The one thing that puzzles me is that
why is beef called beef instead of dead cow flesh? or why is Pork called pork instead of dead pig flesh or why Roast beef is called Roast beef instead of Roast dead cow? or why beef steak is not called sliced dead cow or why sausages are not called minced dead pig flesh? or why bacon is not called sliced dead pig? At least we know that a vegetable burger contains vegetables whereas a "beef" burger or "pork" sausage is mostly rusk, fat, ground up bones, gristle and single digit %tage of ground up dead animal flesh? |

It's milk when it comes from or own species and fed to us by our mothers but when across species it's 'Other species growth juice'. https://ibb.co/P9xLCM2 Imagine if we hadn't been indoctrinated into thinking milk was some independent man made product and saw it for what it was, what would people think if they saw this: https://ibb.co/Pjyhq40 At least we know that a vegetable burger contains vegetables whereas a "beef" burger or "pork" sausage is mostly rusk, fat, ground up bones, gristle and single digit %tage of ground up dead animal flesh? Yup. And many people are in denial about it all, that's how they can carry on what they are doing because they have been marketed into buying what the people making the money from it want, without having to consider the animal suffering or the damage the 'industrial levels of production' are doing to the planet and the negative impact on our health. Why is all the medical advice saying we should eat *more* fruit and veg and consume *less* meat and even avoid all processed meats, if that wasn't the best thing for us to do? And this is against the push-back of all those with something to loose (money) by not continuing to peddle us with all this stuff that's bad for the animals, the planet and us! Milk consumption in the UK and the USA has been going down since the 70's and rather than realising that the writing is on the wall and moving over to plant based alternatives, they are trying to pedal the stuff to the far East (with some disingenuous 'Wouldn't you like to do what they do in the West' marketing) peoples who are even more intolerant to the stuff than we are! It's all crazy but luckily, is changing ... Cheers, T i m |

You are shopping in the wrong places. -- Future generations will wonder in bemused amazement that the early twenty-first centurys developed world went into hysterical panic over a globally average temperature increase of a few tenths of a degree, and, on the basis of gross exaggerations of highly uncertain computer projections combined into implausible chains of inference, proceeded to contemplate a rollback of the industrial age.

Because it sounds more attractive and all part of the conditioning that allows someone who wouldn't normally 'hurt an animal' to allow themselves to be disconnected from the process and then do so? ;-( https://ibb.co/yfhdx5q https://ibb.co/Sw8DCJQ Unlike you I don't advocate the beating of farm animals and choose they die in a humane way. It's the same with 'Milk'. It's milk when it comes from or own species and fed to us by our mothers but when across species it's 'Other species growth juice'. https://ibb.co/P9xLCM2 Is this a way of saying you're mother is no longer a cow? What are you trying to say? Imagine if we hadn't been indoctrinated into thinking milk was some independent man made product and saw it for what it was, what would people think if they saw this: https://ibb.co/Pjyhq40 Did you wank over that pic? Many has developed a digestive system that can digest milk. So drinking milk and eating milk products is a natural act for us. At least we know that a vegetable burger contains vegetables whereas a "beef" burger or "pork" sausage is mostly rusk, fat, ground up bones, gristle and single digit %tage of ground up dead animal flesh? Yup. Noname is wrong. There are laws that prevent bone getting into beef including the ban of mechanical recovery of beef from carcasses. Do keep up. And many people are in denial about it all, that's how they can carry on what they are doing because they have been marketed into buying what the people making the money from it want, without having to consider the animal suffering or the damage the 'industrial levels of production' are doing to the planet and the negative impact on our health. Which goes to show the load of nonsense spouted by fanatical vegans. Why is all the medical advice saying we should eat *more* fruit and veg and consume *less* meat and even avoid all processed meats, if that wasn't the best thing for us to do? Most medical advice is based on a balanced diet. That includes a natural source of B12 from meat products. And this is against the push-back of all those with something to loose (money) by not continuing to peddle us with all this stuff that's bad for the animals, the planet and us! I don't see any pushback. I do see a wider choice and nothing wrong with that. Milk consumption in the UK and the USA has been going down since the 70's and rather than realising that the writing is on the wall and moving over to plant based alternatives, they are trying to pedal the stuff to the far East (with some disingenuous 'Wouldn't you like to do what they do in the West' marketing) peoples who are even more intolerant to the stuff than we are! Again there is nothing wrong with choice. There are attempts by various manufacturers, Nestle comes to mind trying to sell baby powder to poor countries but not aware of any pedalling. Perhaps you can cite some examples but I know you won't be able to. It's all crazy but luckily, is changing ... Yep, keep up with the B12 supplements. |
