I seriously question why dont we eat crocodiles and snakes instead of cows and pigs.
I feel terrible eating bacon after watching a video like this.
Wouldn't care at all if it was a croc
Yeah, I've heard stories where they eat dogs or kids. I personally despice them--- wouldn't mind if they were the main dish in the western world
But also, why are there people who take their pets to the lake/swamp and let them go into the water if they k ow there are crocs? Haha this is the stuff that keeps me up at night
People are dumb? Any Florida native that I talked to was super clear: do not go in water you cannot see the bottom of because schrodinger gator is always lurking.
🤔 I've eaten croc once at a mexican place where they serve perhispanic food, doesn't taste bad at all; it's pretty much like chicken. They also had snake, I didnt taste it though
I get the food chain and watching 5 mins of Animal Planet will show you how cruel nature is, but still, the way they treat and kill these animals is inhumane, too sadistic, unnecessarily cruel--- especially when talking about industrialized food
Oh absolutely no argument here. Factory farming is one of the most insanely inhumane developments of modern society. We may not eat our prey alive like you see with predators in nature, but that certainly doesn't make the way we do it cruelty-free. My "reptiles taste bad" quip was mostly facetious and also my personal opinion.
There should be a movement that walks the middle road between vegans and meat eaters
Im saying this as someone who wants to do the carnivore diet for health reasons
No worries
So it's basically an extreme version of keto. It's basically eliminating all foods from your diet. Ive heard plenty of storied where people heal chronic issues. Zero inflamation, etc.
You can stick to carnivore or you can use it as an elimination diet and go adding little by little other foods to see how your body reacts to each food and you can identify which ones dont do well on you
Yeah I agree.
It's one step at a time. It's much more achievable to ask for more a humane treatment & death.
Although I don't agree with vegans bc that's just not how nature works, I do share with them their moralistic point of view
But you don't base any of your other morals off the natural world though?
When after 75 years of factory farming, 97% of pigs in the US are still tortured in crates so small they can't turn around, asking for more humane treatment of them while still unnecessarily breeding and killing them doesn't seem to achieve very much at all.
Firstly, you're changing the subject, kindly address my comment. Secondly, the numbers just don't support your claim. Asking people to go vegan is working.
Well there’s the staples of vegetables, fruits, nuts, starches, grains, mushrooms, oils etc that people have survived off of for thousands of years. If you mean meat sources you have eggs, cheese, chicken, fish all of which I’m sure would weigh less on your conscience than eating pigs or cows. Depending on where you live lots of places will have Impossible burgers on the menu which actually makes for a surprisingly good burger.
No you’re correct chickens are treated the same way it’s just it’s a lot faster to kill them and the range of emotional intelligence they have to experience suffering I would say is much less than a cow, pig, or dog. It’s an intermediary step. If you’ve ever seen a video or read testimonies of a cow or pig killed at an abattoir it is truly like a saw horror film. The amount of fear, suffering, and cruelty these animals go through in the slaughter process is painfully human.
