You clearly don't, but some do. So don't tar everyone with your brush.db said:you assume that people give a shit
I'd place money that you wouldn't be such a smart arse about it if you had to kill your own animals for meat, but then you probably wouldn't have the balls to do it.=i know i'm eating mechanically separated meat product, i know how it is produced, etc.. i know i'm eating eyelids and scrotum and god knows what else, but it's damn tasty when it's put through the mill (quide liderally ) and made presentable..
I wasn't as you well know. I had taken part in the thread in the spirit it was intended. I object to the puerile contributions from United57 and Mikinton which dragged the thread down. Your contributions are equally as puerile.stop trying to drag an informative yet light-hearted thread down! as the previous poster says:

Whilst I don't agree with eating animals, I do agree that if you are everything should be used. Unfortunately because factory farming has made cheap meat abundantly available, people are wasteful. I suspect that most people who buy the cheapest chickens (for instance) don't use everything off it.tek-monkey said:Isn't eating all of an animal the best way? If you left all the sub-prime bits then the animal has fed less people, seems a waste.

I ignored those. Actually wasn't the thread suggested to separate the discussion that was taking place on The Swan thread? So, I took part in the spirit that was intended as a continuation of that, as did others.Mikinton said:Did you actually read the first two posts, both of which poke fun at veggies? I suspect my contribution is more in keeping with the spirit of the thread than your attempts to divert it have been.
Well maybe you should do likewise with those ingredients you find unpalatable when you eat out, rather than bleating about it.henryscat said:I ignored those.Mikinton said:Did you actually read the first two posts, both of which poke fun at veggies?

Ah, yes, of course, because turning a blind eye makes everything OK? FFS.Mikinton said:What the eye doesn't see, and all that ....
Plaese explain why eating butter is harming animals?henryscat said:No problem with a veggie version, replace the butter in that recipe with sunflower marg and no animals harmed.
Is milking the cows considered inappropriate touching ?United57 said:Plaese explain why eating butter is harming animals?henryscat said:No problem with a veggie version, replace the butter in that recipe with sunflower marg and no animals harmed.
Please explain why it doesn't, as you obviously don't think any harm is involvedUnited57 said:Plaese explain why eating butter is harming animals?henryscat said:No problem with a veggie version, replace the butter in that recipe with sunflower marg and no animals harmed.

Actually I'm curious. I know we breed cows specially for milking and there are issues of over milking. I assume there are others?henryscat said:Please explain why it doesn't, as you obviously don't think any harm is involvedUnited57 said:Plaese explain why eating butter is harming animals?henryscat said:No problem with a veggie version, replace the butter in that recipe with sunflower marg and no animals harmed.
Yes, there are a lot of issues, and plenty written about them. A bit of eugenics doesn't make it any more right to breed cows for milk....United57 said:Actually I'm curious. I know we breed cows specially for milking and there are issues of over milking. I assume there are others?
How much of the world's crop go towards making soya milk? How much of the world's crops are fed to animals for meat? The former is insignificant, the latter is huge. Deforestation to grow crops is being caused by eating meat.joshua said:There are some downsides though, chiefly that its sugar content can be high, particularly in the flavoured versions. Other issues include the increasing amount of land being used to farm it, which is leading to deforestation in some countries.United57 said:The alternative is soya milk.
Sadly?With an constantly increasing population we must move to more efficient means of food production and sadly animals are no longer efficient as a sustainable food supply,
Eating animals ought to be obsolete purely on ethical grounds. But on sustainability (and environmental) grounds too, eating meat is completely unsustainable.Within our children's lifetimes the very idea of consuming flesh may become obsolete, not for any lofty ideals of compassion but the very real fact that with the with the global population expected to reach between 7.5 and 10.5 billion by 2050 there will be no other way to "feed the world".
Yeah, but when all is said and done, you can't beat a bacon sandwich.henryscat said:Eating animals ought to be obsolete purely on ethical grounds. But on sustainability (and environmental) grounds too, eating meat is completely unsustainable.
Not really, though the growth in car use globally is unsustainable.tek-monkey said:Burning a vastly depleted resource that is our only source of plastics, in inefficient engines purely to move a personal vehicle around is more insane than eating meat.
