Your post struck a nerve.

No one in this group would ever suggest that you should eat the way that we choose to. No one. We may wish the world was vegetarian, but we respect everyone's right to choose for themselves.

This is a protected group & yet you barged in & suggested that we don't understand human evolution, like we think all humans were just a bunch of carrot crunchers before the slaughterhouse.

When it comes to diet, we are some of the most educated people out there. We know that everything is interconnected. Many of us are concerned about the way we humans treat our fellow inhabitants (the animals), the way we treat our planet & the way we treat our bodies.

As to this question of yours,

why in the world would you want something that is supposedly a lot like the meat you won't eat.


I refer you to my previous post:
