zombie_pegasus said: I've heard from one account that human meat tastes like good veal. If we really are the top of the food chain than we should be able to eat each other. We weren't actually meant to be at the top of the food chain. We aren't even carnivores, in fact we're barely even omnivores (biologically). We were originally meant to be down at the level of other apes which mostly eat plants but will also eat some insects. More animals would have considered humans as ordinary prey. Our large brains give us the ability to cultivate grain as well as created animals for the purpose of killing for food. With great power comes great responsibility. The human race is pretty immature for the control we have over the world. Couldn't have said it better. :P Honestly, humans are "top of the food chain" because their large brains have given them intelligence and ingenuity to make tools and weapons. Put a human in a cage with a tiger and we can see who's higher up on the food chain haha. |

Edit: The only people that need to eat meat or have diets consisting of mostly meat are eskimos since plants don't grow on snow. They could just import plants though >_ > |

lolatusenpai said: Lets say vegetarians manage to convince the government to ban the eating of any kind of meat and therefore force everyone to become vegetarians, what would you do? Discuss. I'd still eat it. Unless the police start raiding peoples homes to see if someone is eating meat or not I wouldn't give any shits. |

| Plants are meant to be eaten by humans. I'm obviously not going to turn my dog vegan or stop a tiger from killing a deer. Those that need meat should get meat. Humans don't need meat. And what's with "plants feel pain too" as an argument anyway? Are you people okay with causing pain to other animals simply because they taste good? Also, those animals increased in number mostly because humans bred them a lot in the first place. |

So what you're saying is cats have more rights and choices than humans. What law is it thats not religious that gives the rights to take away peoples choices of diet exactly. Also good luck getting the Japanese to change their diet of fish too. I'm not in the habit of wanting to screw up the world, defile tradition and general local food sources to force people to adopt a personal choice way of life. Banning meat would kill off quite a few ancient cultures and lifestyles still around. Many nomad tribes would also die off. Thanks vegans for raping the rest of the world to force your life choices on others. I like my system. I eat meat but I also don't go around burning down vegan only restaurants or pouring pig fat down Muslims and Vegans throats before forcing their family to watch as i force feed their small children the face of a dead cow. |

Stalker-tan said: The only real reason why I went back to meat (other than screwing up my diet) was because... Well, the meat industry is so large that it'll never end unless a very dire situation occurs. That doesn't explain why you chose to go back to meat. |
|
| Just go eat grated tempeh, tofu, white mushrooms, or granulated sago. Given proper preparations, they will have similar taste and texture as mutton. My big bro likes cooking them since they're cheap and easy to cook, whereas beef and mutton are expensive |
Stalker-tan said: Spooks_McBones said: What I did was futile. Or felt like it. How's reading comprehension for yaThat doesn't explain why you chose to go back to meat. That still doesn't make sense, this isn't a problem with my reading, its your logic. Deciding not to eat meat is a personal choice. If you yourself eat and enjoy meat I fail to see why you even went vegetarian in the first place if you were only going to go back to it when you found out that you quitting didn't end the meat industry..I mean you must have known. Its like a smoker quitting smoking but then going back to it when they found out the smoking industry didn't collapse in their absence. They choose to quit smoking for their personal health, they know them not smoking won't bring about change. Your plan is very nonsensical or you greatly overestimated your influence. |

Are you willing to kill off the Inuit culture to satisfy a need to make people eat what you want them to.

RedTie47 said: The idea that something like meat could be banned just flies over my head. It has been the central piece of the meal for many people and families out there. Instead of reducing meat consumption or banning it I think people should just eat what they want individually. Then what do you propose in terms of animal welfare and environmental sustainability? How are the growing demands for meat going to be met without further degrading the environment and reducing farm animals to nothing more than production units? MidnightLPA said: I love how people assume only Animals feel pain and don't deserve to die, but fuck how plants feel. Not this argument again. When did plants ever have central nervous systems and brains? Putting sentient beings on the same level as plants is farcical. Would you equate a dog to a plant? You've most likely stepped on grass before. Did you feel guilty about it like you would if you had stepped on a dog? Let's say that the average plant's reactions to chemical and physical stimuli have the same complexity as the average farm animal's consciousness. Even so, plants are treated like saints compared to animals in factory farms, which are the intensive industrial facilities that a whopping majority of animal products come from. It also takes far more plant life to feed the animals that end up being consumed by humans than to feed humans who eat plants directly. Spooks_McBones said: And the parts about forcing other cultures into line just slides right on by? what right do we have to make someone else take up our life choices by force. Are you willing to kill off the Inuit culture to satisfy a need to make people eat what you want them to. Meat isn't just some utilitarian matter it is part of a large amount of cultures around the world. There’s nothing wrong with consuming meat when it’s for survival. However, how many people do you think actually require meat for their health/survival? There are only two scenarios I can think of: -you have a medical condition that renders you incapable of healthily living off of a meatless diet. -you live in a place that has no adequate access to nutritious food sources other than meat. Meat shouldn’t be banned (that would be nonsensical), but the amount of meat people incorporate into their diets should be reduced for the environment and animal welfare. The process behind most meat is highly unsustainable and inefficient. Meat should be treated like a luxury, but it’s become something people take for granted in all their meals. Spooks_McBones said: Enharmonic said: I don't mind. Vegetables keep the waist slim. So does exercise and a balanced diet. Its not always got to be one extreme or the other. Why did you embolden “balanced”? A meatless diet can be balanced if done correctly. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19562864 |

| Try to change the ban. Id be okay being vegetarian if the variety of food is wide and tasty and affordable. |
| Lol at all the vegetarians in here arguing. Fun fact: Animals eat other animals, because that's nature. |
| I'd have to buy some meat off the black market, or move i guess |
| Move obviously. |

Spooks_McBones said: I am pretty sure what we do is not considered natural just because we are biological life forms. Some other animals make tools, but the word "natural" is used to differentiate between human residence/human activity and what other animals do. Humans may not have been meant to eat red meat, but pandas were meant to be carnivores so that fact doesn't really matter. Over hunting and over fishing are problems too, but I think we should be able to farm animals in a better than we are currently.zombie_pegasus said: Fun fact: animals don't keep other animals in small cages for their entire lifetime and then hang them upside down and wait for them to bleed to death.
