       Just went on a Delta flight, and I thought the vegan biscuit was
       amazing. The only people who prefer the left pic to the right

       How well we know the stereotype of the rugged Plains Indian:
       killer of buffalo, dressed in quill-decorated buckskin,
       elaborately feathered eaddress, and leather moccasins, living in
       an animal skin teepee, master of the dog and horse, and stranger
       to vegetables. But this lifestyle, once limited almost
       exclusively to the Apaches, flourished no more than a couple
       hundred years. It is not representative of most Native Americans
       of today or yesterday. Indeed, the "buffalo-as-lifestyle"
       phenomenon is a direct result of European influence, as we shall
       see.
       Among my own people, the Choctaw Indians of Mississippi and
       Oklahoma, vegetables are the traditional diet mainstay. A French
       manuscript of the eighteenth century describes the Choctaws'
       vegetarian leanings in shelter and food. The homes were
       constructed not of skins, but of wood, mud, bark and cane. The
       principal food, eaten daily from earthen pots, was a vegetarian
       stew containing corn, pumpkin and beans. The bread was made from
       corn and acorns. Other common favorites were roasted corn and
       corn porridge. (Meat in the form of small game was an infrequent
       repast.) The ancient Choctaws were, first and foremost, farmers.
       Even the clothing was plant based, artistically embroidered
       dresses for the women and cotton breeches for the men. Choctaws
       have never adorned their hair with feathers.
       The rich lands of the Choctaws in present-day Mississippi were
       so greatly coveted by nineteenth century Americans that most of
       the tribe was forcibly removed to what is now called Oklahoma.
       Oklahoma was chosen both because it was largely uninhabited and
       because several explorations of the territory had deemed the
       land barren and useless for any purpose. The truth, however, was
       that Oklahoma was so fertile a land that it was an Indian
       breadbasket. That is, it was used by Indians on all sides as an
       agricultural resource. Although many Choctaws suffered and died
       during removal on the infamous "Trail of Tears", those that
       survived built anew and successfully in Oklahoma, their
       agricultural genius intact.
       George Catlin, the famous nineteenth century Indian historian,
       described the Choctaw lands of southern Oklahoma in the 1840's
       this way: "...the ground was almost literally covered with
       vines, producing the greatest profusion of delicious
       grapes,...and hanging in such endless clusters... our progress
       was oftentimes completely arrested by hundreds of acres of small
       plum trees...every bush that was in sight was so loaded with the
       weight of its...fruit, that they were in many instances
       literally without leaves on their branches, and quite bent to
       the ground... and beds of wild currants, gooseberries, and
       (edible) prickly pear." (Many of the "wild" foods Anglo
       explorers encountered on their journeys were actually carefully
       cultivated by Indians.)
       Many of the Choctaw foods cooked at celebrations even today are
       vegetarian. Corn is so important to us it is considered divine.
       Our corn legend says that is was a gift from Hashtali, the Great
       Spirit. Corn was given in gratitude because Choctaws had fed the
       daughter of the Great Spirit when she was hungry. (Hashtali is
       literally "Noon Day Sun". Choctaws believe the Great Spirit
       resides within the sun, for it is the sun that allows the corn
       to grow!)
       Another Choctaw story describes the afterlife as a giant
       playground where all but murderers are allowed. What do Choctaws
       eat in "heaven"? Their sweetest treat, of course: melons, a
       never-ending supply.
       More than one tribe has creation legends which describe people
       as vegetarian, living in a kind of Garden of Eden. A Cherokee
       legend describes humans, plants, and animals as having lived in
       the beginning in "equality and mutual helpfulness". The needs of
       all were met without killing one another. When man became
       aggressive and ate some of the animals, the animals invented
       diseases to keep human population in check. The plants remained
       friendly, however, and offered themselves not only as food to
       man, but also as medicine, to combat the new diseases.
       More tribes were like the Choctaws than were different. Aztec,
       Mayan, and Zapotec children in olden times ate 100% vegetarian
       diets until at least the age of ten years old. The primary food
       was cereal, especially varieties of corn. Such a diet was
       believed to make the child strong and disease resistant. (The
       Spaniards were amazed to discover that these Indians had twice
       the life-span they did.) A totally vegetarian diet also insured
       that the children would retain a life-long love of grains, and
       thus, live a healthier life. Even today, the Indian healers of
       those tribes are likely to advise the sick to "return to the
       arms of Mother Corn" in order to get well. Such a return might
       include eating a lot of atole. (The easiest way to make atole is
       to simmer commercially produced masa harina corn flour with
       water. Then flavor it with chocolate or cinnamon, and sweeten to
       taste.) Atole is considered a sacred food.

       I disagree with the insinuation that human drinkers of cows'
       milk are less mature than human non-drinkers of cows' milk.
       Humans were not meant to drink non-humans' milk at any age.
       Also, the guy seems confused about what "pastoral" means.
       Otherwise not bad. The greatest horror is that so many
       "non-whites" (most of whom are not metabolically adapted to
       drinking milk) were nevertheless willing to force themselves
       (and worse, force "non-white" children) to drink it just for the
       sake of feeling "whiter".
