Libtards believe that you Freepers should give this up because it is a resource-hungry luxury!

As the world population grows, we have a pressing need to eat better and farm better, and those of us trying to figure out how to do those things have pointed at lots of different foods as problematic. Almonds, for their water use. Corn, for the monoculture. Beef, for its greenhouse gases. In each of those cases, there’s some truth in the finger-pointing, but none of them is a clear-cut villain.
There’s one food, though, that has almost nothing going for it. It occupies precious crop acreage, requires fossil fuels to be shipped, refrigerated, around the world, and adds nothing but crunch to the plate.
It’s salad, and here are three main reasons why we need to rethink it.

So what’s left to eat, liberal lunatics? Insects? Algae? Bark?
Do these people ever stop with the angst over the most mundane things? Do they ever get their wadded up panties straightened out? Sheesh.
They can eat bark, then I’ll be full and a whole lot of the world’s problems would be solved.
Salad is great! It’s the lettuce that’s the villain.
Tomatoes and fresh mozzarella with a little pesto and vinaigrette? Now THAT’S a salad.
Years ago I read “Survival Into the 21st Century” by Victor Skulvinskas (I think that is the correct name).
Anyway, he interviewed people, nuns I think, who claimed to be Breathairians. They claimed to live on nothing but the air they breathed. (There was a picture and some looked a
Little chubby. I suspect they were cheating.)
This is what will be proposed next.
Soylent Green.
Because Soylent Blue is being discontinued.
Meanwhile rice production is about the world’s highest source of methane emissions .... so what are humans supposed to live on?
Salad exists as a matrix to hold olive oil.
Cooked vegetables exist as a matrix to hold melted butter.
I grow leaf lettuce, spinach, swiss chard etc.
>>Meanwhile rice production is about the world’s highest source of methane emissions .... so what are humans supposed to live on?
We’re not. At the heart of all this is the belief that there are too many humans.
They just want everyone to starve like Somalis and Ethiopians.
What a load of crap. Most of the best crop acreage is now covered by housing.
Punish BIG Salad NOW!!!!
The answer from pro-Planned-Parenthood-and-euthanasia liberal lunatics and globull warmist wackos:
I’m always amazed at how many restaurants try to pass leafy greens and shredded carrots off as a salad - if it doesn’t have tomatoes, IMHO, it isn’t a salad!
What would we diabetics eat, if "Tamar Haspel" had his/her/its way?
Tamar Haspel is right! People create too much drain on the world’s resources. She should immediately kill herself and compost her corpse.
If he had his way you’d be dead.
There is an ill wind blowing out there.
