having to work out to keep fit is a fucking testament to the superiority of the west, and guess what? meat is integral to our diet. it's part of who we are, and who we are is the fucking greatest humanity has to offer.

Convenience. Animal products taste nice and they're easier to acquire than vegan food and it's easier to be healthy on a non-vegan diet than a vegan diet.
Once I have my life sorted out I'll probably go vegan. It's the right thing to do and most of my mates are vegan and their food tastes pretty good.

Piss off you whiny cunt. If you're one claiming to be "vegan", then would eat meat because you're dying, you're a hypocrite faggot and just don't eat meat for idiotic reasons.

>>73452898
there are many different reasons to be vegan. some are good, most are not. In your lofty ideals, is it evil of me to eat a cow that was treated as a pet on a farm, spoiled with good food, and quickly and painlessly killed at the end of a carefree life, before it became old and painful? because 90% of the meat I eat comes from a local farm where I have personally helped with the cows and know for a fact they are treated humanely as a cow can be.

If you went vegan you would probably lost most of that weight and you would be healthier.

As long as you make sure that you are getting all the nutrients and vitamins/minerals your body needs being vegan is automatically healthier then a regular diet because you don't have to deal with the bad health effects that meat causes like inflammation.

I recently heard an argument for hunting from a veterinarian (she said this to a vegan), saying that hunting is actually the most humane form of meat eating there is, because it's a natural return to the food chain, the animals live free and unconstrained, no intensive farming or animal cruelty, it keeps the population in check, and the only human technological advantage is to lessen the suffering of the animal. you could argue that it would be more "fair" or whatever to use a bow or a spear, but is the deer honestly going to appreciate that as it is taking longer to die because you can't fucking aim a stick of wood as well as a bullet?

>Athletes, particularly in sports requiring strength and power, consume high levels of dietary protein [89,90]. In fact, many athletes habitually consume protein in excess of 2.0 g/kg/day [91]. Supplementation with amino acids will further increase dietary protein levels in these individuals [92]. Yet there is no evidence that this population is at greater risk for kidney disease or losses in renal function [90]. Poortsmans and Dellalieux [93] found that protein intakes in the range of ~1.4–1.9 g/kg/day or 170–243% of the recommended dietary allowance did not impair renal function in a group of 37 athletes. We found no data in the scientific literature to link high protein intakes to increased risk for impaired kidney function in healthy, physically active men and women.

Yes. I agree that that's better than industry scale farming. I disagree that it makes it a good thing, I still think it would be better for a cow to not be killed, no matter how quickly or painlessly it happens. Cows are social animals, you probably killed someone's father or mother. Where is this farm? Is there an address or a website? It's hard for me to imagine it's a commercially viable operation in the first place.
Also why is it that the only people who exclusively use the rainbow and sunshines farm seem to be the meat eaters who post in vegan threads looking for vindication? Where are all the people who buy packaged steaks from woolies?
>>73453298
I feel like you're trolling, but I'll rise to your bait - plants have no CNS. Plants can't think. Plants can't suffer. Plants don't have preferences so plants can't have their preferences frustrated. That's one reason.
Here's another one - plant matter doesn't expel greenhouse gases at the same rate as bigs and cows do. They don't produce as much waste. They don't consume as much water, or require perfectly good grain to be fed to them. Plant life is unquestionably better for the environment than farmed animals are.

I said local farms for a reason. Methane is certainly an issue, but there are TONS of fossil fuels (as well as water and other critical resources) that are burned in the process of cultivating nuts, fruits, and the other stuff vegans consume. Not eating meat also disrupts natural environments that reach an equilibrium based on human meat consumption. The other predators that move in also don't make their kills in a humane manner whatsoever, which kind of defeats the whole purpose of not eating meat for emotional reasons.

My only point was to criticize vegans who don't think things through, yet still believe that they have a reason to take a moral stance. The physics law that says that there's always an "equal and opposite reaction" also applies to political issues.

That depends pretty heavily on your definition of "a lot of protein." 40g? No problem. Enough for a power lifter? Thats going to take some serious work.

>You can always take protein powder as well but if you plan your meals right you won't even need to.
You have a problem here. The three most common protein sources for powders are: soy, whey, casein. Soy is just fucking bad for you. Whey and casein are both animal proteins.

