See, 8000 doesn't seem like enough. Only eight million people eat a portion of beef on a given day? Obviously it doesn't quite scale like that - not every cut

Obviously it doesn't quite scale like that - not every cut of meat is a prime steak, some of it you'd chop up and stew. But a big pot of stew will feed a dozen people, and doesn't use a lot of cow, and what it does use is not an expensive bit.
Right now livestock is the best thing we have for turning stuff humans can't eat into stuff humans can. I can't eat grass. Sheep can. Cows can. Hens eat everything.

Almost all humans can live healthily without eating animals. > Because there are so many protein-rich plant foods, you can easily get enough protein on a vegan diet. Plus, experts agree that a well-planned plant-based diet provides all of the nutrients you need, including protein (2Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source, 4Trusted Source). https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vegan-protein-sources-chart https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vegan-protein-sources-c...
- Gordonjcp 4y agoOkay, but you can't eat grass.
- barbazoo 4y agoA strawman, how apt :-) Obviously I didn't advocate for eating grass as humans can't digest it. Have a look at [0] for a diverse list of foods that don't involve animals. It's nutritious and delicious. And no cruelty involved at all. [0] https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vegan-meal-plan https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/vegan-meal-plan
