Oh I know about beans and poo poo, but in terms of cutting animal based farming out of the equation without drastically changing the local cuisine, stuff like meat free mince substitute are going to be necessary.

We don't buy red meat at the supermarket anymore other than very occasional hamburger patties, although Mrs dongington and I are partial to the odd mcburger. She's anemic and on iron tablets for life but Hey I'm fine!

Not eating steak and lamb isn't as hard as toxic shitheads want you to believe it is. The concept of certain food being masculine is laughable.

I'm cooking vegan red lentil stew for dinner right now, lol.

I don't see why it's such a big deal. I watched that show "eat well for less" and they had to demonstrate to some bloke that no, you do not need to eat meat every meal. Dudes mind was blown that you could eat a hearty meal that didn't have any meat in it.

Also loads of pulses are grown here in Australia and we still have a dairy industry, so even if a large portion of Australia opted for the vegetarian alternative it's not like they'd be moving to imported foods.

Is growth medium the same as nutrient mix?

http://www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2018-05-06/vegan-alternative-plant-based-meat-grown-in-lab/9726436

quote:

One reason the price is so high is because the nutrient mix that the stem cells feed on in the growing process is expensive.
The mix contains a serum known as Foetal Bovine Serum (FBS), which is made from the blood of an unborn calf. The foetus dies in the extraction process.
"We are slowly trying to move away from that, it is expensive to put all those components into that mixture," Associate Professor Jason White said.
There are synthetic versions made from plants, but FBS is more productive because of it's universal growth medium status, meaning it can be used to grow almost any cell.

I hope that in the end the plant mix will be cheaper than the FBS

Eurydice Dixon was a beautiful young woman. Her feminist comedy act was her way of making a mark on the world. What a tragedy that her death has turned her into a feminist symbol, sparking one of those highly polemical cultural debates about men and women instigated at the drop of a hat these days. Perhaps we should be asking ourselves whe­ther this is right. Eurydice the person seems lost in all this.

The avalanche of blame for the police simply echoing the rule that Mum gives you at about 15 not to walk through the park at night is futile — and it is wrong. We know we can’t always walk through a park safely at night. The only place I have walked the streets at night — and, what is more, encountered polite young girls in school uniform offering to help me if I was lost — is Singapore. But Singapore is condemned by the left as an awful bastion, a police state riven with sexual prudery.

One could understand the blame heaped on the police if the feminist protesters and opinion writers wanted more police in the suburbs or wanted to look at the state of mental health. But, no, they just want to set up an ideological argument, an excuse to write garbled feminist polemics about sexual violence, because of “dis­respect for women”. Ordinary, non-polemic-writing women know that all men are not vicious rapists — “perpetrators”, to use the language of militant feminism. They know there are maniacs among us.

But what of the notion that all men may not be rapists but rape starts as a lack of respect, as claimed by Malcolm Turnbull during an emotional speech in parliament? He called Dixon’s death “heartbreaking”, and it was.

He then went on to elucidate on the need to inculcate respect for women in men and boys: “Disrespect of women … that’s where all violence against women begins, and so ensuring that we start from the very start, ensuring that our sons and grandsons respect the women in their lives, is vitally important.”

Well, yes, and as the mother of six sons, I don’t think the Prime Minister needs to tell me that. ­Respect comes from a deeply ­inculcated sense of the worth of each human being.

But it was not the first time he had used that word heartbreaking that day. He had used it when he talked about the rape of a two-year-old Aboriginal girl in Tennant Creek. Yes, that was heartbreaking all right. But we didn’t hear much about the rampant lack of respect for women or children or anyone in what can be horrible hell holes in central Australia where some of our most abused live. Instead, we heard that governments have ­failed, families have failed, and of course there was the usual nod paid to cultural authority.

