Why are vegans constantly trying to recreate meat?

You cant chance the living conditions of cattle by not buying meet. Its a bit idiotic as well, cause many vegan products are as expensive as meat or more. Occasionally they even worsen the living conditions with their behavior. Just don't tell them, let them believe what they want.

You chose lentils because it's the most dense whole food source - sure, you can eat beans, and grains, and nuts, but it's still a similar volume with similar results.

OK those cans are 50% water which is counted in the nutrition. Its 1.75 cans of drained lentils, but dried lentils prepare into a more protein dense form and I think this is where the confusion is arising from. Its basically a bowl of lentils, I don't see why that's not doable, more so I don't understand why you're trying to get all 50g in one meal. Half a bowl of lentils would be 25g, and then whatever you have for breakfast lunch, snacks and elevensies would make up the rest. Still like I said I love lentils so I'd find it easy to live off them.

>> No.16464164

>>16464145
I'm not suggesting this is doable in one meal (though, two chicken thighs isn't even unreasonable in one meal). If I were making some canned lentil sloppa, which isn't exactly something I'd do these days but nonetheless, one can is definitely two meals worth for me. So, yes, five bigass bowls is what 50g lentil protein would feel like to me.

I like lentils, and beans, and grains, don't get me wrong - but living like that eating half a dozen times more fibre than anyone on a normal diet is not something I'd *ever* be able to sustain, and I definitely don't feel like I'm alone in that.

You're comparing dry lentils to fresh meat. That's not really an honest comparison. You can't eat dry lentils. You'd need about 2.75 cups of cooked lentils, which is about 550g, to equal the protein in a 250g steak. The protein quality of lentils is also lower than that of beef. Meat is usually around 25-30% protein. Lentils are not going to be able to match that because they're also full of starch and fiber.

I'm not saying lentils are bad. I just see people constantly trying to make the argument that lentils and beans are comparable to meat in protein content because they compare dry lentils/beans to fresh meat. Cooked lentils are about 10% protein. Cooked meat has almost triple that.

animals taste worse so i don't want to eat them. simple as. im also expressing laziness when i complain about the availability of vegan products. so what? you seem to be getting a kick out of feeling superior to me anyway so i don't seem to be making the world any worse by whining.

eww to flesh and blood. why aren't i allowed to be jealous of the enabled and easy dietary life meat-eaters have?

If you're jealous of meat eaters just eat meat. Most of the meat I eat is from stuff I kill (eventually plan to only eat what I kill in the near future) I don't think it's gross at all, even though I was brought up to believe it was gross. Why is something that is so beautiful alive suddenly become repulsive simply because it doesn't have life?

I don't really eat animals for taste, though I do find them delicious, I actually tend to eat vegetables more for taste pleasure. Even though they make me farty and shit too much. Animals I eat for nourishment and good health. If I could feel healthy without them believe me, I wouldn't eat them.

Idk. You think you are alternative but to me you seem pretty mainstream. A bloodless life terrified of flesh, death, and hard work, it's actually incredibly common.

Also, no one is superior to anyone. I have happily fed vegetarians before and I would definitely lay out a nice multi course meal for a vegan if I knew any irl who I could trust (even though I know they wouldn't do the same for me).

Definitely don't want people to be stagnant. A person with a garden will have extra produce to give to the hungry. A person with a laying flock will have extra eggs, a person with a cow will have extra milk, and a person with a hog will have extra meat.

it's consuming the animal that's disgusting to me. i think you understand that but your words almost seem to miss it. i mean i guess i agree that animal lives shouldn't go to waste but i don't think that just magically makes it okay to raise animals simply to kill them. but then someone would "what about..." the impacts of agriculture. again - appeal of food/taste are my main reasons for being vegan.
i don't actually know whether life is inherently beautiful or not. sounds edgy though.

>digestive problems possibly from fibrous vegetables
okay dude, i know you're trying to gross me, the easily grossed vegan, out.

