    Also because it’s still the only way to get enough protein unless you want to drink a bunch of shakes every day. Anyone who has counted calories before can tell you that most men are deficient unless they’re heavy meat eaters.

      As a vegetarian for 30 uears and now Vegan for probably 2-3 years, i can attest that your protien statement is false. i have never done protien shakes as a diet supplement. The lentils I buy are 30% protien. Other Beans are good also.

        Yeah but then you have to eat beans, and I can’t stand beans.

          Lol. plain beans can be boring. But cooked into varoius Indian, ethiopian or african dishes with spices they are delicious
