I know; this is Hacker News, hence a strong knowledge and habit bubble of start-up ramen and food delivery cuisine, and a lack of knowledge of all the other choices of food that nature provides, and no experiences in the kitchen besides microwave.
Vegan people must belt down their Kwashiorkor; and no idea how any other society in the world of the long and recent past, as well as the present, could struggle through the only two possible options "eternal feeling of hunger" and "morbidly obese by noodle".
- ajsnigrutin 4y agoYou're looking at extremes, while I'm saying that once you cannot afford meat anymore, you cannot afford vegan alternatives either. If you can't pay 2eur for a piece of pork, you can't afford a 3-pack of bell peppers either. But you can afford a 60c half-kilo pack of pasta.
- Eduard 4y agoIf I can buy a piece of pork for 2 EUR at my German supermarket, then this is because of the meat industry in Germany being subsidized with an estimated 13 billion EUR yearly. https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/tierwirtschaft-erhaelt-13-milliarden-euro-vom-staat-jahr-fuer-jahr-a-1dbac670-2cf4-4d09-b426-75a11c8e0569 https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/tierwirtschaft-erhaelt-13-...
