Even if you do not want to give up eating meat, you could observe Independence From Meat Day as an opportunity to enjoy a different kind of diet. Give your palate a do-over and find out what life is like for vegans and vegetarians

Never heard of it.

Meat is necessary for an adequate diet. There are nutrients in meat that cannot be gotten from plant sources.

People who won’t eat meat at not morally superior or more virtuous than those who do no matter how much they wish it were so.

If you come across a proclaimed vegan, ask them what is a vegan.

After they respond, ask them why they pretend to eat animals.

I did such to a house guest, she was pissed.

We are having ribs.

I suppose I could put some bacon in the beans and ham in the pasta salad.

Not sure what to do to the banana pudding although since it is made with milk and eggs it is most vegan unfriendly.

Our family has beef brisket, pork ribs, pulled pork, bbq chicken, hotdogs and hamburgers without all the sides and desserts galore planned. Four of the families bringing all kinds of guns to the firing range on the property and six families bringing a ton of fireworks…all out in the country in Dunlap TN. It’s going to be a big celebration this year - the kids have a ball with all of their cousins, swimming and riding dirt bikes and 4 wheelers around. The neighbors across and down the street always put on a good show too and have their own firing range too. I just can’t wait.

Who would be happy without meat on Independence Day?

At nearly 70 years and atherosclerosis, I have cut back on meat by at least 70%.

And I’m still able to get my 120gr of balanced protein (I exercise a lot) in less than 2,000kcals per day.
Even though I eat more than that lol

There’s nothing wrong with red meat.

But burgers and hot dogs are so loaded with saturated fat, they’ll kill ya. Hot dogs being a special kind of deadly.

And I love hot dogs.

it’s literally impossible to obtain vitamin B12 from a vegan diet and for all practical purposes, nearly impossible to obtain the necessary iron from a vegan diet ...