>im mainstream
so what do you want from me? to become a hunter like you? that's only available to a small population.
even if i could - of course death terrifies me! but i think you go a bit far including hard work with those terrors. yeah i am lazy but it's out of efficiency. it's not efficient to focus so much effort on culinary or hunting endeavors if i don't have to. at least for me.

my instincts read your post and i think i've heard your closed-loop hunter's diet sentiments before from like... Joe Rogan or someone.
it seems like you're almost channeling Jesus when you say how generous you are providing people with your flesh and blood. kind of extraneous information. im not a monster, i agree that people should be fed.

im pretty sure it's not just "childish" to not want to consume animals in general even if i am childish. i'm not the person to have a vegan archetype of biblical magnitude to rival you, Omnivorous Jesus.

>hunter
I don't hunt. I actually kicked all the hunters off my property last year. Fuckers were trying to shoot coyotes and from what I hear from my neighbors they don't make any damn difference in the deer population anyways.
I also don't raise my livestock simply to kill them. They are just as important to me alive as dead. They provide sustainable fertility and pest control for my crops. However I can't just keep them all alive even if I didn't want to eat them. Too many males will cause unnecessary suffering.

I don't really want anything from you. From vegans in general I want to be accepted and not put on the same level as convenience obsessed jackasses who want no connection with their food whatsoever, but I also kind of accept that that's an unrealistic desire. People will always be bigoted towards their opposition. I know I can be that way too.

I guess I also think you shouldn't be scared of death. Living in fear of death is no different than living in fear of tomorrow. It's coming no matter how you feel about it. :)

Don't compare me to anyone. I've never been to church and I don't think it's appropriate to use labels to describe ones personal spirituality or lack thereof.

Nice to know you're thinking of things you haven't really thought of before. I try to do that as much as possible.

I do have to wonder... when did acquiring food become such a burden to humanity? Is it really better to sit around and think and tinker and mindlessly entertain oneself to distract from the inevitable? I definitely don't fit in that regard. I love food, its life's fuel.

okay, suspending disbelief in whether or not you're larping or not, i have made quite a few incorrect assumptions about your lifestyle.
it still seems like whatever lifestyle you live, with it's deep connection to food through livestock and crops, is a life available to a select few enabled by how much land you're able to own. also enabled by how much time you can set aside to maintain livestock because you don't have to pay bills by another time-sucking job. i commend you if you're doing both. that's admirable but still paints a hyper-idealistic archetype that isn't available to many for one reason or another.
of course we should all be doing 100% of our capabilities all the time but as you know and have expressed, it's not necessarily realistic.

>convenienced obsessed
mmm okay. i may be guilty of this. while i don't think it's the worst thing to be guilty of in the world, i could do better.
also... wow im starkly such a crappy person next to you, aren't i? someone might subconsciously start painting all vegans with my faults and all omnivores as ideal as you. im doing such a bad job representing vegans but it's all coincidence that things seem this way. im just doing me and you're doing you.

>Is it really better to sit around and think and tinker
i don't know man the olympics are going on and i don't think any of those athletes would be competent if they had to maintain crops and take care of their own livestock in a closed-loop system.
i'm fairly certain a lot of the innovations, conveniences, and discoveries present in modern life are the result of chores being delegated to others. i guess supermarkets are evil but kinda like... guess we can't have all this nice stuff that results from tinkering or training if we all lived seeking deep connection to our food.

Don't be so worried about what other people think of you. Even if the whole world hated you and you liked yourself that would be far better quality life than if the whole world loved you and you hated yourself. What the whole world thinks is irrelevant. Like I said before, even though I want to be accepted, I realize that want is unrealistic and not worth ruminating on.

I dunno man. Is all this stuff really that nice? Would our lives really be that horrible if the Olympics didn't exist and we were focusing more on the land and caring for ourselves and our community? I find that the internet is ok for talking to strangers, but conversations that are truly meaningful and memorable just seem to not actually happen on here. For example, while this conversation is nice and rare (especially on 4 chan) it will soon end and be completely forgotten in favor of flesh and blood interactions I have had with people.

I do understand I come from a place of privilaged with having access to land, but I do believe more people could live like me if they wanted to. I get the luxury of being quite frugal and I have found a small amount of land in the countryside can actually provide a lot of self sufficiency. I think its kind of fucked up that we have so much land (at least where I live in the United States) arable land, land where people could have homes instead of living on urban streets exposed to the elements, and we fuck them over. Meanwhile bill gates has something like almost 300,000 acres of farmland to play around on. Is that really fair? Can one man really manage all that land?

