#117. New Year's Resolution: No Whey!


I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one. Brought it up to me like room service--hold the double cheese. Yes, my New Year's Resolution, late as it is, is to cut out most of the dairy from my diet. Not the first time either. Heavily influenced by the 1980s anarcho-punk movement I became a vegetarian when I was 15, and vegan at 17. Somehow overdosing on fried cheese seemed like the easiest protein fix during my twenties, an unstable decade of bike messengering, treeplanting, boxing in Thailand, backpacking throughout South East Asian and a few years in Prague. Good bye smazeny syr. Darn you Colin Campbell!
