You have ten seconds to justify your consumption of meat without resorting to taste preferences or broscience.
Pro tip: You can't.

vegans are like gays, always pushing their shit in your face forcing you to accept their way of life and doing as they do.
i used to didnt mind going vegan, but every vegan i have talked to seems like an arrogant asshole and talk as if they are holier than those who eat meat.
I belong to an omnivore species.
Easier to bulk with meat.

>>35211754
Because my stomach physically isn't big enough to hold the volume required to hit my macronutrients on a plant-only diet.
And I don't want green skin.
Really, I'd like to become vegan, because I hate how stock animals are treated and want to help the environment. Then I realize meat is just too good and easy.
Gluten phucks with me. Vegan diet=wheat.
>>35211754
What's the real psychological reason people become vegan/vegetarian? Only a fraction will really be doing it because they care about animals
Is it a sense of superiority? Having guilt for other things in their lives?
Just sage and move on. The vegan trolls only exist because people respond to them.
Meat is a more efficient protein source per pound than vegan alternatives and is way easier to cook with.
I've considered going vegetarian in the past, but I could never go vegan. Eggs are way too awesome.
>>35211754
I eat apex predators. I ain't gotta explain shit.
>>35211754
I eat virtually all my meals at the dining hall at my university. It's hard enough for me to crack even 100g of protein a day there as a vegetarian since the nutritional content is such shit. Being a vegan would set my fitness goals back another five years. No thanks.

Chickens and Turkeys will probably be fine....they just taste good.
>>35211925
Eggs are shit
>>35211754
Why is it so hard for these autistic vegans to admit that it is far from optimal when it comes to micronutrients, essential fats and protein? In fact as a vegan you either have to eat tremendous amounts of the exact right foods or use a lot of supplement powders to get the same result as a simple omnivorous diet.
So fuck off with your faux-ethical vegan garbage. You aren't morally superior, you're just some city-dwelling sissy completely out of touch with nature except for the slaughterhouse videos you watch.
>>35211905
It's almost certainly a hormonal imbalance, and I'm not just trying to flame the OP. Generally a lack of testosterone in puberty will lead to more effeminate and emotional thinking, and therefore one will be less likely to care about meeting their own dietary needs due to some irrational empathy for farm animals that aren't even aware of their own existence. It's like people who cry when they step on a bug, they're just a hormonal mess.
Vegans proteins are NOT COMPLETE
I repeat, not all proteins are equal, just like 20g of carbs in a banana is not the same as 20g of carbs in a chocolate bars.
Incomplete proteins = less efficient muscle recovery after working out = less gains
VEGAN = LESS GAINS
source: I've been lifting for 5+ years and tried to go vegan for 3 months. Ate the same amount of proteins as I usually do on an omnivore diet. My recovery was shit so instead of training 5x a week, I could only train 3x
>>35211754
Because chicken.
>>35211993
u fockin wut m8
Less calorie dense way to hit my protein macro, and are complete proteins.
Easier way to get hit your micros without supplements.
More variety in diet, makes for happier little vegemites, less neurological hormones in a state of decline (you need your b12 folks).
Less hormonal deficiencies in general. Men need good sources of dietary cholesterol. Like eggs.
Be an omnivore.
>>35211982
Chickens ARE dinosaurs nigga. Aves (birds) are under the Theropod distinction of the Dinosauria clade.
>technicalities
It's interesting that this whole vegan/vegetarian movement is coinciding with record high meat prices globally.
Gee, it's almost like some 3rd party is trying to convince people they don't need to eat meat anymore to prevent them from potentially rioting due to high meat prices... hmm, what could that 3rd party organization be? The U.S. government? No, no way Jose.

