Enrico would probably be sneaking ribs to those poor vegan imposed kids.

 

[Enrico Brandizzi]

I was the one who promoted the new law !

 

[Bob Ivey]

And we support you in that effort Enrico. I have a niece who is trying to go Vegan and she is pregnant and on more than one occasion I have seen her eating ice cream and other things that are not vegan. I don't think she will last long as a vegan.

Agreed...and Enrico could potentially make big money running a black market operation for his BBQ meats!

After they tasted Enrico's BBQ they would not have a chance of going vegan. No way.

...Children who became malnourished and later hospitalized after being fed a vegan diet...

it's not the vegan diet to blame, it's the parents that aren't getting enough protein and the necessary nutrients in their kids diet.
they are getting it wrong.

the American Dietetic Association said:
It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. Well-planned vegetarian diets are appropriate for individuals during all stages of the lifecycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence, and for athletes.
