Substantial nutrition that we don't need though. You could get even more nutrition if you didn't feed the animal in the first place and just ate some crops made

Substantial nutrition that we don't need though. You could get even more nutrition if you didn't feed the animal in the first place and just ate some crops made on the same land the animal would have eaten.
It's like those golden tomahawk steaks. There's no point in covering a steak with gold, yet we spend effort digging a hole in the ground to do it.
- pigsty 4y agoUnfortunately, humans explicitly evolved to consume animal products. There are B vitamins that humans can only naturally acquire through eating animals that we die without. It’s possible now to generate those B vitamins, but saying humans don’t need to consume animals is like saying we don’t need to walk to be healthy. Technically true, but most of us have two legs that we evolved to live a human lifestyle and getting around that requires a bunch of atypical lifestyle changes that are massively difficult and unnatural for most people.