Anyways, I digress. All i can say is. Represent yourself, not your diet, not your beliefs, not your gender, ethnicity, race, religion, whatever. Represent yourself. All that other shit is just labels. It's irritating when people get so caught up in identity. It just divides us further.

it's the livestock you have that places you in the select few.

It's here to make it easier for meat addicts to quit supporting the meat industry if they don't want to harm animals anymore. Convenience and habit are a big reason why some people say it's too bothersome to go vegan or even vegetarian so if you can basically buy a halfway identical product it weakens that reason.

That's where the problem is. We wanna talk about petty shit like what small frys are doing and not look at the root cause of all the legitimately fucked up things going on. Great power has great reach and great influence. And yet they seem to almost have immunity from the bulk of public scrutiny.

As long as there are massively subsidized monocrops getting processed into oil, there's going to be oil cakes that are completely useless outside of animal feed. Animals can eat what we can't. Billionaires will claim the future is vegan but they damn well know it's not. However, the future might become more difficult for the poor.

The people you know who grow crops aren't vegan because they know a vegan world is impossible. I know you want it to be true, because you can be vegan for however long you've been vegan, but like it or not animals are incredibly important to us. There are even veganic farms that regularly rely on animals for their manure and behaviors. Cattle in India, where they abstain from beef are worshipped for the fertility of their droppings and the nourishment from their milk. This planet did not evolve with just plants and humans, and in order to sustain its fertility and nourish ourselves at the same time we need to respect that.

:) Definitely not tired of your replies, but I have been kind of busy. Had to rotate pasture today which takes a couple hours and it's 90 degrees with 70% humidity. And I'm too cheap to use air conditioning, so my brain is a bit on the fritz.

The vegan's point of view is retarded. Theoretically a human could live off the meat of a single cow for a very long time while eating nothing else. Replacing all those calories and nutrients with plant-based foods would require a lot more animals to be killed through crop deaths. A cow can and should be grass-fed so the counter argument that "cows eat crop produce" doesn't even make sense. Being a pure carnivore is actually a lot more vegan than the supposedly "vegan" diet, what an absolute joke.

The poorest people in the world pretty much eat nothing but grains already. If fake meat could at least provide them with something like meat then I'd see that as a good thing.

But it should be obvious that most vegans don't have an issue with meat, it's the killing required to get it that they don't like. So I don't see the logic behind thinking that they can't enjoy something like meat without having to kill for it. I don't think many vegans will try to argue that humans are actually herbivores, most will admit they like the taste of meat.

Pollinator mistreatment is a huge problem with tons of crop production. Fruit is a good example.

You talk a lot of fancy talk about crops being fed to animals. Do you even actually know what is being fed to animals? Something like 2 percent of the "crops" being fed to animals are even edible to humans. Unless you eat a steady diet of distillers mash and oil cakes. And thats the shit getting fed to hogs and poultry. Cattle will only get FINISHED on feedlots even in the most conventional sense. They always get at least a bit of time on pasture, though you can get ruminant meat without them eating any grains.

The problem is, you have your head up your ass. You have all these answers to questions you never asked yourself. You believe you know where you food comes from, but do you actually KNOW? What do you grow? What do you raise? Once you start your wonderful veganic garden of eden you will realize just like the rest of the veganic farmers that you can't just rely on vegan compost. Piss, shit, fish meal, blood meal, bone meal, egg shells, etc. You will be jonesing for it. And your only other option will be environment destroying, unsustainable artificial fertilizer. You will resort to using absolutely finite recourses for your "morals".

You could start growing shit right away. You could be guerilla gardening fall/winter crops in your hellhole city as we speak. But you won't, because then you'd have to eat your words.

Start with this wiki page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_feed)), it's not 2%. And even if it was just the stuff we can't eat, it would be better to compost that to replace the usage of artificial fertilizer.

You can get grass fed only, that live on a giant pasture, but that's a very small amount of the market and also very expensive.