Iron. It's very difficult to find the same levels of iron as there is in red meats. Yes there is suppliements, but they don't get processed effectivly through your liver when you're on other medications that bind with blood albumin more effectively.
Being anemic and a female who has periods, iron is vital to both my mood, energy and ability to function (being cold, heart rate, dizziness or oxygen carrying capacity)
There are vegetables out there but they don't have the same levels for the amount i would have to eat.
>>35212110
http://www.nap.edu/read/10490/chapter/11
>Given the capability of all tissues to synthesize sufficient amounts of cholesterol for their metabolic and structural needs, there is no evidence for a biological requirement for dietary cholesterol. Therefore, neither an Adequate Intake nor a Recommended Daily Allowance is set for cholesterol.
>A Tolerable Upper Intake Level is not set for dietary cholesterol because any incremental increase in cholesterol intake increases CHD risk
>>35212115
The cholesterol in your blood is used to synthesize testosterone. This doesn't mean that the cholesterol you eat turns into testosterone. It doesn't even mean the amount of cholesterol in your blood determines how much test you produce.
Broscience.
This guy follows a vegan diet. It's basically anti-aging. I'm thinking of trying it for a week.

Iron is actually one of the reaons to avoid red meats. That's the main thing associated with the increased risk of colon cancer.
Beans and lentils are great for iron and actually help prevent colon cancer.

The only way to end animal suffering is to end animal life. Even if we ended only the predator's lives, the result would be unchecked population growth for every other species and the death of us all, so no, they'd ALL have to go away for the suffering to stop.
You think a cow that lives in a nice farm getting fed and being protected for a few years until it dies to a single shot to the head is not happier than one that lives in the wild, possibly starving and on the run from predators 24/7 until it faces it unavoidable demise, dying in pure agony, one bite at a time?
Yes, companies that abuse animals should be (and probably already are) illegal, but they're not all of them - just the ones vegans focus on, for some reason. That's what you should focus on, vegan.
Also, you should probably start by attacking Jews and Muslims: their religions demand animals be slaughtered in terrible ways for them to be "acceptable". For instance, Jewish religion demands a cow dies by having it's throat slit and slowly bleeding out. That's cruel.

It's supplemented in most products today, even if they aren't "vegan" products. It's really hard to not get enough B12, unless you're on some really weird diet.

why do we eat fucking anything if it isn't for taste...
if they (aliens) created a pill which:
-contains all nutrients required to build/maintain a /fit/ body without eating anything for the rest of your life
-is created to vegan standards
-tasted like nothing when put into your mouth/swallowed
-actually makes you full when consumed
If this pill was given to you, would you still eat food and why/why not?
>>35211754
The fact is, b12 is essential for human health and is only obtain via animal sources or an injection, which leads me to think that we were probably meant to eat meat. The modern Western diet of the past 100 years however, contains way more meat than is best for the body, planet or the animals themselves.
Before factory farming, meat was very expensive and therefore not consumed as often as today. I think a diet based on plenty of fresh fruits, grains and vegetables with the occasional serve of meat is natural, and best.

It's easier to prepare and store meat and animal based meals in manageable portions. It takes up less space in my freezer. It's more available in my region, both at the grocery store, and in the wild, than significant sources of vegetable protein (I live in the subarctic).

More and more, bodybuilders and other athletes are proving that you don’t need meat to make muscle.
How are they doing it? A diet rich in various grains, legumes, and vegetables provides all of the protein our bodies need, without the large amounts of saturated fat and cholesterol found in animal foods. Just one cup of lentils contains 16 grams of protein, while a cup of quinoa contains about 11 grams. Even a cup of broccoli has more than 4 grams of protein.
While fad diets often lead people to believe that they’re not consuming enough protein, in reality, most Americans are at far greater risk of consuming too much. People who follow the standard American diet – filled with meat and dairy products – often consume about twice as much protein as they actually need. One recent study linked diets rich in animal protein to early death, while other studies show links to heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and other conditions.

