From what I noticed the guys who complain that vegetarians/vegans force their diet too much are like Christians who cry about being persecuted. Your meaty diet is plastered all over everywhere and shoved in everybody's face 24/7, but then if you see someone who eats differently than you do you take it as a personal attack and see it as some outsider criticizing your way of life and making you feel bad, when really it's just some guy saying "I eat this stuff instead"

Then you would be an exception, not the rule. (That is, if you're even telling the truth, which I doubt). I've known more vegans/vegetarians with anemia than I can shake a stick at. I, myself, am anemic, because I don't eat enough meat (meat's too expensive where I live, so I only eat it about 3 times a week).

It's possible that we have a condition that prevents us from absorbing the heme form of iron. But most people if they know about basic nutrition, have no problem getting the proper nutrients on a vegan diet. And I have a big feeling you're lying about knowing vegans and vegetarians with anemia. How many people do you ask if they're anemic? Maybe you should eat some more kale.

phytic acid and phytase, which is present in many whole grains can hinder your body's ability to absorb zinc, iron, calcium, and magnesium. You can lessen this effect by soaking or sprouting your grains or making bread from fermented grains (sourdough). The later being the best way to neutralize phytic acid. Also if you are getting way too much calcium you may be interfering with you ability to absorb other minerals and vitamins such as iron. That doesn't mean cut out calcium, it just means if you are eating WAY over you recommended amount that you should reduce it a little.

I don't get it. Why are most discussions on either side of the extreme? Is there no balance in your diet? You might eat meat but don't you eat veggies and vice-versa? Our eating preferences have always been based off the land but ever since they introduced the fake dead foods, our view on food itself has changed mentally. Our bodies aren't eating things our bodies are normally meant to eat. That's how people get fat, straight up empty carbs. The planting of greens, herding and raising of animals for food has always been a part of human lifestyle. It's all balance people... If you believe in God, God would want people to eat off the land. Which is mostly, fruits, veggies, AND meat!

As refreshing as it is to have a meat eater who is not trying to portray me as a bleeding heart, it also feels like a stab in the chest because even the ones who are somewhat aware that what's happening is fucked up, just don't care to do anything about it. People's lives are too cushy, they don't know empathy because they've never suffered themselves, they'd rather push the reality away from them and ignore their role in it. As someone who has watched countless undercover investigations and knows the issues in depth, it makes me sick to my stomach how apathetic people are.

We are talking about the troubles of life. Animals kill and eat other animals. That's perfectly normal. Have you ever seen what bear does to a fish, a lion to a zebra, wolves to rabbits, or even a little housecat to birds and rodents? Compared to the animal kingdom we humans (most of us anyway--there are always some sick fucks out there) are angels.

Now then, it is possible thanks to modern technology to eat a healthy vegetarian diet...but that hinges upon long-distance refrigerated transport of foods from halfway around the world. There is nothing "natural" about that, and for many people its an impossibility. If you live somewhere like the USA or Canada or western Europe and have the luxury of a lot of money then you can walk into a supermarket and find whatever veggie you want any day of the year--and you need to do that if you want a balanced diet with no meat. But did you ever stop and think why there are tomatoes in the supermarket in the middle of winter? That may be "vegetarian" but it sure as hell isn't natural, or good for the environment. That tomato got there because it was grown on the other side of the world and then transported on smoke-belching ships and trucks just so you can eat it any time you want. You might be able to afford it, but not everyone has that kind of resources. Farming also creates a huge amount of environmental impact due to run-off of fertilizer and pesticides. It's no "better" than eating meat, it's simply different. Personally I would rather eat locally sourced food (consisting of both meat and vegetables) than depend on an unnatural diet that is only possible thanks to long-distance shipping and chemically aided farming. It's a lot more natural to get my winter nutrition from a locally-farmed pig and excess veggies that I bought in-season and then canned for use later than it is to insist upon 100% vegetarian.

