    Counterpoint. Beef is an unnecessary, cruel, environmental catastrophe. Quite literally an invasive species that causes ecological collapse

    That's crazy. How do you feel about lab grown meat? To me that's the dream. Supposedly it would cut all that waste out, and we wouldn't need so many cows everywhere.

    I've been vegan for 10 years so I have no desire to eat lab grown meat. I don't like the fact that they still are using tissues from living animals to create it and I have low trust in the supply chain to make me believe I'd be buying a genuine product. I'm also not really into eating saturated fat, so I avoid beyond and impossible because of the coconut oils. I'm in my mid 40s and my bloodwork is great so I'm not looking to start eating things 100 years of research proves is causal of cardio vascular disease which is the number one killer.

    For me, I grew up eating meat and just replaced it with beans, tofu, and yuba and in some occasions tvp. I personally eat a lot of moong dal blended into "egg" which we call in the vegan home cooks discord "Superior Mung EGG Alternative" or smeggma lol. I think we already have all the foods people need to be happy and healthy.

    The tissue is nothing. They just take that from a cow and it lives on.

    More power to you. I'm not vegan, but I love the memes.

    The tissue is something they ripped off a sentient being without consent

    Eh vegetables don't consent to being picked either. But let's not go down that road.

    Been vegan for two years now, and I though I would miss meat, but a few months in it was not even a though anymore. There are so many incredibly delicious vegan foods one can eat, that you really don't miss anything.

    I agree with the message but a LOT more people would be on board with datacenters if it was a food source

    Not trying to argue which is the greater evil, just saying I don't think it's all that hypocritical.
