    A waste of perfectly good cattle. I like meat, but I have common ground with the vegans when it comes to excessive farming for wasted animal lives. It’s hard to argue were the most humane—obviously—predator when our practices are set up for throwing half of it in the bin.

      I saw a statistics that 12% of Americans eat 50% of all beef produced in the USA and I cannot stop thinking about it. Everytime I eat a burger I wonder if I’ve passed into the 12%. When I look at a stack like this, I see a beef 1%er

        Yeah, that’s it. And then I consider the environmental impacts to sustain the meat grinder that sends so much of its output to waste. At some point we lost our feeling of responsibility of eating meat because it just appears in front of us like magic. It’s good to wonder such things, “Wait a second…am I a big fucking part of the problem?”
