Any vegans on this site?
Matty:
i'm a semi-vegan, in the sense i'm not fucking with meat right now. but i have no religious views about consuming animals or animal products etc. and i might bust out a ham pizza if i feel like it on any given day.
i do eat fish quite regularly and get a lot of protein from high quality plant based sources. it's more i'm in an experimental phase to find out what type of diet is going to give me optimal health and well being for the long term. and that's without going into some of the more exotic superfoods/herbs, which are much more powerful for raising health and energy levels than normal foods. it gets pretty deep to the level where perceptions about a lot of stuff changes, the more you work on certain energies through nutrition. but it's only part of the bigger picture. there's a huge pool of knowledge to sift through, both on a scientific and esoteric level.
and the comment about different diets being more suitable for different people is very true. if you want to be on your a-game stuff has to be very balanced and there's no one fits all glove. people are generally more yin or yang in nature and different types of foods will benefit people in different ways. there's also a lot of ignorance from people not eating animals for misguided reasons and then not getting all the nutrients they need. but then most people with a 'standard' diet aren't getting all the stuff they need to reach their full potential either. or are ingesting too much hard to deal with stuff. depends on your outlook and if you believe there's potential benefits to the nutrition angle, given the time and cost needed to find out for yourself.

What I really can't comprehend is how we let the very animals we're supposed to eat "live" under the filthiest circumstances imaginable. I wouldn't purposely eat that junk and make some assholes that don't care for you, their workers or their "product" even richer.

? have u been to a farm? that shits dirty, and its been like that ever since. nothing different since the passed hundred years. I've been on a relatives farm, they farm almost exactly how they farmed in korea, back in the days. if its dirty now, its been dirty.
i could imagine even worse conditions for the past, considering the technology, and how much care we put into food care and health, and with all the lawsuits? come on, theres nothing wrong with these farms, they've been like this for a while, just because its now been "exposed" on TV or to the public doesnt change the fact that generations upon generations have eaten the same meats processed the same way. and yea its UP TO THE CONSUMER to limit how much meat they eat.
honestly right now idgaf how much meat i eat, I just turned 23, I'm not going to have a lot more years of eating anything left, so I'm going to enjoy it, and stick to eating bland and unhealthy food later in life.

No, it's not like it always has been. Food care and health are a joke to the corporations. Did you read eating animals? Or watch Food Inc. for example.
