not to urge people to be vegan.
This particular board, the Eating for IBS diet board, IS limited to dietary discussions that follow the rules of the diet.
I realize that everyone is different, people will cheat, and some people will tolerate cheating to some degree. But the point of board is to get people stable, and no one can do that if they don't start by avoiding all the potential triggers to get a baseline. Cheating negates that very opportunity.
There are NO recipes on this site that include red meat. That would never be allowed.
This board can be a great way for someone who is stable to learn how to expand their options, and for people who are exceptions to the rule to learn from each other. But again, that is assuming a baseline of stability, and no one will get there if they try run before they can walk.
I love your posts, and Syl's, and Little Minnie's, but because the boards seem to spiraling a bit out of control around this issue I am going to continue to lock posts that veer off topic, even if they are interesting or have other merits.
Things will just have to be a bit black and white on the board for a while before we can get back to having shades of gray.
XOXO
