Yes:Arent we being told that its best to eat less processed food?
Cows seem to do alright in India.What I'd like to know is this:
What will happen to all the livestock breeds we will no longer need when/if we go over completely to veganism?
Would we let all these species just die out? After all, nobody will be farming them anymore.
So... would veganism be responsible for a mass extinction event?
Suppose we find out in the future that veganism is actually a bad idea? There'd be no way back to farming meat, would there?
Amen. A botle of red wine, 40 Marlboros and a couple of beers every day has kept me in good stead for years."Since I turned [insert diet here], I've felt better/more healthy" means nothing to me. You do you and if you feel the benefits, great. This doesn't mean my own body will react the same. Physically, we're all different.
Do they? They mostly look ill and are stick-thin. And they do occasionally eat a farmer's crops, cause trouble by wandering into traffic, carrying disease and so on. They are not looked after. Also, cows in Western farms have been bred to be milked. They need milking every day, otherwise they experience pain and/or infections.Cows seem to do alright in India.
Isn't that one point that some people dislike - that they're kept pregnant to provide milk?Do they? They mostly look ill and are stick-thin.

Yes, but it's too late. You can't 'unbreed' them.Isn't that one point that some people dislike - that they're kept pregnant to provide milk?
Would they?But they would breed every year in the wild.
We have had a vocal minority of people who have built their skeletons by drinking milk and consuming dairy products throughout their childhood and adolescence and then turning vegan aged 21 and claiming it has cured all their ailments and how they don’t need dairy etc.What I'd like to know is this:

What we don’t have are peer-reviewed studies of vegan babies …

Science Update: Vegetarian diets during pregnancy associated with small infant birth weight
Monday, December 21, 2020
Vegetarian diets during pregnancy are associated with small infant birth weight, but not a higher risk preterm birth or other medical complications, suggests a National Institutes of Health study. The smaller birth size may be attributable to less weight gain during pregnancy. The study appears in the International Journal of Epidemiology.
Researchers examined data on maternal and infant health outcomes from vegetarian diets among nearly 2,000 pregnant women at low risk for health complications. The primary author of the study was Samrawit F. Yisahak, Ph.D., a postdoctoral fellow in the Division of Intramural Population Health Research at NIH’s Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).
I mistakenly picked up a couple of vegetarian ”sausage rolls” in M&S a few months back. First bite made me gag and both of them ended up in the bin. M&S had placed these exactly where the real sausage rolls were always kept in a hot cabinet without any warning signs such as “vomit inducing product”Pret abandons vegetarian venture as novelty of meat-free branches wears off
Pret A Manger is axing almost all of its vegetarian-only stores as the novelty of meat-free branches wears off.
The sandwich chain is to shut or rebrand 75pc of its Veggie Pret stores six years after they first launched.
Four Veggie Pret stores have closed for good in recent months, while one in Canary Wharf has been converted into a regular Pret. The company is understood to be considering doing the same to two other branches in Manchester and London.
The pull back will leave just two Veggie Pret shops in London’s Soho and Shoreditch.

As long as you don't get "Fat 2.0™ The return: This time it's personal".Have been buying these lately. Written on the back it says;
'Featuring Fat 2.0™
Fat makes animal-based meat taste lush. So - we invented FAT 2.0™ from olive oil and put it in these sausages. It crisps up, adds succulence and we patented it so you can't copy us. All it took was several million £, 6 food scientists and some olives'.
Not sure what the process involves, but they're very good.

I must admit, constipation certainly isn't an issue after eating them.Then no fewer than four thickeners added, all of which have industrial uses including one used as a lubricant for, ahem 'personal' usage and another as a bulking agent for constipation.
Again.As for liver and kidney issues- mine are a bit shot anyway to be fair. Although that could be down to the fact that last night I had a bottle of French red, a can of beer and half a bottle of white.
