I've observed that vegens and vegetarians tend to be overweight. Also, if you go in their restaurants and bakeries there is an obsession with desserts--there is a huge selection, they are front and center, and the portions are huge. I think vegens and vegetarians compensate by loading up on carbs and sweets--not refined sugar, mind you, cane juice (as if it mattered).

Food for thought, anyway.

Flame away.