The human body is the one with most evolutionary advantages
We can live with meat only and we can live without meat at all
We supposedly have a brain too, we supposedly can choose what to eat for our optimal health and it's universally recorded that this means something along the Mediterranean diet (very low in meat, very very low in red meat, some fish)
We are "naturally frugivore" at best, yet we can choose to voluntarily adjust our diet for further benefits and use our evolutionary advantages for rogue situations (i.e. greenland villagers have to eat meat, or meat)
Getting the same amount in macros and nutrients as a vegan is much more expensive.
I don't really care about the taste of what I eat. I just go for what is the best value for money.

shit quality bait
where does one get protein? no black beans where i'm at. soy is shit tier. otherwise, too much excess calories and, believe it or not, i don't love anyone enough to do 3 hours of cardio for them. this way, i consume turkey breast and tuna in brine daily, some fresh cottage cheese and fresh salads. i can control my macros easily. with vegan diet, i'd have to eat soy, which i really do not want to. white beans don't pack that much protein (only beans where i'm at).
bottom line: tell me how to get my protein without fats and carbs and i will turn vegan that very moment.

>>35214170
i can only get white beans, where i am at
no tofu
only soy chunks, white beans and broccoli.
broccoli aside (can't eat a kilo of it per day for 30g of protein), beans pack more than double the amount of protein in carbs (45g). for me, that is too much carbs. soy also has a lot of carbs and fats. i am an endomorph, with poor carb metabolism and i hate all kinds of cardio. the only cardio i do is in supersets and dropsets in the gym and with meat eating diet i am keeping my ass lean. with beans and soy i'd start packing loads of extra weight that i sure as shit do not need, just to get enough protein for muscle growth. not to mention the fact that i wouldn't be able to use creatine supplementation or whey protein when going vegan. soy boosts esterogen, which is in no way good.
also, eating fruits is murder as well as killing animals. the fact that plants don't scream when you destroy them doesn't mean that they weren't alive.
one more thing, unrelated, fuck all vegans who own dogs. worst kind of people.

Meat is richer in protein than any plant based source. If I were to hit my daily proton quotas w beans and nuts id have to consume 2x the anount amount of food im consuming now. Thats why all my vegan/vegetarian friends are DYEL skinnyfats.

I don't give a fuck about the ethical intricacies of being vegan and as I reported I'm mostly pescetarian. I just eat what it seems more healthy, yet I use leathers and so on. I would bathe in kid's blood if it granted benefits.
>endomorph
That was a theory purported by a psychologist, and disproved. Ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph body types are memes.
>too much carbs
tofu is extremely low in calories. Honestly my caloric goal is 2700 kcal/day and ~310 kcal for 100 grams of legumes at ~25% proteins is good enough for me.
>>35214102

Chimps aren't bodybuilders or athletes though. People aren't asking vegans how to get enough protein to survive, but to be athletic/build lots of muscle. If you eat nothing but fruit you'll probably get like 10 fucking grams, that may keep you alive but you'll be able to do nothing else.

>>35214493
Still more than 0%
Even if it's a small amount in their diet, its existence justifies its consumption.
-The vegan diet has questionable health benefits.
-The argument of human's being herbivores is bullshit.
-It is a privilege of rich people in western civilization so its ecological impact is questionable when huge parts of the world will not or can not follow a vegan diet.
-The variety of foods required by vegan diets require long distance shipping of foods, potentially increasing your carbon footprint.
-Abandonment of livestock farming will see the elimination of entire species bred only in captivity. It is more immoral to commit genocide than murder.
Enjoy your fad diet, vegans, it has no point other than making you feel morally superior by eating fucking tofu without actually having to be morally superior

A large proportion of this amount is eaten in the dry season months of August and September. In fact, during the peak dry season months, the estimated per capita meat intake is about 65 grams of meat per day for each adult chimpanzee. This approaches the meat intake by the members of some human foraging societies in the lean months of the year. Chimpanzee dietary strategies may thus approximate those of human hunter-gatherers to a greater degree than we had imagined.
What you posted does not conflict in any way with what I said.
Less than 2% of their overall diet isn't really relevant when the food item at hand is primarily eaten only 1/6th of the year.
Besides that I don't really know what chimps have to do with humans. We aren't chimps and our digestion system is not the same.

