Meat and the vegetarian diet—Importance of raw food.
Dr. Göbbels asked whether a pound of potatoes had the same nutritive value as a pound of meat. The Fuehrer replied: As far as we know, the food of the soldiers of ancient Rome consisted principally of fruit and cereals. The Roman soldier had a horror of meat, and meat, apparently, was included in the normal rations only when the difficulty of obtaining other supplies made it inevitable.
One has only to keep one’s eyes open to notice what an extraordinary antipathy young children have to meat. Those who adopt a vegetarian diet must remember that it is in their raw state that vegetables have their greatest nutritive value. Our children to-day are much healthier than those of the Imperial and Weimar Republic periods because mothers now realise that they contribute far more to the health of their children if they give them raw vegetables and roots to chew than if they give them boiled milk.
One reply on “Uncle Adolf’s table talk, 123”
Listen to Alex Linder’s audio of some passages of The Fame of a Dead Man’s Deeds: An Up-Close Portrait of White Nationalist William Pierce. This includes a revealing passage of Hitler’s “lightning bolt” after listening Rienzi, even before the First World War.
