She claimed lots of fruits and veggies fell from the trees, vines, etc. Of course she was so malnourished that she made Kate Moss look like Rosie O'Donnell.

They are all wrong. The problem with eating beef is that a few cows can take up a whole field. Just think of all the soybean that could have been grown on that field. You can feed a lot more people with tofu than beef. Seriously, mapo dofu (spicy tofu) is good with eggs and rice and it's very very cheap. Asian people don't eat a lot of meat, not for health reasons although there are a lot of vegetarians here (devout Buddhists are vegetarians) but mainly because beef is so expensive here: it has to be imported from the U.S., Australia or New Zealand. Then there's the fear of mad cow disease. Seriously, people in Taiwan like to eat "beef noodles" but it's really just noodles in a beef flavoured gravy. Most people here don't even realise that "hamburger" means "ground beef" because a lot of restaurants substitute pork for beef for their burgers. I guess some foreigners complained because suddenly they are being refered to as "pork burgers". LOL.
Anyway, look, I'm sorry if you got offended when I said that you said you weren't "attracted to 'kids'". But you can do the math yourself: if your husband's grandmother were 52 just like you then that would make your husband about 12. I suppose it would be okay if your husband's *mother* were 52 because then he'd be about 32 but if you've known him for more than a decade then it would still have made you a cougar. LOL.

No, what I mean, is the same thing someone else in this thread said. A chick has a kid when she's 15, kid might also have a kid as a teen, so some grandmothers (Loretta Lynn, for one) were relatively really young grandmas. Sadly, that's the case in my own family many times.

I think the main reason for the switch is that many people who have taken up vegetarianism in recent years now have weakened immune systems. Also, soy allergy is one of the most common food allergies. I read that Tyler Florence has some great recipes for tofu.

Fine. So assuming your husband is also 52, his grandmother could be 82. Maybe your husband looks young for his age so we could shave off a few years from that estimate but it still doesn't change the fact that his grandmother probably wouldn't still be using tampons. Nor would his mother be likely to at 67.

Um...the tampon thing doesn't apply to me in my situation, but I only wanted to point out that it *can* happen. More and more each year, sad to say.
Hubby is 51, and his Polish-born grandmother died before he was born. My grandma will be 93 in March. So no, it doesn't apply to us, but it applies to some *others*
The original comment from someone (I forget who) was that a tampon-using granny *is* possible - not that it was common. Further, that I *am* old enough to have been a granny, yet still use them - even without having been a teenage mother myself.

I'm sorry to hear about your husband's grandmother. Congratulations to your own grandmother. Do you realise that if you soon do become a grandmother then she'll be a great great grandmother? That's, well, great, isn't it?
Anyway, the point is that you told your husband that buying a tampon is proof that he gets laid and someone objected saying that it could be for his sister, mother or grandmother and I said, basically, no, not really, at least not in the case of grandma and probably not for mama either for that matter. Doesn't mean that somebody couldn't be a grandma and still have menstrual periods. Hell, if my wife's daughter were to get pregnant then I'd be married to a grandma and yet she'd probably still continue to have menstruation. But that's not the point: he should be waving those tampons around when he buys them because nobody is going to think he's buying them for a parent or grandparent.
Anyway, I think you get that. For some reason you're just being stubborn. It's kind of insulting really because I never disputed the fact that a woman could be a grandmother at forty (which is how old my wife is) and I know women still commonly have menstruation at that age. So let's just drop it.

She's already a great-great-*great* grandma! I told ya, some of my family started young, and so did their children.

It must just be that I wasn't getting where you were coming from. Looked like you were saying nobody would assume the tampons were for the daughter or wife, but maybe that was the other person.
But I think we agree nobody would think they were for *him*.

*snip* Um, genital herpes is a *usually* different type (herpes simplex virus II) than the one that causes cold sores (HSV II). Though you can have genital herpes from HSV I, that's quite atypical.
Hubby gets cold sores when he's really nervous or stressed; I assure you he doesn't have any sores anyplace else :-)
As for Kelly, I'm also sure being chased by paparazzi when you're just a kid is stressful as hell. Not to mention being raised by a drug-addicted head case like Ozzy. (I love his music, but let's face it - he's a train wreck) None of this usually leads to a healthy lifestyle...

Then you'd have to pass up a lot of people, because cold sores are very, very common. Little kids, the elderly, *anyone* can pick that up.
