$40 per YEAR?? What magic gym is this you speak of?
That’s the cheapest gym membership I’ve ever heard of.
Gonna need a source for that claim on higher inputs for human food.
If economics is your excuse for raising animal feed instead of human food then it’s just another knock on capitalism. (Although if you calculated the economic cost of raising/slaughtering/shipping all that meat, I’d wager it’s not cheaper than growing plants for humans to eat)
Also, we farmed animals in the past because they are a good storage for calories when it’s winter and you can’t grow food. We live in a global society now. It’s not necessary. Animals are grown and killed because their meat is pleasurable to eat; simple as that.
Yeah, alfalfa is the correct translation. I tried to do a quick search for how much land is used for forage crops (like alfalfa and hay) but didn’t come up with any decent stats. However, I looked for the global crop production stats and the top 4 globally are sugarcane, corn, rice, and wheat. These 4 contribute almost 50% of total arable land use. On the graphics for production— forage crops don’t even get an honorable mention. So unless you have some info on how much wasted land alfalfa grows on, I’m going to say it’s not all that important (land use wise)
Second, using different cultivars for animal feed and direct human consumption is true. We don’t eat dent corn. We eat sweet corn. Two very different varieties. However, saying that one variety can be grown on this patch of land and the other varieties cannot is simply false. Yes there are differences in adaptability of different varieties, but they aren’t massive. Especially when you read about how much fertilizer and water we dump on our animal feed crops each year. Any damn plant could grow with those kind of inputs.
And lastly, your “appeal to tradition” argument is a classic logical fallacy. So I won’t try to refute it.
This is weapons grade copium.
The main ingredients in almost all animal feed for industrial farming (90+% of meat production) is grain/cereals. Like corn, wheat, oat, etc. humans eat those things. The protein sources for animal feed is usually soy… humans eat soy.
Please explain why “the soil we use for growing animal feed is not suitable for growing human food”
The only factual part of your comment is about your grandmas chickens eating food scraps. But I’ll bet you they didn’t live entirely on scraps. They still get grain to survive. Also, as stated before, 90%+ of meat doesn’t come from sustainable grandma’s chickens. It comes from hell on earth factory farms.

Would syncing your backup directory work? Like take snapshots of your system, dump the snapshots all in a single directory, and sync it to an off-site location?
Nah, he’s a duck. Ducks are feathered bags of pure rage.
But he’s handsome and talented, so it’s all good.
That there is Nigel. He turned 5 this April.
Would also be nice to know where each of these substitutions are preferred. Eg: for sweet cakes/brownies, vs savory goods/bread, etc.
Nimrod@lemm.eeto Vegan Home Cooks@vegantheoryclub.org•Sunday dinner: first BBQ of the season2·2 months agoYo, pasta salad is a staple. That shit looks delicious. Happy grilling!
Good reminder—I should make lasagna!
Looks tasty, but it need more sauce for my preferences. Why didn’t you layer the tofu ricotta in between the noodles?
Edit: I’m dumb and I can’t read good. Ignore my question.

I would kill for a mozz that got anywhere close to actual cheese.

Just try looking at the same recipe page in safari and then again in Orion. Night and day.
Awesome. Thank you for the source. I knew of the technology a long while ago, but I had no idea that France and Germany both enforce its usage.
The best option is still to stop eating animal products, but this is still a win for overall animal welfare.
So what happens to them? Just a slightly more humane death before they reach a week old?
And for everyone out there diving into the insane amount of “documentation” out there
“Tek” is simply shorthand for “technique”.