>>35214638
perhaps i'm misunderstanding you, as your previous post came off like they were hunting and consuming meat as a regular part of their diet
with gombe chimps that is the time of year where fruit is scarce so it is the hunting season indeed, i'm not understanding why you think this refutes their biological classification as primarily frugivorous though
>Besides that I don't really know what chimps have to do with humans. We aren't chimps
we are very homologous to them hence they are the ideal animal model, e.g. for cardiovascular research

>>35214851
>you think this refutes their biological classification as primarily frugivorous
Show me where I said that. I only said that when you say meat makes up very little of the chimp diet, it is misleading. That statement totally discounts their seasonal dietary habits to make a blanket statement.
>most of the gi evolutionary divergences are seen for consumption of cooked food in humans
I'll grant you teeth and jaws, but the rest you are going to need to source
It also fails to explain humans lack of a cecum compared to other apes.
At some point in our evolutionary history plants would have needed to be inconsequential to our nutrition (or an overabundance of food, which is very very unlikely), to the point it was pointless in maintaining the ability to digest fiber. And I think you are underestimating how much different our guts are to apes.
We are human. We are at the top of the food chain because our ancestors have been fighting and dying for animal kingdom supremacy for millions of years.
Throwing that away and living on salad and soybeans is quite possibly the lamest shit you could do.
>>35214722
I don't know too much about catfish, but salmon and tilapia farms are fucked. You literally can't breed enough salmon to be profitable in a closed system. In a semi-open system, the fish still develop fish lice (parasites in their flesh), though not as bad as they do in closed systems. In these semi-open systems they spread the lice to salmon that pass by them, negatively affecting the spawn and crippling the natural population for years hence. It happens on the east coast, it's happened in Norway, it's happened on the west coast of Canada (not sure about the west coast of the USA though). Tilapia has a similar issue but it's a less fragile fish, it will probably take approximately 15 years for the problems to be as severe. Catfish might be okay, not sure how different pure freshwater aquaculture might be. Those aren't fisheries though, they're aquaculture. There's a lot of interesting research out there on both coasts, and particularly the island universities in Canada (UVic and MUN's Marine Institute).
>>35215155
The oceans have been getting seriously fucked for a few hundred years now. The fish population has been cut in fucking HALF as a direct result of human overfishing and ocean pollution. And this rate of ocean depletion is still increasing with new advanced fishing techniques that result from increased difficulty in catching any damn fish, because there's not many left anymore.
Which is a bummer because fish are super tasty.

Just scrolling through and landed on your post.
Fish is not objectively healthy. However, I don't feel like fighting with you on that when you left such a juicy part b)
LMFAO M8 ARE YOU SERIOUS
EVEN IF FISH DIDN'T FEEL PAIN ARE YOU ASSERTING THAT IMMORAL ACTIONS ARE JUDGED SOLELY ON IF SOMETHING FEELS PAIN BECAUSE OF IT?
ARE YOU LITERALLY A 2 YEAR OLD CHILD?
Secondly fish may feel pain but have no way to express it in a way we can view.
Thirdly even if their nervous system was incapable of feeling pain, if they had consciousness they can still suffer without feeling physical pain.
BUT FUCKING REGARDLESS PAIN OR NO PAIN DOES NOT EFFECT THE MORALITY OF AN ACTION HOLY SHIT WAKE UP ANON.

I eat it because I like getting the protein and being able to reach maintenance every day. On a more personal note though, I like the taste of it, and I like knowing that a dead animal is being eaten by someone like me who won't waste it.
I have noticed that I have dark under eyes if I don't eat meat at least every now and then. Despite taking iron supplement. So eating meat makes me look better. It also gives me energy and makes me full. I don't even like the taste of it that much so I could go without meat if I had to, but I don't see any reason to do so.
I'm a female so I need iron especially much and meat is such a great source of it.

