This article, to my mind, is a completely political bit of nonsense. It's from Norway so likely none of my taxes were wasted on it but American Universities have just as biased or nonsensical crap.

I'm retiring to eat my cow burger for dinner along with some murdered veggies that were not allowed to reach maturity to spread their seeds and ensure the next generation.

Someone needs to remind this leftist nitwit what most animals are capable of doing to each other, without any compunction at all.

This is one of the modern issues caused by disregarding theology, and especially Judeo-Christian theology. The idea of a sacrifice becomes less and less meaningful.

Norway has limited their nut cases to the non-STEM Nobel committees.

But the infection has spread to their university psychology depts, apparently.

Sorry, but that PhD candidate’s degree is equivalent to a good 1950 high school degree.

I wonder if there is a difference in taste between American and Norwegian Soilent Green?

Lack of absolute perfection found - liberals horrified, demand enslavement of humanity to fix problems and butchering of resistors in the name of peace. News at 11.

There’s a place at the table for all of God’s creatures, somewhere between the biscuits and the mashed potatoes.

It is helpful to kill your own meat from time to time.

Then you know what you’re up to.

So we are in denial over politics also. Liberals, Demonic-rats, progressive and left are same ole commies.

This article proves unequivocally that the West is too rich. A serious society would not undertake such nonsensical “research.” The “postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Psychology” should drop out and go learn auto mechanics, computer programming, petroleum engineering, or carpentry and do something useful with his life. Can you imagine this schlub getting home from “work” and his husband asking “How was work, today, dear”?

Who eats cow?

No sensible rancher would ever slaughter a cow!

They slaughter Steers only.

These fools must have gray vegetable matter in their mostly empty skulls.

I did a quick check on Google translate and it looks like Norwegian follows the German method of naming meat. Storfekjøtt og svinekjøtt mean cattle meat and pig meat.

Meat comes from styrofoam. I thought everyone knew that.

What ridiculous nonsense-what do they eat in Norway if not meat? It is too damn cold to grow most of the veggies we have here...

I live in the country and was brought up on my family’s small working ranch-I’ve helped with plucking, gutting and butchering from an early age-dead chickens, pigs and cows are still delicious-and I have fresh-killed spinach and a chicken I bartered with a neighbor for to put on the grill right now-it was walking around just yesterday-yummy...

The French use the same word for “beef” and “bullock”. Are they vegetarians?

Apart from that, the authors seem to confuse squeamishness with moral insight.

Already by referring to what we eat as "beef" instead of "cow," we have created a distance between our food and an animal with abilities to think and feel.

Bullshit.

Beef == le boeuf == bullock or steer (the animal from which the meat comes) in French.

Pork == le porc = pig in French.

Chicken? Duck? Goose? Lamb?

Mutton == le mouton == sheep in French.

The author is simply wrong.

For the love of algore.

Beef is the edible part of the cow, cow is the entire thing, bones, hooves and hide. Pork is the edible part of the pig, mutton is the edible part of the sheep and so on and so forth.

I eat steer, not cow, specifically white-faced Black Angus steer. His name was George. George is tasty. Cows are for milking and making steers, and the older ones are only good to be ground up for burger. Steers are better for eatin'.

Pig strips... Thin crunchy pig strips with aborted fowl in the morning is as yummy as it gets and frankly, I could care less what they call it... I’m eating my pig strips and aborted fowl. Later on, I’ll have me some cow in steak format, or maybe some ground up innards in cylindrical shape with some mustard on top. Food is yummy, meat is yummy... Alpalpha sprouts are cow food. The cow eats the sprouts and then we eat the cow... That’s how I get my veggies.
