Title: Absolutely Apalling!
Product review: I'm a new teen vegetarian who wanted to read this book for more information. I was appalled at the way it treated vegetarianism--like just another diet to help you slim down! It hardly mentioned environmental, ethical, or moral reasons for becoming a vegetarian. According to the book, "Just follow Dr. Salter's plan and enjoy the healthier, slimmer you that will emerge." This is sending completely the wrong message to teens. Vegetarianism is not a just a diet--it is a whole new lifestyle. I definetly do not recommend this book. Their are many others that offer information on ALL aspects of vegetarianism, and in a less condescending way. I can just say that I'm glad I got this book at the library instead of wasting any money on it.