The vegan diet is very healthful. Though I'm sure you've got some obscure study talking about how vegans are more likely to get into car accidents on Tuesdays or something to prove me wrong.

It doesn't matter what humans are 'supposed' to eat, and if you thought it did then you'd be eating a lot less meat
>-It is a privilege of rich people in western civilization so its ecological impact is questionable when huge parts of the world will not or can not follow a vegan diet.
Meat is the food of privilege. Only rich Western countries can afford to eat it in the amounts we do. The poor third worlders you act like you represent eat a mostly plant based diet.
>-The variety of foods required by vegan diets require long distance shipping of foods, potentially increasing your carbon footprint.

You seem very frustrated people care about things you don't. You also seem to be the one acting superior here.

Objective review of the vegan diet. Coming from a meat eater who is intrested in plant based eating, but doesnt want to instantly jump into a fad diet based on feelings.
>You can get adequate and complete protein on a vegan diet. All protein are "complete protein". Its just that some sources are lower in some amino acids. Same thing in meats.
>B-12 defiency is not an argument since meat eaters get their b-12 from supplements as well because the animals are given b-12 supplements.
>Natural b-12 source is basically dirt. Food we eat today doesnt contain much b-12 because its so sterile. B-12 is a really cheap supplement anyways.
>Vegan diet lacks in DHA and EPA which are mainly derived from fish. You can get algea based vegan omega-3 supplements though.
>You are susceptible to overdose on carbs on a vegan diet. Many people fall into idiotic fad diets like "30 bananas a day" and raw veganism.
>On a vegan diet you need to pay special attention in order to get enough fats and protein.

Because of this dude
I was vegan for over a year and dealt with the consequences personally. I followed some other militant vegans on youtube who went through various ailments and realized that a balanced diet is the best option.
By all means, go vegan but don't come crying to me when your teeth and hair starts falling out.
Gelatin and organ meats are necessary. I believe the problem with a meat-centred diet is that people are mostly eating lean meats, not getting any gelatin or marrow or eating organs.
>>35216160
>overdose on carbs
You were doing so well before that
>>35216217
sounds like you didn't supplement properly.
>>35213992
what does this achieve?
>>35216240
I supplemented with b-12, k2 and zinc. I ate quinoa, beans, fruits, vegetables, lentils, rice, seaweed, natto, sauerkraut. Main meals were kale, bananas, hemp protein shakes, beans+rice and tempeh.
What was I missing? Lost over 40lbs, mostly muscle mass, at first I had a lot of energy and thought it was great but as more time passed and more weight was lost I began to be sluggish, tired, poor mood, bad sleeps, weak etc etc.
If you want to see a funny progression of fanatic veganism to grave remorse follow the rawbrahs on youtube.
I don't recommend daily meat intake or just lean meats either. I recommend free-range, organic meat, if it's red meat-grass fed. Game is the best but I've found the most important things to be bone broth and grass-fed cow livers.
How long have you been vegan and what do you supplement?
>>35216295
Also hemp is a great source of protein, along with insect-fed eggs and raw grassfed milk.
I lean towards a 75% vegetarian diet but try to source my meats from ethical and sustainable sources, knowing that for my body it is a necessity.
Also I worked at a raw vegan restaurant and it was hilarious listening to and seeing the people that worked there. They constantly talked about how unhealthy meat eaters were and how great it was to be raw vegan. They were the sickliest, weakest looking people I've met and their emotions were all out of control. Girls would cry at work, guys would rage, there was no trust or true love. Just vapid shells who spouted memes of living authentically but had no substance or virtues at all.
>>35216203
If you're not proud to be a human you're fucking trash.
I bet you're one of those who think dolphins are almost as smart as us.
>>35216240
Why would you choose a diet that requires strict and heavy supplementation JUST to be not sickly and weak?
