- geddy 7y ago>This is not about cuisine. How can you even remotely suggest this when the proximity between humans and lifestock animals in horrible conditions is a primary driver of a) transmission of disease, as well as b) increasing resistance to antibiotics due to how much of them we pump into the animals, and then consume ourselves? It absolutely _is_ about cuisine choices and the sooner we stop eating animals and animal products, the better.
