Cows are 20 times less efficient to raise than beans and roughly three times less efficient than poultry and pork.
= = =

Try grazing poultry or pork on dry sagebrush land.

Or planting beans there, hot dry windy rocky steep, etc.

#12: "Tofu though, is linked to cancer."

True. Women should not eat tofu because its phytoestrogens increase the risk of breast cancer. And men should not eat tofu because soy phytoestrogen causes men to grow breasts.

48 hours!?
C’est beaucoup de temps!
I may try some version of that anyway at a certain time.

That’ll be a hard no from me.

I will continue to eat beef as I prefer. As well as other animals.

They can stuff it.

No, I don’t have my own Grill handy.

I only cook beef on my Weber Kettle charcoal grill. It's pretty easy. They make a little one (Smokey Joe) if you don't have much space.

I get it, but they don’t need proof. They know they can do this. They will do this. And then it will be chicken and fish and all other non-plant food, except maybe insects. And then they will work on refining the plant-based foods into products that can only be made by large corporations.

For 12 cents a day you can help a Chinese peasant. Eat more rice.

Just one question, Epicurious. What percentage of our atmosphere is comprised of CO2 and what percentage would you like it to be?

I've had people ask me if I'm a vegetarian because we grow a big plot of blueberries. I laugh out loud.

I tell them, "Hale no. I raise beef cattle for a living. The beef is for the main course and the blueberries are for dessert."

Being a blueberry farmer just doesn't have the same ring to it as being a beef cattle rancher.

So screw the Bidens and the Kerrys and the AO-Cs of the world who think I'm going to stop raising steaks and hamburgers for the sustainability of the planet.

Take your Green New Deal and shove it up your kale and arugula arses.

All ruminant animals (like sheep and goats) have significant environmental costs

Good luck cancelling goat meat. Muslims and Hispanics eat goat and we know the left would never do anything to make them mad.

Yes, at the end of the day these companies—their shareholders—will refocus on why they exist: Make a Profit. All of the social justice and virtue signaling is costing them money, hurting the shareholders, and hopefully that will cost these executives their jobs.

"I’m still learning how to cook it so that it’s tender, and without taking all bleeping day to get that way."

Tenderize steaks with sparkling water

One thing about raising cattle is that you can graze them on hills that don’t make good land for farming any of the row crops. And while we are at it, why aren’t they lamenting the amount of land that is under cultivation of wine grapes? Wine is not a food yet if you drive anywhere in California you see vineyards and wineries everywhere. It is a huge waste of land. We could get rid of expensive wineries and grow beef instead.

1. I/we eat beef.

2. I/we don’t drink wine.

Works for me.

You can bet this, along with the government wanting us to eat less beef, will cause the price to skyrocket. Beef is the new toilet paper. Let the hoarding begin!
