Hi Pied Piper

You say,

"Your point about protien storage is correct, but vegetables also contain protien and an excess of vegitable derived protien would be excreted after breackdown into ammino-acids in just the same way as animal."

I say,

This isn't quite right. The body handles animal protein differently. It also handles cooked food differently than it does raw. The fats break down into trans-fatty acids which create blockages in the arteries. Veggies don't do this.
