You know, this argument would have better legs if our current approach to food production wasn't one of the biggest contributing factors to environmental destruction and climate change.

Yes, humans are omnivores, yes, animals eat other animals.

But we're not just eating other animals, we're selectively breeding animals en masse to be bigger and beefier than their own legs and heart muscles can handle. We take over vast swathes of arable land to grow introduced soy and corn crop, creating a destructive mono culture, then we don't even eat the nutritious crop, we pump it through feed pipes to barns and stock yards filled to the brim with thousands of animals.

Humans eating meat is natural.

But the way humans currently produce meat is far from natural.

While being vegan myself, I don't agree that every human on earth should also be vegan, I just think we collectively need to accept that meat is a luxury, and treat it as such.

Our hunter gatherer ancestors did not eat meat every day.

Our dawn of agriculture ancestors did not eat meat every day.

Our forebearers of the industrial revolution did not eat meat every day.

Our own grandparents, prior to the 1950s, did not eat meat every day.

We should eat meat as nature intended....not the way our current battery farming practices allow
