Vegetables.

They cost like 10 dollars for a carrot or an eggplant, and most of the time they're not even good for you. Eskimos never ate vegetables and they're the healthiest people in the world. Everyone I know who eats vegetables unironically is like 90 pounds and has no energy.

>organic
Doesn't exist. Pink pigs, orange carrots and red tomatoes are not natural just because you used inferior pesticides on it. Norman Borlaug saved OVER A BILLION FUCKING LIVES FROM STARVATION by developing GM crops. And hippies want them banned because muh elitism. Yes, I am fucking enraged.

>vegetarian
No you're not. Barely exists. There are ~140 ants in a jar of peanut butter. There are several flies in a jar of jam. The wheat thresher takes up field voles, mice and rabbits into the hopper and they're shredded to death alongside the wheat. Eat breakfast cereal? You're not a vegetarian. Wheat is murder! :^)

>vegan
Haha, nope. Doesn't exist. Also, if you're vegan, don't breed. You'll murder your baby due to a lack of vitamin A and B12. There isn't a vegan source of B12. You can eat your own shit if you'd like, but it's still an animal product.

Pesticides are generally nerve toxins and in some regions with especially heavy use the links to mental retardation in humans are undeniable at this point ...

B12 is produced in the intestinal bacteria.

>Wheat is murder
If plants are so important, why don't you just avoid eating them and instead eat animals? Why don't you save the wheat crops instead of kids in Africa? Do you see how illogical this stance is? Plants are not sentient, and that is the issue. They do not have to brain to tell them that I'm being hurt. If they do not know, then it would be like trying to avoid punching walls because you might cause them pain.

What

I get about 3000% of the daily value for vitamin A every day. The only animal food that comes close to the vitamin A content of plants is liver, and even then you're getting the retinol form which is toxic in large amounts

What kills more animals: wheat farming, or animal farming (that also includes wheat farming to feed the animals)?

It's true tho

when consumed, milk forms long tendrils that tap into your nervous system and force you to eat 2 sandwiches for lunch and tricks you into having seconds on dessert.
the milk victim is only vaguely conscious while this is happening and can only muster a faint protest as the white devil asks for an extra large combo meal with a chocolate shake