I think "just plants" is a little unfair, since people can make hundreds of thousands of things out of plant foods. Pizza, hamburgers, nachos, sweets, you name it and there's an awesome plant-based version. The most mind-blowingly good pizza I've ever eaten was made using cashew puree for cheese. The diets of most of my veg friends are way more diverse than my own omnivore diet.

I think a lot of people kinda' get trapped in the bubble of the standard American diet, so don't venture out and try all the thousands of foods they've never had. But when you change your diet, and go vegetarian or vegan, you become more open to branching out since SAD no longer fits your lifestyle.

Of course you can be an omnivore and still eat things like pizza with cashew puree cheese, but I think most people tend to stay in their dietary box unless given a little push.

you moron, having the pigs in metal crates is safer, more productive, and more humane than having them not be in a crate

1. the crates are cleaned out daily, so parasite load are kept minimal to null
2. the farrowing crates that you often see mother pigs in when they give birth and wean baby piglets in in peta shit videos is not for amusement. Its to keep the baby piglets safe.

Mother pigs often roll over and crush the piglets, or they eat their young, yes they are cannibalistic, so keeping them separated from the young is more humane

3. By keeping the adult pigs separated, you avoid unwanted rivalries and deaths due to the pigs eating each other, just like the cannibalistic mothers adult pigs eat each other, even when they are fed a well balanced diet

>> No.4347960

>>4347916

Farrow crates are for increased profits, pure and simple. It being in the benefit of animals is simply an excuse factory farms throw around to try and gather sympathy. Plenty of farmers raise pigs on pasture without the use of farrowing crates, simply by constant monitoring of piglets and rescuing them if need be until they're slightly older and quick enough to avoid being crushed.

But having people monitor the situation costs money, and factory farms get more $$ by simply sticking sows in crates.

Plenty of states and countries have banned the use of gestation crates, and require animals to have enough room to move, turn, and stand, and have no issues with production.

Also, let's keep in mind that there's not much data for pigs in the wild crushing their babies to death. It's really a phenomenon with pigs bred for meat production, that are kept in confinement, artificially inseminated, and have shitty, unnatural lives. I wouldn't be in the least surprised if the mothers were crushing the piglets so they didn't have to put up with the same crap they do, haha.

Stop talking about things you don't know anything about, as if you do.

1. Most of our animal products (in the U.S. at least) come from factory farms where animals are tortured essentially their entire lives. On top of that, they are definitely not always killed "humanely". Do your research before you make claims like this, please. The amount of torture we put animals through for our convenience foods is NO WHERE NEAR anything found in nature.

2. Don't compare non-local vegan food to factory farmed non-local animal products. Just fucking don't. There are so many flaws with your thinking it makes me think you're actually just trolling. Yes, of course vegans should buy local if they want to be environmentally friendly, any dipshit knows that. But let me just make this short by saying your animal feed alone is shipped from other countries, like Brazil. I could go on for days about all the excess environmental damage animal agriculture causes as opposed to vegan agriculture, but I think I made my point right there. You can not fucking compare the two. And yes, locally raised animal products are definitely worse for the environment than locally raised vegetables (could actually even argue they're worse than non-local vegetables).

To only look at animals as living beings is sheer ignorance. We are part of a scientific food chain on this earth. We must eat other living things to live ourselves. Plants are alive. Animals are alive, Humans are alive, and we must all eat each other to keep our carbon-based bodies going. Living is killing, killing is eating, eating is living. You can choose what you're okay with killing and eating, but you're still going to have to kill something in order to live.

I wish I was able to do what they do in restaurants but in reverse.

That is, I'd love to go into one of these trendy vegan cafes and ask if they have a non-vegetarian option, or complain that there are no "carnetarian" or "omnivore" options on the menu.

I imagine they'd be a bit shittier to us than normal restaurants are to them when THEY ask for a veggie option.

