Yet another dietary article not in favour of veganism/vegetarianism got flagged. Well done Hacker News.

Exactly. Sadly however some people would still prefer to believe WHO's authority and take their meat-causes-cancer factoid to be a fact. > Does a low-carb diet improve health outcomes? Or a vegan diet? We just don't know, and a

The appeal to authority on this one is pathetically strong.

Why are you spamming this thread by posting biased sources? Michael Greger is a vegan, and is not exactly unbiased. https://www.reddit.com/r/ScientificNutrition/comments/adfowt...

Culture is tied to nationality. Do you have an example indicating the contrary?

by sridca 7y ago
Yup, there are 4 combinations in total. For example, a white American will see: 1. Someone of different nationality (eg: a white Australian) 2. Someone of different ethnicity (eg: a Black American) 3. Someone of both different nationality a
