We’re admitting meat actually costs more than vegetables now?

“Y’all” was referring to anyone who’s still eating meat in any industrialized country that has access to animal-free options.

Have a burger and maybe contract bird flu while you’re at it 🥴

You got me: I use this one username to base my entire personality on because that makes sense

I was going to say breakfast burritos, it’s essentially the same thing but I usually add soy chorizo.

I grew up in a hunting environment and just never got into it. I also never liked things like steak, fried chicken, or other foods which are essentially a slab of dead animal. Eating something like a steak where you’re confronted with the fact it’s ONLY an animal was a lot more uncomfortable than something like a hamburger. And I never cooked meat myself as an adult because the thought of the blood and handling it were out of the question.

I wish I’d realized it sooner. When I finally went vegan it was at a very difficult time in my life. I’d been working crazy long hours, and one night I was eating a sad frozen lasagna that had far too much beef. It kept getting stuck in my teeth and I started thinking about the cow’s life and how miserable I felt, but once I thought about how infinitely worse that cow’s life must’ve been I just couldn’t take it anymore.