No, once enough people go vegan, we'll have more compost. Some places also compost human waste, the infrastructure and technology is there, but it's cheaper to use cow shit.

It's not gonna happen. Not only are we using manure and animal fertilizer, but we also use their behavior. Only 50% of croplands uses machinery, what do you think uses the rest?

Chances are they use 10s of thousands of ducks, because the only other alternative to slugs destroying their crops is harmful chemical pesticides.

Now compare that to the historical figures, look up when veganism started, and when it became possible to get all of your nutrition from non-animal sources.

>I get horrible heartburn.
That sucks, if you really want to eat legumes, try fermenting them first before cooking. If that doesn't work either, well fuck, there are alternatives. I can't find any studies about legumes causing heartburns, but there are a lot of blogs and people saying they have a problem with it. Not everyone gets it from legumes, most people don't. Some get it from other things, like my sister, she gets it from onions and peppers. It takes time to learn to work around that, but it's possible.

Not the worst, but it's not good either. If I gave you a choice of you being killed quickly, or torturing you to death, you'd probably pick the former But it does't mean it's good, and you'd most likely avoid being/prefer not to be killled.

So if everyone went vegan then plants would no longer need blood and bone and shit and fishmeal? Are you suggesting plants will fundamentally change their nutritional needs if the world turns vegan? Honestly, what fucking point are you trying to make here?

Do you think compost starts by throwing some vegetable scraps into a drum? You need shit as a starter. And good-luck running a cruelty free garden that doesn't get ravaged by insects. Nobody who owns a garden as anything more than a hobby, as in people who are growing vegetables to completely cut out the need to purchase them, has a cruelty free garden. When it's a matter of "The bugs die or I lose my crop and starve" the bugs will die. Meanwhile hobby gardeners who raise their cruelty free vegetables for a laugh are supplementing it with store bought vegetables grown in places where the bugs die. You think organic vegetables are cruelty-free? Pyrethrum is an organic INSECTICIDE, not an organic "Please-go-away-Mr-Bug-spray"

This shit is why I have two classifications of Vegan. White, and Not-White. Can you guess which is the insufferable moralist who thinks their sheltered life is anywhere even close to possible for the vast majority of the world to attain?
(this is the part where you say I KNOW MY LIFE ISN'T ATTAINABLE FOR EVERYONE, and act like you can even fathom the level of difference between your comfortable life where your food is grown in obliterated rainforest by people who can no longer afford the food they used to eat because Whitey called it a superfood.

I don't eat quinoa, almost everything I eat is of EU origin (including soy, from Bayern). And most of the quinoa consumed is not by vegans, as vegans are a minority. Also, no, the rainforest is not obliterated for vegans, but for animals.
The US is the leading producer of soy, but most of it is fed to animals. If the US sold the 70% directly to people, there would be no need to burn the rainforest. Superfood is a retarded marketing name.

Obviously your reading comprehension skills are minimal at best. Not everyone in this world does their shopping at supermarkets. I know you struggled earlier with my posts so I'll try to dumb it down to your primitive level of understanding. IF you take your time and research the source of the foods you consume (farms, seed houses, butcher/rancher, etc.) you would realize that you can pick up 100% of the foods you eat for cheaper and with no additives. Once again, just because you're too lazy to discover this for yourself doesn't mean I'm as incompetent as you are. So which of us is brainwashed?

They're constantly sprayed with blood, piss, and shit from the animals that live in them. The plants and animals in the forest are participating in the carbon and nitrogen cycles which move the building blocks of living things between plants, animals, and fungi. Without animals' piss and shit and carcasses, plants would not have access to the exact forms of these building blocks they need. Nitrogen is the big one, which is excreted by animals in the plant available form of urea or ammonia, and it can't be naturally pulled from our 70% nitrogen atmosphere without first being excreted by animals or being "fixed" by certain fungi, which only live in a small amount of species of plants (legumes in the Fabaceae family being the most prominent). I can forgive most ignorance of the importance of animals and their byproducts to plants, but do these people never take a basic ecology course?

You think human manure wont lead to some issues. But human, unlike organic animal manure, is incredibly dirty and labor intensive.

