It’s also interesting because some of those questions aren’t necessarily fair–some people who are socially conscious chose to be vegan or vegetarian and look down on others who aren’t not because of the healthy food, but because of social inequities, poverty, and global warming. Is it really a sign of a mental illness that we ask others to make food choices that will empower others and help end global food shortage?

I do think, though, that most of the questions are very similar to the sort of issues that people with OCD deal with (being one myself)–if healthy food becomes an obtrusive part of your life, what do you do?
