The opportunity cost of animal based diets exceeds all food losses
- PaulHoule 3y agoJust plain "cost"?

- tuatoru 3y ago> Here we define and quantify these opportunity food losses as the food loss associated with consuming resource-intensive animal-based items instead of plant-based alternatives which are nutritionally comparable, e.g., in terms of protein content. We consider replacements that minimize cropland use for each of the main US animal-based food categories. I'll start worrying about this after we've stopped using a large fraction of food crops to make biofuels, and still have a problem.
