let's do this again

My point was serious, but I put it in a joking way. If you don’t eat beef and pork, you pretty much don’t eat meat. Fish is not meat, it's fish. And everyone knows chicken (soup) is good for colds.

CNN.com - Health - Chicken soup is medicine, U.S. scientists confirm - October 17, 2000

I didnt know beef and pork are the only things that qualify? I know they are the majority.

I eat fish, chicken, turkey, lamb, venison, eggs, dairy, duck and probably a couple more.. do they count?

They count to a vegan, but as far as colds are concerned, beef and pork have the most immunosuppressive ingredients. Also milk. Drink much?

 

[vg4030]

Average I guess. Bowl of cereal a day... 2-3 cups of tea...
However the type I drink has no growth hormones

tell a chef to stop eating meat and he will tell you to fuck off, not that i'm against vegitarianism i'm not, i just like to enjoy a traditional family sunday roast dinner

I'm allergic to fish, I can't eat them. I'm also allergic to mushrooms, some nuts and a few other things probably. I was also allergic to milk (I've heard that many people are).

I also almost don't eat pork and beef (ok only once a month or so in mcdonalds or as an addition to a pizza).
However I eat chicken (from my granpa's farm) often. I love chicken.
Right now I could give up any meat except chicken as I don't like beef and pork anyway (and I don't think I've ever tried any other meat).
It's just that they throw that shit to most meals.

Eating meat is not making me sick. Thats what i say.

 

[Duke]

I like how you consequently draw parallels between simply eating meat and supporting the bio-industry.

Very mature.

 

[DPG iz all I C]

Why can you not accept people enjoy eating meat (no homo) ?

haven't read any posts but i'll just say this:

as much as drunk driving is socially uncacceptable, i just know too many people who that hasn't stopped them from doing it. i think everyone i know who has a driver's license and has a car has done it at least once (except for me cause i'm such a good person!).

i highly doubt people will stop eating meat. has been happening ever since the human existed. we need meat and the nutrients it contains, not all the fake shit vegans eat and that don't work as well as thereal nutrients.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

I ate a chicken because it was preaching about religion.

Was I wrong?

 

[Chronic]

We are not carnivores, we are omnivores.

Animals that need meat:

What makes you think we need meat?

There's nothing fake about the shit vegans eat. The fake vegan shit you're probably referring to are meat-replacements which are there to make things easier. Not really the way to go. What isn't real about the nutrients of legumes and beans? You should also consider your local cuisine. I'm sure you've visited speciality stores where you barely recongized any of the ingredients. Non-meat dishes only seem like an alternative because you're not used to anything else. It's the same with milk. There's coconut milk, soy milk, rice milk, hemp milk, nut milk, almond milk but cow milk is the choice while everything else is weird.

Why do people equate vegetarianism and veganism with vegetables? The fact that's it's an -ism gives the impression that it's an alternative. You have two options: get everything you need OR get everything you need + meat. Either both get a fancy name or meat gets one, since it's the only option that contains a luxury. "Meat eater" is the term to use now and it makes anyone using it seem like they're on the offense. Just because it's all you've known your entire life and just because most people around you eat meat doesn't mean it's the choice.

But alright say we do need meat (we don't), do you need all the meat you're eating? How about setting yourself a limit? Eat as much as you need but no more. Check where your meat is coming from. Buy meat that comes from places where they at least treat the animals with some respect. Buy free-range eggs and make sure they really are free-range. Check the products that you buy.

Everyone is probably buying some product that fucks with the planet but this issue isn't vague and it's not in the distance. It's one of the worst things going on but no one seems to care about it. At least people agree that human trafficking is bad. The knowledge is clear and readily available, the solutions are clear and readily available and a reasonable, logical and ethical person should at least recognize that with all the shit going is it's important to make sure that the animal products you buy come from places that you agree with.
