I do worry that he's restricting his diet so much that he's unable to enjoy his food, but hopefully he will eventually sort out what triggers his flares. As you point out, it may not be ANYTHING to do with diet. Who knows.<br /><br />YP: I guess most people are flexitarians, really! (Isn't that the same as an omnivore?) Anyway, I would agree that being guilt-free about eating is important.<br /><br />Ms Moon: Yeah, the fish was unexpected! But then again, maybe they deliberately went for a creature that often gets overlooked in favor of the furry, potentially cuddly ones.<br /><br />Red: Maybe! Just generating buzz!<br /><br />Robin: That's about how I eat, too. Mostly veg, occasionally chicken or fish. Dave sometimes cooks a pork chop or a steak, but that's a rarity.<br /><br />Ellen: Exactly! That's precisely what I say to Dave -- all things in moderation. Interesting theory about selling the ad space! You may be on to something!<br /><br />Sharon: Once a year is probably the healthy maximum. Ha!<br /><br />Bug: I'm thinking they deliberately want us to think about creatures we wouldn't otherwise consider.<br /><br />Jenny-O: That IS an interesting theory. Maybe if I read Arabic it would make more sense!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-83855549776048014612018-02-06T18:32:32.088+00:002018-02-06T18:32:32.088+00:00I had the same thought as Ellen - maybe the owner ...I had the same thought as Ellen - maybe the owner of the car has sold advertising space on it.

Flexitarianism rocks! <br />Those vans are awesome! And I have to say that using a fish in that illustration of a precious life instead of like...a calf... is a bit mysterious to me.

And the lemons and the agaphantus and more and it is totally crowded because there's the plumeria and the olives and it feels like a room full of rowdy teenagers.<br /><br />I have ulcerative colitis which is a bit like Crohn's and over the last 18 years have tried every fad or real diet in the book. I am mostly vegetarian and maybe 3 out of 7 days vegan and it makes NO difference at all. <br />I think there are other factors at work here on another level (gut microbiota, nerves, innate bacterial response) and diet is just a minor player. Let Dave enjoy a stressfree meal of whatever is my advice.Sabinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09015827501648296977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-53750812324443636912018-02-06T07:16:32.121+00:002018-02-06T07:16:32.121+00:00Here's another link:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.g...Here's another link:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24356243Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313726816776097840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-73323402000808005982018-02-06T07:14:42.260+00:002018-02-06T07:14:42.260+00:00Those ARE weird cars -- and you've written per...Those ARE weird cars -- and you've written perfectly about them! I think I've said this before, but there are many people who are finding relief from Crohn's flares and symptoms by using cannabis.