There are other things on the market, but they're specialty items and you don't have the same variety. That means its much more difficult to find something to your taste, something with a texture you tolerate, and something thats cost effective. I can walk into any Costco in the country and pick up a 5 pound tub of whey/caesin/albumen powder with a good blend of aminos for 45 bucks. Its easy to find, the taste and texture aren't godawful, and it does what I need it to. If I went vegan I wouldn't have a product like that.

Do you stand outside of nature or are you part of it?

If you stand outside of nature then you have the ability to force changes on it. You have to because since you are outside of the system you can lay judgement on those inside the system. So you must force animals to not eat meat as well. If you dont then you letting injustice happen around you daily even though its in your power to stop it.

If you are part of nature then you are part of its cycle. Its natural that things eat other things to survive in this cycle. The Lion eats the Antelope just as the Human eats a Deer. You are unable to judge anyone in this system because you benefit from it since you do not stand apart from it. That means you cannot pass any judgement.

you FUCKING PARASITE BITCHNIGGER

we have neither the canines for raw meat nor the grinding plates required for raw plants. this is how i know all of you are idiots, none of you have looked at the teeth of elephants or cows. we have to eat cooked food.

plus, brain tissue like ours is incredibly expensive. calories in meat were necessary for our evolution.

also you cant get b12 from vegetable sources without human level processing. we cant synthesize it. so we literally have always needed to eat some sort of animal product.

they probably would eat meat if there was any to be found, and may have historically, but like you vegan monkeys something changed in their environment preventing them from doing so. in their case, scarcity, in your retardation.

So my Ukrainian girlfriends vegan. I work in biotech/agriculture and am well aware of the flaws in our agricultural model (and have devoted my career to doing my part to amend it best I can)

I'm vegetarian-ish. But not a nazi. I will eat meat on special occasions. Your damn right I'm eating a burger on the fourth. And turkey on thanksgiving bc idgaf.

She's full blow vegan, which is admirable but I contend that if we had chickens in our backyard and ate those eggs, it's a ok. She disagrees.

I still eat eggs/dairy because I need them in cooking. They open up a whole world of possibilities.

In a theoretical situation where I had a cow and goat to milk, and chickens to get eggs from, that I treated humanely

What is inherently wrong with that

Nobody is talking about a pound of day, hell, I don't even get that on cycle. What I do get from a high protein diet is improved recovery, more satiation from meals, and fewer plateaus. Going from 100g to 220g has made cutting MUCH easier because I just don't feel as hungry. Its allowed me to consistently get in another lift a week because I'm not as sore. Its allowed me to actually pack on the muscle by always having Leucine, Isoleucine, and Valine available in the right proportions at the right times.

Because by eating meat in Australia, I am actually contributing to less animal deaths than vegans/vegetarians are.
http://theconversation.com/ordering-the-vegetarian-meal-theres-more-animal-blood-on-your-hands-4659

That said, I also believe that as a meat-eater you should be capable of killing the animal you are eating. If you're not capable of killing a cow, you shouldn't eat beef.

Not because of any moral reasons or anything, but simply because if you're not willing to kill an animal in order to eat it, you're a fucking pussy, and pussies should stick to the vegetarian and vegan menu.

Also, vegetarianism is fine by me, but vegans are fucking idiots. Eggs are an excellent source of protein and don't harm the animal at all. Cows NEED to be milked, but a vegan thinks you should just pour that milk down the drain instead of drinking it.

Also, the best way to keep an animal species alive is to start eating it. That's the reason buffalo came back.

yes. & the evolutionary balance between forces dictates that plants will attempt to use as little fruit tissue per seed as possible. its mostly water, with a little sugar. thats not very economical to support a big organism, not a lot of calories & no protein. plus, we dont have the mobility of birds or other primates to do nothing but find fruit all day, & i dont know what its like where youre at, but fruit doesnt fucking GROW HERE ALL YEAR LONG

Cow shit is dumped into the ocean where it kills life in the ocean, cows drink a shit load of water, a lot more water then any plant would need, and if you believe in global warming cows are currently the number one cause for greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, they release more greenhouse gas then anything else.

Because I don't give a shit about animals. I'll eat anything. I don't care if they were kept in cages or whipped all their life or fucked on a bi-weekly basis by a hundred year old man, as long as they taste good. You place way too much value on animal and human life.
