Like you get that it’s mostly people just doing their own thing, minding their biz, sans any title, and y’all assigning and making up labels for them—assuming their dietary choices

Is this the backlash cause you thought Biden was gonna restrict red meat? Post them briskets to Twitter to own the libs, quick!

Whether you are ready to hear this or not, a Carnivore Diet, a diet comprised entirely of animal products, and more specifically, a diet comprised entirely or almost entirely of large herbivores such as cows and sheep, is more vegan than the vegan diet, and we’ll prove this to you with incontrovertible facts.

My wife and I started using Impossible burger as a substitute for ground beef in some dishes and its pretty good. We still buy ground beef and meat, just not nearly as much.

Ironically, the one person who threw the biggest fit about it was my sister who is a vegan. She's incredibly gatekeepy and pious about it. You would think my wife and I making the effort to eat less meat would be encouraged, instead it was just "Well you're still terrible because you need to eat pretend meat and pretend meat is just pretend murder" which :psyduck: We don't talk to her anymore, for other reasons, but poo poo like that makes it all the easier to not deal with her.

Like I honestly don't give a poo poo what other people choose to eat, and it always confounds me when someone on an individual level tries to guilt or shame other people for their dietary habits for no reason other than to lord over them how much better they are.

It tastes exactly like you think it would taste. Personally, I think it's not terrible if you use sweetened coffee but still not as good as just drinking coffee with a beer chaser if you want.

That seems fair, idk. First link is bonkers tho

My wife will eat the impossible burger but she doesn't like it. Her reasoning is that they make it taste like meat, that vegan food should stand on its own, taste good and not to be a pale imitation of meat.

Also she doesn't like processed foods that much and you bet your rear end impossible burger is processed the poo poo out of it to make it taste like meat.

My wife is vegetarian. The impossible/beyond meats have allowed me to make some childhood dishes for her to try.

Also don't understand the "militant" people who attempt to convert or shame people based on diet either. Most notably it's usually vegans, juice cleanse people, and atkins/keto people.

Yeah if y’all wanna talk and bash weird culty poo poo that’s terrible for you, then keto is at the forefront imo. Let two keto people find themselves out on the wild, it’s weird.

Is keto a copy/paste of Atkins? I remember at one point there was Atkins labeled food at the grocery store, then he died, and the fad went away for 10-15 years

My favorite kinds of non-meat patties are the ones that don't try to be beef imitations. This one America's Test Kitchen approach that always stuck with me was basically "they don't need to taste like a burger patty, but they should act like a burger patty -- meaning it should be tasty, savory, and you should be able to grill it & put it in a bun without it falling apart."

I'll say as an omnivore I'm super excited for stuff like impossible burger and other meat alternatives.

I more just like laughing when vegans appeal to their diet being more natural, because its a gigantic appeal to nature fallacy.

My main issue with vegans are the types who claim it’s the only ecologically ethical and sustainable diet, meanwhile they’re almost exclusively urban and need all their food shipped in to them and think that populations in arid or remote communities need to grow more beans in the Arctic circle or the savannah.

Keto predates Atkins and was originally a diet to help reduce the rate of seizures in epileptic children. Atkins just looked at the fat-burning aspect of it and commercialized ketosis as a desirable state.

I have a huge lay interest in anthropology, so when I first heard about the "Paleo diet" I was intrigued at the concept I imagined it meant. i don't know how you'd manage to live as a hunter gatherer these days but if you can pull it off more power to you.

So I looked it up and Jesus Christ lol wtf is that. Just say you're keto. Calling that stuff Paleo is a huge insult to the entire Paleolithic

Paleo is definitely a much better diet than ketosis, but it’s also not really based on any historical reality for sure. If you’re ketogenic on a paleo diet you’re avoiding a lot of really important staples like sweet potatoes and fruits and nuts for no reason.

It’s an interesting concept and can teach people how to eat cleaner, but yeah it has very little if anything at all to do with actual hunter-gatherer diets.

Problem is ketosis can be dangerous as gently caress and following a Facebook group does not impart the full weight of knowledge required to understand what you are doing to your body, why you're doing it, and what risks you need to be aware of.

She also views any and all animal euthanasia as straight up cold blooded murder, which considering my wife is a veterinarian, was a major point of contention. I told her to shut the gently caress up once when she kept referring to it as murder in front of my wife, who has been very vocal that it is the hardest part of her job.

On the other hand, I know like a dozen other vegans who are cool as hell and don't give a poo poo what anyone else eats (or at least they don't express any of that to my face) nor do they feel the need to loudly tell everyone they are dumb and bad for eating differently.
