Kind of sad to see that the people whose personality consists of being shitty to vegetarians have migrated to Bluesky. I see meat posts. I just skip them. Some folks can't do that with veggie posts. They need to come tell us how much they like bacon. Bitchin.

Wow, that's tough. I'm sorry to hear that. What health issue is that, if I may ask?

Vegan tastes great.

A dish of homemade vegetarian mujadarah or blackeyed peas with cornbread or pasta e ceci is even better and super cheap. But cooking and eating legumes as a main protein source is a learning curve for most USians used to meat, so it's nice to have these choices.

I've seen people spouting the "good for the environment" statistics for years, but I haven't seen anybody present a practical plan for getting from here to there. Just wondering if you have.

Do your own research. It’s not that hard. Bottom line: it‘s international scientific consensus that plant-based food production is VASTLY more sustainable and efficient than animal agriculture.

If you're genuinely interested you can find this information on the internet. These things don't happen overnight so gradual movement will happen.

What do cows eat? Think there's any chance that the grain fed to the beef cow was treated with glycophosphates?

The vast majority of crops are used to feed animals in mass meat production. Animals are pumped full of antibiotics, growth hormones etc. which is bad enough aside from them being tortured and killed in gas chambers just because you're too ignorant to choose the plant based option.

Lmao. Because animal products aren't pumped full of antibiotics and growth hormones?

You call yourself “woke” and that’s your argument to defend the world’s single largest system of organized violence?

1: Is there 'serious' vegan cuisine? 2: Humans are naturally omnivorous. 3: There's nothing worse than people who preach. I enjoy vegetarian food frequently, and I'm not a big fan of red meat. I just don't see the point of vegan hamburgers. The meat ones are crap too 😂

As opposed to screwworm beef?

Hmmm. Closing in on 40 years. I better go check to make sure I'm not about to die.

I’m sorry to hear about the issue with your son. It’s important to know that there are simple tricks to maximize iron absorption on a vegan diet. Overall, balanced vegan diets yield significantly better health outcomes than omnivorous diets.

No he definitely wasn't anaemic before as he'd been having blood tests. It often happens after years of particularly living vegan.

Both will play their part.

And also work on the mycotoxin problem.

Spicy black bean burgers!

We have excellent meatless options here in FR. Patties, hot dogs, even ground meatless for tacos. All fantastic. I never used meat substitutes, prefering to just cook meals that are fine without meat. However, eating my first meatless hotdog & hamburger was pretty awesome.

That's so cool. You saw a post from a vegan group targeted towards vegans and you came here to tell them that you prefer meat. Fucking wicked. Epic. Keep going, champ.

You are defending the world’s single largest system of organized violence. There is not the slightest need for animal exploitation in modern societies. And many people doing the wrong thing doesn’t make it right.

Corporations who stand to lose market share to plant based proteins will always see the transition as an existential threat and would rather push vegans underground than adapt themselves

Please what? Please don‘t stand up for animals that are needlessly exploited and slaughtered?

Nah, that stuff is pretty gross. There's a few good products. Rather just use more veggies and things like beans instead. It's also heavily processed.
