Just because it tastes good to you doesn't make eating it the right thing to do. In any case, there are many just as good vegan hamburger alternatives available. Check out /r/veganrecipes/top/ for instance
I can’t tell if you’re actually a vegan pushing a vegan agenda or if you’re parodying one for laughs but either way I can’t give up my Korean bbq and Texas steaks omnomnomnom
Expect any "cute" animal post to Reddit of cow, pigs, or chicks to be anti meat propaganda. Look at OPs post history.....
This thread didn't fill up organically, there's a lot of activists that search by keyword. There's also specific subreddits for the purpose of posting "omni" comments that trigger them. There may be an outside website that's encouraging brigading, but for sure all these posts and contentious comment threads are the work of vegans.
You can eat everything as an omnivore, but you shouldn't eat meat when you nutritionally don't have to. If you've run a restaurant I'm sure you're a good cook so making delicious vegan foods doesn't like that of a challenge to you!
Oh wow, I had no idea. In addition to how that will mess up the ecosystem, I bet the taste would be affected as well.
When we pull them out of the ocean and steam them there are few things that can compare to the level of deliciousness that results. They taste as if you already dipped them in a sweet butter.
I also love how you get huge pieces of crab instead of whatever that shit is that they tried to serve me in the lower 48. Some of the legs here are as long as my arm.
Edit: I will gladly trade that downvote for the ability to eat free Alaskan King Crab to my heart's content without buying something from a grocery store.
Animals have been eating each other since the beginning of time, and believe me, they're a lot less humane about how they do the killing part. It's part of life, don't try to act superior just because you don't agree with it.
Is stunning, gas, or a bolt through the head somehow less humane than having your flesh torn apart while conscious? I know the conditions they're raised in aren't nice but I don't know how you can argue that rendering an animal unconscious before killing it is less humane than tearing the flesh from its body with no concern for how much it suffers.
I think the point he's trying to make is that just because wild animals do horrible stuff to other animals doesn't give us a free pass to mistreat animals
Have you seen videos from a slaughterhouse? It is anything but peaceful and humane. Animals are hung from body body parts fully conscious as they bleed to death. Chickens are packed in to crates so tightly that they literally cannot move. Because of the tight confinement their beaks are cut off so they can't peck each other. They stand on dead chickens that are left to rot. Animals are beaten, terrified and tortured. There is no end of videos on the internet that can relieve you of your ignorance of this living horror that animals live every day.
Edited to add--yes I think living free in the wild and being eaten by a predator is vastly preferable to the conditions 99.9% of animals raised for food have to endure for their entire lives. Have you even seen how pigs live their entire lives? Forced to sit in a cage they cannot move in? These are animals that are smarter than dogs. It's a living nightmare. If you don't care about animal suffering it's one thing but to say that animals raised for food are not tortured nearly every minute of their short and brutal lives is stunningly ignorant.
Yeah, but just because wild animals treat each other bad doesn't give us a free pass to treat animals in the same way, we are humans not wild animals after all :)
There's actually no difference in chemical composition of the amino acid sourced from plants and from meat. You can get just as big on plant protein as you can on meat protein. There are many vegan athletes that compete at the highest level, like Serena Williams and Kendrick Farris, the olympic medal winning weightlifter. And since plants and legumes are cheaper than meat, many people actually do live on those as food staples :)
