(2:30) Many people start out feeling good on a vegan diet, but it is typically because they are cutting out processed foods. It's not uncommon to give veganism up later because it doesn't properly energize the body. Vinnie shares some of the stories he would have to deal with (wheatgrass is like blood). Anna is more neutral about the idea of plant-based. She wants to make sure people are fed to their dietary preferences. There are various things you need be careful about when eating at restaurants. Anna is going to FoodExpo. (20:00) Vinnie gives her some advice of what to watch out for. Anna wants to see what is trending and to also get the word out about providing truly healthy options. Anna reads suggestions on Reddit about what to say or not to say to Girl Scout cookie sellers when they approach you. (32:00) They discuss some of the realities of trying to shield the Girl Scout girls from people's very real answers, which may be related to health. The social pressure to buy cookies is ubiquitous.
