During the pandemic, plant-based meat consumption and media coverage exploded. Now, a host of trend pieces decry its demise. That shift is no organic accident.
Dead cow, from a local farm, fed local waste grains. Dead chicken, grown by my neighbor, allowed to eat grass feed would otherwise get burned. I’d eat eggs galore, but I’m allergic. As much seafood as I can handle because it’s plentiful around here. Overflow venison when I can because it absolutely has to die whether it’s eaten or not.
Also, the best local produce money can buy, fertilized by their manure. Yes, I eat vegetables that are grown with the help of animal shit. Lovely, smelly, animal shit.
Oh I know exactly what I’m shoving down my throat, and have no weird queasy fear about talking about where it came from or what it took to get there. More importantly, I know what I’m eating is good for me and good for the environment.
Excuse you? This was in response to “it’s easy to conclude what you’re shoving down your throat”. What exactly should a person respond in that case? I gave you the facts, precisely.
I feel the moral case for veganism colors every other argument, so I cut that one out at the pass.
Also, true colors showed; first ad hominem came out. Reported and blocked

There we have this “good-faith” conversation. Idiot.

Yeah, like I started your bullshit. I called it out and you freaked out. Have a nice life (or not, I don’t care).