And yeah, don't send links. Veganisim is just your opinion, accept your futility. I know its hard because you had to accept it when you were getting raped but thats just how life is. Life is suffering, life requires death and consumption. Animals must die, be killed, and be consumed.

Also just look at the ex vegans. There's thousands of them. They take the supplements, they adjust their diets, get chronometer and track all their macros and micros more meticulously than any human should, see doctors, do everything they can and veganism still doesn't work. Even a carefully planned vegan diet can prove to be dangerous. And vegans, lacking any true empathy, instead of just accepting it, will bitch that the ex vegans "did it wrong". That's fucked up. Tons of vegans will say its not about health. maybe you should too. Its just about feeding your broken ego. When you get sick. You will have to deal with it.

But vegans are human and crave meat, whether they want to admit it or not. So they spend billions of dollars every year trying to recreate it in a lab while a simple bean burger would be easier, less expensive, and an overall better eating experience.

this convinced me that you are brain damaged. what space are you talking about? do you think we can grow corn on air making the plant disappear? Or we should grow corn on corn on corn on ....

it is certainly more sustainable than crops. Guess what every time you plant a crop, you fuck up the soil a bit. animals mean while improve the soil. eventually the only use your farms will have is for animals to graze on it.

If you care about sustainability you vegans would get a few cows( as a community), have them grass fed, And harvest them for blood and milk like the massai. and when they die you will eat every single piece of them. you will grow chicken and ducks on a pasture and harvest them for eggs.

The issue is that all industry is about mass marketing low quality product. If you want to support people who produce quality over quantity, then you absolutely need to do just that.

Also, while I am ok with hunting, I don't think that it is always inherently better than livestock. You can care for livestock in a way you can't with wild game. And you can slaughter livestock without as much of a risk of missing and then having to chase around a deer with a serious injury experiencing extreme stress.

idk. people need to look at slaughter more objectively. People attach too much emotion to slaughter, and they only really see it through the worst light. idk, it's really not bad. It takes 2 seconds and then its over.

>> No.16480668

Oh yeah the entire world is built off unsustainable growth and we're all going to die because of it, the meat and fishing industry just exaserbate it (especially the fishing industry). I think the issue with slaughter is just the fact it's about taking a life and how clinical it is. Just a fact of modern civilization we're a lot more disconnected to how we get our food. Like Marx had said "I don't know who made this sausage", I don't know who made the food I'm eating or how it was made. When we learn about the truth it makes us uncomfortable because we've never had to think about it, we've been taught that all life is sacred and it gives us cognitive dissonance to imagine that steak as a cow instead of a product to consume.

>> No.16480701

I mean, I just stop looking at the whole world for a second. I feel like the media and mainstream institutions condition us to care so much about what other people are doing. You gotta just focus on yourself. Sausage or salad, you gotta know where your food is coming from otherwise you are missing out on a major part of life. To me, its both a miracle and a nightmare that one can just step foot inside a sanitized, air conditioned supermarket and just... get food. You can get some fresh strawberries in the middle of winter and not give it a second thought. You can pick up ready to cook oats, with sugar already inside it. Who knows if the sugar comes from cane, beets, corn, or hell even fucking coconut.

If anything, transforming a living, breathing creature into a piece of meat is absolutely fascinating to me.

Anyways, we are all going to die anyways. Our species is as mortal as we are as individuals.

Oh yeah I'm not defending it just stating the fact that our current society is built that we no longer have to think about the how and why and just consume.

I don't know how much I dislike the the idea of superstores because of their convenience, I often think about how a hundred years ago I would literally never even know avacados existed and today I can just casually buy them for a salad. But I do wholeheartedly agree that the idea of communal food production being practically non existent is a problem and how our current system wouldn't prioritize fixing it. True I can go shopping at my local markets and that's a viable option if you have the funds for it, but I don't see a large section of the population doing that. If we really wanted to change the world we'd all have to be on the same page and since we're more divided and atomized than ever I don't see that happening without a societal upheaval.

But yeah, we're on track to keep warming the planet and there's very little signs of making actual progress in fixing the environment and we're the generation that gets to watch it happen.
