Of all the things I could preoccupy my mind with this seems like a particularly egregious waste of time

It’s beacuass of the sheer efficiency of factory farming. If you want a sense of the scale look at a chicken slaughterhouse video

>>16129799
practice gratitude.

That means pork and beef were quite cheap my friend. How times change imagine being a peasant and enjoying daily wagoo beef or pork belly with turnips

>>16129891
brap me, gratitude cuck

>>16129892
Lobsters and crabs used to be extremely cheap to the point slaves and prisoners would complain they want to eat something other than that

>>16129892
Meat in general was scarce.
Even during and shortly after ww2 my dad as a kid didn't eat beef for at all for years because it was all sent for soldier rations and such. He ate wild or canned turkey, and fresh fish.

>>16129917
Mid 20th century scarcity of meat due to war wasn't the general rule of history for the 300-400 years prior to that.

>>16129917
This was not a bad thing, overconsumption of meat is very unhealthy. We couldn't afford to do it for most of our history and we were healthier for it

>>16129924
During the nepoleonic wars? Beef would have most certainly been extremely rare for the non rich or non soldier. Same with pork.

>>16129928
>overconsumption of meat is very unhealthy
Post the randomised control trials that demonstrate this.
What's that? The only evidence you have is are epidemiological studies which cannot account for confounding variables?

Remember when lobster was cheap?
Yep we used to farm those sea chickens for days on,end. Feed me to the poor. But nothing Amore

>>16129934
LOL why? Because your feelings tell you it must have been rare?

>>16129946
That report was a whole lot of nothing.
And it's only specific to British agriculture.

We're you trying to make a big intellectual flex or something?

>>16129936
English please

>>16129916
Also caviar. It would be offered as a free salty snack in bars like peanuts today

>>16129968
I think the russians made it artificially scarce on purpose.

>>16129989
I'm suspecting (((them)))

What's the German word for "longing for a timeline that has never existed, and will never exist."?

>>16130273
This isn't /v/

>>16130281
"judenfrei" i believe it was

>>16130010
This was exciting, moar pls

>>16129784
Napoleon's chicken was way better for you. Way less chemicals and pesticides, better feed, no vaccines or any drugs pumped into the meat and marrow, etc

>>16129784
>half an hour’s wages.
>4.99
I was laughing at this until I remembered the noisy kid they hired to the janitorial staff, yeah it might be half his hourly wage, now I'm laughing harder.

>>16129957
What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
No-one cares if smelly continentals went without meat. The British master race never stopped dining on beef.

>>16129799
and yet you took the time to post in this thread

6 minutes, for me

>>16130273
My dad was 5 during ww2. I'm 24.

>>16130308
lol

>>16129784
And healthy shit like oats, barley, ect were cheaper than dirt practically.

>>16129784
>not organic
Enjoy bowel cancer.

>>16129784
Not only that, I think about how you can go to shoprite or whatever, come out with vegetables from Mexico, Ecuador, Italy, India and China for like $10.

>>16129928
>people were healthier during periods of food scarcity
this is your brain on veggies

>>16130254
I want this more than anything in the world

>>16129784
half hour? thats 8 minutes a 45 seconds

>>16130010
time machine, gas powered atvs.

>Napoleon’s diet consisted mostly of roast chicken
A seething manlet obsessed with roto chicken, some things just never change..

>>16129784
Have you ever seen the video of that enormous chicken coming out of the coop? THAT used to be the farm standard chicken anon, it fell out of favour BECAUSE it was so expensive.

>>16130977
He had you when he was 56?

>>16129784
Imagine telling a medieval serf about internet porn

a medieval serf had teen poon on demand, retard

>>16133056
God I wish I was a serf

>>16129820
It's that, but it's also because those chickens are a loss leader. Meaning that they sell them at either a slim profit margin or at a loss in order to get people in the store and to upsell other things like sides and shit. It's pretty interesting.

>>16129799

>>16129784
chickens only take like 7 weeks to grow and you can raise them in dirt. they aren't a luxury item

>>16129784
have some costco op

>>16130254
You should write moar /ck/-writefag

>>16129799
Yeah, I am surprised you could go a whole 5 seconds wirhout fantasizing about cock.

>>16133499
>-he types as he thinks about cock.

>>16129784
where the hell do you live that rotisserie is 5 dollars? its like 14 bucks where i am.

>>16133455
>tfw no chicken handler gf

>>16129784
>Chicken used to be considered a luxury meat.
Don't worry, it will be again within your life time.

>>16133551
Trust me you don't want to date anybody that works in the kitchen or around seafood all day. It gets in their skin and the novelty of a greasy smelling girl wears off very quickly.
>>16133549
Where the fuck do you live where it's $14? Alaska?

>>16133455
jesus christ her head must be caked in sweat and grease working in front of ovens like that all day

>half an hours wages
How fucking poor are you

>>16129916
>>16130269
Fishery depletion is genuinely depressing and I hope some eggheads work out an ecological solution soon. Doesn’t help that imperialism and currently shit governments fucked over countries like the Philippines and made their poverty addled citizens do shit like dynamite fish just to make ends meet

>>16129916
yea, that's also back when people knew shellfish was fucking disgusting sea bugs and people didn't want to eat it

>>16129784
We won't have to tell them. Meat will soon be a luxury again if vegans and the government/inflation get their way.

>>16133687
imagine the smell

>>16130254
>Uses time travel to be racist
I can't say I'm surprised but I was entertained.

>>16134707
It has nothing to do with vegans lmao, it's simply an unsustainable industry

>>16134707
You mean the government that has been subsidising the industry with tax dollars for decades?

>>16134303
>eggheads
>fix our fat wants please science
Also you
>fuck covid vaccines are a conspiracy
never change

You're leaving out the part where it was ground whole into a paste first then served unseasoned

>not wanting a roasted chicken smelling gf
ngmi

>>16134848
Trust me, it's not just roasted chicken. Unless the place she works specializes in rotisserie chicken, she's probably gonna be on other stations as well. Like I said it gets old fast.

>>16134798
>t. Hugh hefner nephew

>>16134753
So?

>>16129924
It definitely happened enough though.
During the siege of Paris it didn't take them long to start eating dog, cat, rat and the animals in the zoo

>>16134288
you live in Geneva?

>>16133687
imagine licking it haha

>>16129799

>>16133579
>Open gf's legs
>Pussy smells like a freshly roasted barbecue rotisserie chicken
Honestly I'd prefer it to the way vaginas actually smell. Even the cleanest vaginas still have that distinct pussy smell to them. Some guys like it, I don't.

>>16138499
>tfw you will never suck the sweat out of a rotisserie girl's hair
Why even live

>>16129784
Meanwhile wings are 1$ per.

I didn't think it was possible to make consuming vodka and caviar look trashy. Thanks for showing me.
