>> Mozaffarian discloses in the ATVB paper that he receives funding from Barilla, the world’s largest pasta company—which clearly stands to benefit if meat is sidelined off the dinner plate. (Barilla has invested heavily in nutrition researchers and in promoting the idea that meat as bad for the climate). Follow the money.

Big Pasta are in on the climate change hoax too? You cant trust anyone. I was going to quote this exact section, as I felt it was one of the few areas where they let their "we just want real science" mask slip and revealed their consistent "pro-meat" stance.

  What's this got to do with climate change? I thought it was about diet and CVD.

    The blog is a front for the meat industry. They try to stick to the areas where they can have vaguely plausible deniability that they're not just attacking everything that would impact meat sales and agriculture subsidies, with the cover that they're "wanting to look at the evidence". But the comment I replied to quotes them having a swipe at a challenge to meat from a non-nutrition angle, which tips their hand a little. The whole, "we just want the science to be certain" thing is a popular tactic, see for example the Heartland Institute's attempt to have a "Red Team" of scientists pick holes in climate science: https://climateinvestigations.org/heartland-institute-climate-red-team/ https://climateinvestigations.org/heartland-institute-climat... Wouldn't surprise me if you could trace this group back to them too. Ha, didn't think it would be that easy: https://www.heartland.org/news-opinion/news/follow-the-science-at-least-on-nutrition https://www.heartland.org/news-opinion/news/follow-the-scien... For those that prefer Youtube videos: Is Nina Teicholz right about saturated fat or is she a lobbyist for the meat industry? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK5ApjZdPEo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VK5ApjZdPEo lots of links in the description too.
