"I'm glad that I can eat a meat-and-dairy-based diet and am not forced to fill my calories with garbage plant-based substitutes."
Must they be garbage substitutes? Must your vegetabilic food look and taste like a meat facsimile? I hear this perspective often from meat-eaters when they contrast their diet to a vegetarian diet, and I cannot understand it.
- gridlockd 6y agoYou can't understand that people like meat, eggs and dairy and that they don't want to miss out on them?
- daneel_w 6y agoI certainly understand it, but surely you have more on your plate than just eggs, cheese and steaks to provide calories. For what it's worth I've come across several excellent meat facsimiles. I don't worry about any potential harm coming from a smaller portion of a proper cooked meal being a processed product.
