Never let you meat loaf.

I find that these people pushing vegetarianism or veganism have a very poor grasp of science.

I wonder if they are aware that CO2 is, in fact, the material of life?

The animals that we eat consume vegetation that humans cannot eat. In order to grow the higher density vegetable matter that humans can consume, land would have to be converted to crop use. The advocates of veganism for all never address that side of the equation.

I’d like to see the calculations on how much land it would take to feed humans, if it all had to be converted to the growth of high-density edible vegetation and we didn’t have animals to convert the inedible vegetation to edible meat.

If they do this, 3 things they don’t want to happen will happen!

1. The price of meat will fall. Our meal bill will be less.

2. The price of Tofu and other soy crud will increase. They will have less money for Clinton to waste on tours.

3.Consume too little protein, Franch says, and your body will start tearing down some of its existing structures in order to get the amino acids it needs.

Your system does not perform this self-demolition indiscriminately. “When forced to make a choice, your body will take amino acids from your skeletal muscle in order to supply your heart and some other organs,” says Wayne Campbell, a professor of nutrition science at Purdue University whose research looks at the effects of protein intake on healthy aging.

This loss of skeletal muscle mass happens to everyone as they get older, Campbell explains. Known as sarcopenia, this muscle loss usually begins during people’s 40s or early 50s, and continues steadily for the rest of their lives. “This leads to physical weakness and difficulties balancing and lifting objects, and eventually to frailty,” Campbell says.

Every Monday in Indianapolis is Meatless Monday as Tony Kattz so aptly puts it. The city has determined that a day of the week should go to not eating meat in the guise of global warming. However, this is the day others and myself included partake in steak dinners and other forms of meat based entrees. Meat does the body good as more protein is found within meat than some Muscle Milk drink or some supplement.

Please do. As supply increases and demand falls, I get better prices on steak.

Of course, the grain feed part could be solved by eating grass-fed beef, which is more expensive, but apparently provides a better protein.

WE WANT (grass-fed) MEAT!!! WE WANT (grass-fed) MEAT!!!

I love vegetables - they go great next to meat on a dinner plate. We’re omnivores. We’ve been blessed with best of both worlds.

Baked potato and fresh slice garden tomatoes next to a perfectly cooked steak. If that isn’t proof God loves us, I don’t know what is. :-)

“A recent survey of 50 Nobel Prize winners found the smartest among us believe that two of the biggest threats to humanity are climate change and President Trump”

Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.

“Going fully vegan would cut the average American’s carbon footprint in half”

and quickly kill off every vegan via self-induced pernicious anemia (no vitamin B-12).

and after everyone turns vegan, the next step is to quit producing cement and smelting/melting steel and all other industrial metals. then we can quit making plastics, which will put and end to all electronics and electrical machines, including EVs. Next, eliminate electricity itself: we won’t need it anymore anyway without plastics. And finally, people need to quit heating their homes in winter and cooling them in summer. Living in caves with natural climate control and cooking with dried dung chips should end the “threat of climate change”, no?

I’m getting a big steak for tomorrow’s dinner - my standard response to these articles.

The current grain heavy diet is KILLING Americans and they know it.

Eating more meat is indeed healthy.

Meat is what we are designed to eat.
Vegetables are what food eats.

The so called smartest among us have failed to notice the real greatest threat to mankind - socialism. It’s already killed a known 100 million. Trump’s body count so far and into the foreseeable future is zero, and holding steady.
