Having spent over a year in that part of the world, mostly India in the 70's I became vegetarian, mostly as a survival tool. Ever seen semi-outdoor butcher shop in Kabul would switch Colonel Saunders Vegan. I told my nieces and nephews i would give them 5.00 for any obese person found on CNN or whatever footage taken in the region. They had to be honest. Never paid one time. Are they starving? I was asked. No they just don't eat as a national pastime. Much of their diet is rice, beans, fruit, and veggies. most bread is whole grain. Malnutrition is a reality there as here, but we are the fattest people on the planet. I got back to the states, Miami where I lived, but did not crave a big mac. Soon learned that being veg was kinda hip, and impressed the hippie chicks, so I stayed with it, Been 40 years and I truly believe that Soy products are better protein than animal meat. You cant get fat on Brown rice, tofu, veggies, beans, and fruit. Drink plenty water. My favorite is Lundberg organic brown basmati rice.

But hey, if Jeff helps some out of balance person make a connection, or see the light regarding food consumption, then it has some redeeming value. And who knows, maybe it's a funny read?

He is a funny guy and just from his screen persona, he seems like a good person also. But this seems outwardly like a crass attempt to make money. No thank you.

It's a great show. But I think he can be just as funny being a little lighter. I'm glad he's getting healthier and thinking about what's going into his body. Cheryl,

I love Jeff in Curb Your Enthusiasm too. It’s a great show. But I think he can be just as funny being a little lighter. I’m glad he’s getting healthier and thinking about what’s going into his body.

Getting back to basic foods seems to be a new idea for our culture, how odd. It works though, both for emotional and physical well being.
