      No is suggest you eat bugs when there are great plant-based alternatives such as pulses, peas, beans, lentils, nuts, seeds and whole grains.

      Real meat from animals is good for you

      It’s objectively bad for you in the quantities eaten by the west. Cutting out red meat, milk and most of the other animal products from your diet is measurably better for your health.

      Stop giving billions to giant multinational cattle farming companies. It’s just as large an emissions source as oil (which you can also stop funding directly by avoiding driving where possible and going solar-powered electric for the rest)

        If I can get meat from a local farm is that ok? Am I excused from causing pain if I know it’s from an actual farm where I can go and pet the cow before eating it? Asking for a friend…

          Because the cow is murdered and you’re definitely lying about buying small farm meat when the vast majority of meat is from factory farms. It’s always the Carnist gotcha that is always a lie.