This the anatomy of thrift. It is a video about using the meat of a big after it is butchered.

This is a video that details economizing the animal once it has been slaughtered: http://vimeo.com/39451071

and this one is on side butchery:
http://vimeo.com/32367993

This is food, raised well and loved but food for us. You can choose not to eat it, but the animals are well treated and they are nutritious. Food usually comes from places where the animals are not treated humanely and the nutrition and flavor of the meat suffers. It is a shame. Thankfully, more and more people are eating meat responsibly. It is catching on that food factories like Tyson suck, more people are aware of that they have a choice, maybe one day it will be economical for folks to have access to food from smaller farms that are dedicated to raising animals responsibly.

Vegetarians don't bother me so much. Most of them will just tell you at mealtime, to which it's no big deal. Good vegetarian meals aren't hard to make anyway.

It's the vegans who have the real attitude problems. I actually don't care about what a person does/doesn't eat, as it isn't my business, but a shitty attitude will get under my skin real fast. I once had a vegan tell me that I was a child-murdering, slave-owning rapist because I ate meat. It was more funny than offensive, but even so.
At least the "derogatory" terms they come up with for omnivores are fucking hilarious. Unfortunately they don't use "bloodmouth" anymore because no one was actually offended by it, so they use "carnist" now (not as funny, but still completely inoffensive).

the problem isn't that people eat meat, it's the practices in the meat industry that are the problem. stricter laws on food production is what would actually benefit everyone, there's nothing wrong with someone eating meat if that's what they choose. there's something wrong with the industries that frequently produce it, but the same could be said about not buying organic vegetables or companies like monsanto who are genetically engineering seeds and feeding people gmo crops.

>that there is literally nothing they can do to change our eating habits
>there is nothing they can do to prevent animals being slaughtered for food around the world
>there is nothing they can do to prevent us from enjoying the charred flesh of said animals

Anne Hathaway. Olivia Wilde. Jessica Chastain. Joaquin Phoenix, Bradd Pitt just to name a few. There are so many vegans and vegetarians in Hollywood who are considered sexy worldwide. Many stars even go veg when they need to lean out and buff up for a role, like Hugh Jackman did for Wolverine.

Though obviously whether you eat meat or not has absolutely nothing to do with what you look like.

I get what you're trying to say since I used to think the same way, but having been obsessed with the topic of food production and other related topics for several years now I don't even bother suggesting people buy their animal products from 'naturally raised' farms anymore. Veganism is the most realistic solution. I could write a book on why, but I'll leave it at that because I'm hungry and need to go eat.

eh i know for a fact that not eating meat is the a huge part of the reason i weigh 110 pounds and am not a landwhale. it's a lot easier to stuff your face like a monster when the food that you eat is low calorie.

Anyone just have the urge to eat a really rare or protected animal because it will piss someone off? I've always wanted to eat a penguin and turn its skin/fur/whatever into gloves. I also want to eat a dolphin.

it isn't a solution though it's essentially boycotting a problem. and like i said unless you are buying all organic or growing your food it's not like you aren't part of a totally different problem.

and it still comes down to a matter of personal choice, if someone wants to eat an animal that's entirely their business. and shoving pictures of tortured/dead animals in their face isn't going to make them change their mind, it's no different that pro-lifers shoving pictures of dead babies at everyone...that doesn't stop abortion, or change the fact that in some cases it makes sense. it's tasteless and stupid

>That doesn't stop me from getting hit on by hot guys though so I guess I don't look too bad.

Sure, but remember this isn't tumblr. Until, you prove yourself, we will all simply assume you have ugly pale, pockmarked skin, a hunched back, and very thin hair, not to mention an ugly horse face.

Vegetarians are okay.
Vegans are not.

How can you tell if someone is a vegan?

Would be nice, but at least in America that will never happen. National Cattlemen's Association and other meat organizations make sure that the government continues to subsidize the industry.
