Ahh, so many references to Kant and Nietzsche...and then it gets weird.

Good thing we're only machines made of meat, otherwise all this talk about "right and wrong" would be important.

Too bad Jeffery Dahlmer didn’t get involved with this (vegetarianism) instead of whatever his gastronomical hangups were.

She's probably one of those, "Don't call me a chick," chicks.

I think I will settle for the nice big garden I am going to plant soon.

Love fresh veggies, cantaloupe, and water melons. And my stand-by Jalero Peppers.

This Fossil likes to cook and eat.

Actually I ran into this website to explain the food side of this argument.

I think my favorite is the 60lb Rice Crispy Treat

The burger won't get a headache.
It won't get mad if I eat a different burger.

No kidding. If you shove chocolate in her mouth will she STFU?

Didn’t bother with the article - just answering the headline:

“Is Food the New Sex?” Uh, NO!

I told my teenage daughter several years ago: “There are two things boys are interested in: food and sex, and they’re willing to go hungry now and then.”

two things without which human beings cannot exist: food and sex.

The human race as a whole could not exist without sex. But individual humans can live just fine without sex. (Maybe not happily - but they won't die without it.)