Institutional and academic feminists have succeeded in their quest for eternal victimhood with the domestic violence agenda, carefully looking away from where domestic violence actually occurs: in Aboriginal and Islander communities, where it is in plague proportions, with more rapes and assaults on women and children than anywhere in Australia. They dare not mention that because it crosses the cultural divide. We aren’t supposed to talk about “them”. They live in another world, some sort of mythological and idealised sacred land. So the feminist ideologues seize on the perfectly sensible remarks of a ­policeman for their own self-righteous satisfaction, and politicians looking to their own patch of middle Australia castigate us with oratorical flourishes about disrespect for women.

But there is more to this than cries of misogyny. Unlike the militant feminists, I don’t see the rape of a little girl or the rape and murder of a young woman as a man-woman issue. There is a lot more than misogyny in these events. It is a human issue. There is something to be said about the deepening lack of respect for human physical integrity that is becoming pervasive, particularly among the young, through pornography and the use of drugs.

Sexual violence is a symptom of a debased culture that endorses the casual acceptance of sexual ­licence, where giggling gaggles of suburban ladies organise champagne parties to see a film about sadomasochism. The acceptance of deviant behaviour has perme­ated the culture from the salubrious suburbs of Sydney and Melbourne to the Aboriginal ghettos of central Australia where, through drugs and alcoholism, the people are much more susceptible to be perpetrators and victims of sexual violence.

Sexual violence is a symptom and cause of sexual abuse. When children are exposed to these horrors it leads to a lifetime of warped relationships. Human ­beings cannot look at other human beings as fully formed people, they are just objects for gratification. Consequently, even in our clever developed world, the ­desensitisation to pornography leads to another heartbreak, the heartbreaking disengagement of sex from love.

Sometimes the truth can come from quite unexpected places — even from feminists.

I have heard only one feminist make much sense about the effect of pornography on love and the individual. She was not popular, even with feminists — espec­ially the new “porn is OK” types who thought she was old-fashioned and her anti-porn stance was anti-freedom. Ironically, she seemed to be a strident man-hater, bold, tough and physically unattractive, her polemics were all shaped in the man versus woman dichotomy. She put the blame for rape squarely on men. But she understood only too well the fundamental damage to bodily integrity that comes from prostitution and pornography. She, unlike her attractive bourgeois contemporaries who enjoyed spouting feminist theory, really understood there was no heart in pornography and its ally, prostitution. She understood it because she had been damaged by prostitution herself.

Her name was Andrea Dworkin, and her memoir is Heartbreak.

Potato, onion, garlic and carrot. Recipe is basically the same as this one (though we used 1.5 cups lentils for some reason).

I tried doing meatless Mondays for a while but the timing never worked for me (husband worked late and a lot of the recipes were kinda involved), so instead I do mostly vegetarian lunches throughout the week. People don't need as much meat as they think and also don't realise they need vitamin C to absorb iron, which is easily available in beans and other vegetables (and fruit).

In a bold move to make sure independent hardware stores are gone forever, Bunnings Warehouse have opened a concept Betoota Ponds store where they will be debuting a new system of selling hose pipe by the centimetre.

Bunnings CEO Michael Schneider claims this is an exciting time in the companies history and he cannot wait to start giving back to the free-spirited community.

“After conducting an in-depth analysis about the local area we know that this will suit the demands of local teenagers and their mothers who are tired of having their hose pipe decimated every Friday and Saturday night,” stated the CEO.

Branch manager Darren Sidoti (44) is very excited for the community to start shopping at their customised Bunnings Warehouse, which will also be stocking Bic lighters, straightened paperclips and empty Gatorade bottles.

“On our opening day alone we sold 14 kilometres worth of hose pipe and 3,506 snags,” stated the manager as he twirled a dreadlock round his white fingers.

Amidst claims the hosepipe strategy could lead to higher levels of marijuana use, Sidoti claimed it wouldn’t be an issue, citing his own experience as an example.

“I’m an old-school boy and I used to be cutting up my mum’s hose in order to enjoy a cheeky billy but look at me know; I am the branch manager at a hardware store in the town I grew up in.”

Unconfirmed rumours state shift manager Jack Sharman (34) also deals a bit of ‘clover’ on the side and if you find a cheaper dealer, he’ll beat them by 10%.
