I am ok with quinoa thats high in protein .. the wife is always saying that meat eaters worry way too much about where vegetarians get their protein from .. As she's a life long veggie I don't like to question her wisdom .. I have only been veggie about 25 years .. would rather eat my own arm alive than a dead animal !! But the wife again says that not everyone could live on a veggie diet ... some folk need fish or flesh to survive .. where as she and I need vegetables
