Why are so many of you SO against veggie-based meat substitutes?

They're getting really good at this shit now. Have you tried beyond meat burgers? Flippin beefy!
But even beyond that, i've seen people get [u][u][i]mad[/i][/u][/u] about the idea of a hypothetical meat substitute that tastes just as good.

Why [i]wouldn't[/i] you want to eat something that didn't mean taking an animal's life if it was just as god or even nearly as good as the real thing?

I'm not against it, if someone wants to eat plants made to taste like meat,be my guest. I will eat the real thing.

Why would you prefer to take an animal's life when you can eat something plant based that tastes like meat?

FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F

@Pikachu because I'm an omnivore and meat is part of a well balanced diet.

Actually, protein is part of a well balanced diet. Meat is an easy source of protein and some other nutrients but it's not necessary at this point.

@DunDunDun what's the problem?

DunDunDun · 22-25, F

@FreeSpirit1 That problem is that your comment was stupid. It's extremely easy to get enough protein while being vegan and meat doesn't have some kind of special protein that humans need to eat.

@DunDunDun So be a vegan, I'll continue to eat meat.

DunDunDun · 22-25, F

@FreeSpirit1 You were spreading lies about veganism and acting as if humans need meat to live or be healthy. If you want to eat meat then I can't stop you so go ahead, but don't expect me not to call out your bullshit.

@DunDunDun what lies did I spread about veganism? I said I don't care what people eat.

@FreeSpirit1 What lies did you spread about veganism? I literally said it in the thing you responded to...lol, also you know what you said before that too. Again retard, if you wanna eat meat then I can't stop you, but if you say shit about veganism that isn't true then I will say what's wrong with it.

@DunDunDun Why are you so hostile?

DunDunDun · 22-25, F

@FreeSpirit1 I'm not. I think you have the meaning of hostile confused.

FreeSpirit1 · 51-55, F

@DunDunDun So you call people "retard" often? No hostility in that?

DunDunDun · 22-25, F

@FreeSpirit1 You have animals tortured and abused their entire lives for no reason other than "I want to" yet me saying a word you don't wanna be called is hostile lol, quit being such a sensitive little bitch, not everything is about you and your feelings.

@DunDunDun OK, Have a nice night.
