire). We all need to be learn more about food.

Hi SunCear,
Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

I like the idea of taking friends to vegetarian restaurants. It can be an eye opener for them.

Take care,

Hi Evelyn,

That people see these foods as “diet foods” is a huge part of why people have such an aversion to them. So many think that the fruits and veggies are bland and are some kind of punishment. I’ve been taking more and more friends to vegetarian restaurants just to give them an idea that vegs can actually be filling and yummy.

Hey Aaron,
You are probably right! Yeah, I couldn’t believe that.

Thanks for chiming in!

I know that most people that consider healthy, natural foods “diet foods” are probably eating mostly junk. I just wonder what the author was thinking submitting a post with that reference.
Maybe they assume since you are vegan you must be “dieting.”

I just chuckle now when people comment on my diet food or rabbit food or hippie dippie food choices. Fruits, veggies, nuts, seeds, grain…this is FOOD, real food with real nutrients. I have enough self respect to feed myself what I know is great for me.
