why do people eat this shit

[Anonymous No.15345257]

i bought a packet because it got shilled so much here. it tastes like ground rubber with beef flavoring, then i tried making a pasta sauce to help ot along, and it tasted like somebody ground up a bunch of unaged gristle and overcooked it. any dish with this that makes it edible would be better without meat.

The terms 'food chain' and 'food web' refer to a natural ecological system whereby producers in a specific habitat are eaten by consumers in that same habitat. The term 'circle of life' has no scientific meaning at all. In neither case do the terms refer to the human consumption of animals, since humans do not exist as consumers in a natural ecological system where cows, pigs, cats, dogs, fish and other food animals are producers.
The only use of the terms 'food chain' or 'circle of life' in the context of human food choices is to legitimize the slaughter of sentient individuals by calling that slaughter a necessary and natural part of human life, which means the apex predator justification for eating animals is a failure on two fronts. First, the terms themselves either do not apply to the ecological relationship we have with animals or they have no meaning at all. Second, we do not need to eat animals in order to survive, so the underlying moral imperative of 'might makes right' is not ethically defensible. By analogy, a bank robber might claim to be at the top of the corporate ladder since he had the ability to take what belonged to others and chose to do so.

Not necessarily. Ok yeah, there are a lot of shills and reality denying europoids pretending this tastes like meat--I agree with that

But another thing to consider is that a lot of people can't actually taste meat. Consider that the main component of meat taste is umami.
soy sauce, gochujjang, etc are high in umami, moreso than meat. This is why they taste so addicting and "meaty".

But a lot of people actually CAN'T TASTE GLUTAMATE. I have talked to, and read online accounts from a couple dozen people who literally can't taste these things. They think gochujang tastes like nothing. They think that MSG tastes like salt. These people literally can't taste glutamate, and thus cannot taste meat.
