It's not even nice. People ate meat because fresh fruit and vegetables weren't available all year round or even at all. All good food has plants to make it taste nice. You can easily just skip the meat and go straight for the flavour.
- snowe2010 8mo agoYour comment makes no sense. If plants weren’t around for humans to eat then how did the animals humans eat survive? Humans eat animals because they are a denser faster nutrition than plants. More bang for your buck. Trying to act like humans “only eat animals because” is ignoring reality.
- pmarreck 8mo agoThe Alaskan word for "vegetables" is literally "boring food"
- givemeethekeys 8mo agoDo you live in Alaska?
- dehrmann 8mo agoIn Swedish, it's "green things."
- globular-toast 8mo agoMmm yeah, Alaska being well known for culinary excellence, of course.
- anonym29 8mo agoYeah, I hate being stuck with a luscious rare filet mignon basked in clarified butter, it's so flavorless that I have to chase it with celery, cucumbers, and lettuce just to stomach it... /s
- globular-toast 8mo agoAnything tastes good in butter. Try some okra or cabbage if you're ready for some flavour.
- anonym29 8mo agoKeep in mind, there are more people who have a medical necessity to avoid cruciferous vegetables (like cabbage), gluten, nuts, and other types of plants than there are people who have a medical necessity to avoid meat. As a whole, more humans are medically biologically incompatible with plant consumption than animal consumption. Note that I'm talking about adverse medical reactions that range from worsening of chronic disease to acute death, not merely gastric discomfort, like with lactose intolerance. Not everyone has the privilege of enjoying buttered cabbage.
