Upon reading his argument, I have to admit he has produced some decent information to back up his, claims, but he seems to forget a whole lot. Upon first reading about it, I thought about how slavery is really a terrible comparison, considering that slavery was a human invention and eating meat is a trait found in nearly every animal group.

Furthermore, I read a nice response to Motavalli’s article, written by Kevin Slaten. In it, Slaten talks about the many advantages to eating meat and how crazy Motavalli is. Both articles are really worth a read.

In the end, the advantages of meat for outweigh the hocus pocus supposed bad results. Another article I found, talks about how meats can be even more advantageous than previously thought. Check that out here.

So, for creating an unnecessary scare and not fully researching the benefits of meat, shame on you Jim Montavalli, enemy of unvegans everywhere.

I hope you all appreciated my little April Fool’s joke yesterday. Never fear, I’m still around and just as unvegan as ever.

Today I would like to call attention to Jennifer McCann, my first Unvegan Enemy. In response to the incredible…nay, fantastic website, thisiswhyyourefat.com, McCann has founded the absurd, yet painfully popular, thisiswhyyourethin.blogspot.com. I mean, come on, she couldn’t even pay GoDaddy ten bucks to register her own domain name? She obviously has no qualms with loading the page with ads and hawking her book…

That aside, it is the very essence of the blog that sends shivers down my spine. The subtitle reads, “Inspiring images of the things that make and keep us healthy.” Now, I’m not saying it’s wrong to be healthy. Being healthy is a great thing, but a quick look at the pictures on the site showed me no signs of anything meaty. Does she think vegetables are the only thing that can make people thin and healthy? I don’t eat vegetables and I am thin…ish. Well at least I have a comfortable BMI. And truth be told, I would rather not look as emaciated and malnourished as I find many vegans to look.

I think McCann is forgetting the important health benefits of eating meat and other unvegan staples, ie. iron, phosphorous and protein. The list could go on and on, and let’s not forget about all the taste benefits. Meat may not have all sorts of pretty colors and look as good in pictures as vegetables do, but let us not lose sight of the reason food exists…for eating. Not for photographing.

For downplaying the value of meats, assuming all thin people are vegans and forgetting the real reason we eat food, Jennifer McCann, you are a most unlikeable Unvegan Enemy.
