May as well buy burgers in the US, since you already paid for most of it through taxes! (lemmy.world)

I realy don't get why people eat those meat subsidies. They are realy not that good and unhealthy too. Cooking a meal just with vegetables and other stuff can taste realy good, is healthy and cheap at the same time.

You want the real reason in a thread jerking off vegetarianism? Here goes:

Meat tastes great.
It gives me a sense of fullness that plants rarely do (except beans).
It's a better protein source.
The iron, B12, etc. in it are more easily absorbed.
Every brand of fake meat I've tried tastes terrible.
It makes me feel the best mentally compared to eating other foods.

Why is it that countries that don't eat red meat as much as Americans live far longer than we do?

Okinawans live well past 100, and are doing physical activity into their 90s. Americans are falling apart by the time they turn 60, dead before they hit 80.

I hope the flavor is worth the colon cancer!

While moderation is the key to everything, and I wouldn't be surprised if cutting out red.meat is a lot healthier for the consumer

Feels like you just randomly made something up here by comparing some random outlier stories you've heard.
