Telling the Whole Food Truth As a teacher of whole-food vegetarian cookery, I do
feel a certain sympathy with the ‘Men for Meat’ group. There is both confusion and just
plain, unappetizing cooking in this area, when a whole-food/ vegetable diet should and can
be highly nutritious and utterly delicious.
The words ‘whole-food’ and ‘vegetarian’ are not synonymous: vegetarians do not eat
any ‘fish, flesh or fowl’. Most eat dairy products. Those who don’t are called vegans. I tell
students not to turn vegetarian until they have become knowledgeable about nutrition, and
especially about protein. It’s very easy to become a sick vegetarian.
And a whole-food diet just consists of eating the whole of food, with nothing added,
and nothing taken away. For example, you eat whole-wheat flour, not white flour, which has
had had bleach added. In all, no refined carbohydrates are eaten and very fatty and additive-
laden foods are avoided and the stress is on fresh products of the best quality. And that’s all -
except you must then find recipes which are both healthy and delicious because you’ll have
to cook it all yourself. Very few ready-bought meals fulfill both requirements.
16. A whole food diet _____.
A. has a lot of nutrition B. is easy to eat
C. is added with flour. D. is often fresh
17. According to the writer, what is wrong with ready bought meals for vegetarians?
A. They can be cooked easily. B. They can’t be both healthy and delicious.
C. They contain some additives. D. They have best quality.
18. What is NOT true about the writer?
A. She supports the whole food. B. She is a teacher.
C. She dislikes ready bought meal D. She is a vegetarian.
19. The writer of this article feels a ‘certain sympathy’ for this group because _____.
A. She is a vegetarian. B. They don’t know much about vegetarian cooking
C. her students do not eat meat. D. “whole food” and “vegetarian” are not the same.
20. ‘Men for Meat’ is a _____.
 A. group of vegetarians B. cookery group
C. group that eat all kinds of food D. group of men
