I should buy some beans.. Making fried rice a couple times this week and feel like it needs more non rice ingredients too.

More people would live up to 88 under veganism.

Really. In chasing ever larger profits we discovered one footgun after another.

Honestly, I'm surprised that humanity has made it this far.

Legal status:

In 2017, the European Commission suspended authorization for its use in animal feed across the European Union.

Today, ethoxyquin has been banned in the U.K. and by members of the European Economic Area, including Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. But ethoxyquin, within limits, is still permitted in animal feed in Australia, Japan, South Korea and the U.S.

According to Wikipedia, in the US it can also be added to "chili powder, paprika, and ground chili", for direct human consumption.

People probably won't unless you make it expensive not to. Then suddenly they pretend to care about the poor.

Couldn't they refuse to buy it to kill the demand?

food production being given a priority above some less important things though, like a golf course or car wash

You mean the UK should prioritise things that actually matter? Outrageous!

Off the back of that event, the British Meat Processors Association (BMPA) called for processing sites to have "continuous access to water, irrespective of wider pressures on local supplies". Water companies are currently required by law to prioritise households over businesses during shortages. The request remains unresolved

I think that is a pretty sensible law and should remain unchanged. I could potentially see an argument for food production being given a priority above some less important things though, like a golf course or car wash. But then that could also open up considerations of which parts of food production? Some foods use orders of magnitude more water than others, meat generally being the most inefficient option.

You could eat the grain that would have been given to the chickens and then you don't even need a meat processing facility and don't need to bother growing most of the grain.

This is the same as the bovine TB crisis in the UK.

There is a lot of diversionary politics surrounding it, but the fact is brutally simple and unavoidable: modern farms are Petri dishes.

I thought water use was only bad when AI did it

These findings were compared to Adventists who maintained an otherwise healthy lifestyle but still consumed animal products.

“Many of those non-vegetarian Adventist people in this study were still very health-conscious, so in some ways, it’s amazing that we found anything at all,” said lead author Gary Fraser, an epidemiologist at Loma Linda University.

Actually finding proof of causation in dietary studies is incredibly hard and I’m not at all an expert.

The actual experts about overall cancer risk:

However, they cautioned that more evidence is needed to confirm whether a vegetarian diet lowers overall cancer risk. “The evidence from this study was suggestive of lower risk in vegetarians, but did not quite reach the necessary standard to say more,” researchers concluded.

In the end, health, environment, and the other findings over the years, are all secondary to the actual reason for veganism: reducing unnecessary animal suffering.

Even with all of these extra factors most people don’t seem to be interested in having their moral consistency questioned. So, hopefully this kind of research lowers the barrier for some.

This question is answered in the article. They even put it in big bold italicised letters. You're actually a caricature. How does it feel?

Could be a bit of both.

It'll be embarrasing if the animals topple the bourgoise before we do

Is this because meat causes cancer, or because people who adhere to a diet tend to be more health-conscious and physically active in general?

Correlation is not causation!

Better non-republican aligned source?

Don't tell @jet@hackertalks.com !

This person has converted recipes before. I suspect they'll do it again

This is a standard weeknight meal in my house. We do a quick pickle on all the veggies. We add a little nori. No reason not to have a little mayonnaise based sauce, but I would add it at the end so the veggies don't make it watery.

I like to think of poke as a sushi salad.

I was actually looking up ideas for sushi bowls before I posted here.

This will sound strange, but trust me.

Blanch and peel tomatoes, quarter then and remove the core.

Marinade them in soy sauce, rice vinegar, and seaweed.

Same texture as the flesh of the innocent, but 100% less evil.

I like to think of poke as a sushi salad. I do eat fish, but if sustainable fish is unavailable or whatever, I'd just use Edamame instead. Edamame is a common topping to begin with and it's literally just soy.

My personal favorite is Edamame, mango, corn, nori, cucumber, and avocado.

You can wrap tofu with nori and pour a lemon juice/ soy sauce mix with a little yellow mustard over the top and microwave for a couple of minutes. Chill in fridge while you prep other stuff. Does it wonders.

Gotta have pickled shredded daikon/carrots and toasted sesame seeds on it too.

Edamame tends to complement the traditional poke bowl flavors pretty well.
