Have you tried fava beans with that? (Just thinking this reply might be a clever way to introduce another nuance wrt our evolution-related meat-eating behaviors.)
Nope, no fava beans nor a nice Chiante. 🤪
And I believe I’ve mentioned before that cannibalism, by it’s very nature, could never be a sustainable way of living for any…[Read more]

Gary Larson’s The FarSide was always hysterically ingenius. I always thought his cartoon about “Gross Stories” depicted what kids would tell around the camp fire when people stop believing in the supernatural.

to Kill Our Planet”, about how American agriculture is ravaging the air, soil and water. But a powerful lobby has cleverly concealed its damage.It is part 1 of 3.

If it is the former then i gotta say theory of mind has been more or less established in gorillas, chimps and bonobos. I would be surprised if it were not far broader than that.
Both, but neither statement nor all…[Read more]

Credit to Robert for his point about revenge in cross species pandemics. That means the vegans/vegetarians are collateral damage.

Mommy, do the udder moo cows eat meat? in the forum Science — the kind that requires evidence and reason. 4 months, 2 weeks agoOur ancestors, much like most modern primates surely ate whatever they could get including insects and meats. This does not automatically imply that eating meat is healthy for us with our long lifespans and lifestyles.

“Formed?” “Designed?” Right there indicates that the cow isn’t thinking right. She probably stampeded over to Ken Ham’s museum and masticated his porcine regurgitations. 🐮🐷😁

Our teeth are formed to eat grass and our digestion system is designed to process it. It was unherd of until a few years ago when some of us had our feed spiked with meat by the “two legs bad” people. That led to many of us going insane with bovine spongiform encephalopathy.
