Read something last night I need help understanding.

Matrik August 17, 2011 07:25AM

Basically, 1 pound of meat requires several pounds of grain, several gallons of water, and a lot of energy/time/various other expenses to manufacture.

vortexmagus August 17, 2011 08:29AM

W-w-what?

Dune August 18, 2011 07:35AM

"clearly feel pain"

Matrik August 18, 2011 12:41PM

Plants have nervous systems. (n/t)

Matrik August 18, 2011 07:59AM

Proof? Evidence? A link?

valkenar August 18, 2011 10:16PM

You obviously don't know how QHCF works. Burden of proof is on you around here. ;) Details inside

Matrik August 19, 2011 06:20AM

Dude, your link says plants don't have nervous systems (n/t)

valkenar August 19, 2011 07:10AM

Thanks for not reading it. Plants have no "complex" nervous system.

Matrik August 19, 2011 07:18AM

It makes sense from a biological standpoint.

istirith August 19, 2011 07:45PM

Look up that shit on cutting vines, plants feel pain.... n/t

wishore August 20, 2011 07:30AM

Insects clearly feel pain too. Should we never kill them? (n/t)

Artificial August 18, 2011 07:50AM

Do they?

valkenar August 18, 2011 10:19PM

You kill a lot of sentient animals lately?

vortexmagus August 18, 2011 07:40AM

Reponse to Vortex and Artificial

Dune August 18, 2011 08:59AM

How about magnitude of pain?

PaulO August 18, 2011 04:37PM

Response to PaulO and Matrik!

Dune August 19, 2011 12:45AM

PAIN response

Matrik August 19, 2011 08:00AM

Not eating meat for "humane" reasons and eating plants instead is unreasonable.

Matrik August 18, 2011 12:25PM

Well, first of all, regarding the specific case of consumed meat

vortexmagus August 18, 2011 09:21AM

Totally agree on one point.

Sam August 17, 2011 11:18AM

Not a vegetarian

valkenar August 18, 2011 10:29PM

Well I've been a "vegetarian" for about 9 months

Lokain August 17, 2011 02:31PM

I can relate to this.

PaulO August 18, 2011 06:10PM

I didn't know it was 80%, but I do like that number

Matrik August 18, 2011 06:49PM

I'd be up for eating bugs. (n/t)

Starscream August 18, 2011 06:14PM

Bon Appetit!

I briefly thought that but...

Matrik August 17, 2011 07:37AM

Where you can grow grazing/fodder you can generally grow grains

wishore August 17, 2011 07:39AM

If they owned as many automobiles as Americans, supposedly increases the number of automobiles on earth by 800 million. Something like that. (n/t)

Matrik August 17, 2011 07:40AM

The sleeping giant awakes, and it a RBW sword spec.... n/t

wishore August 17, 2011 08:08AM

Nevermind. Looked it up. Seems the big feed lot mass producers use grain as a supplement. (n/t)

Matrik August 17, 2011 07:38AM

The grain is also typically not consumable by humans. (n/t)

Artificial August 17, 2011 07:39AM

But if no cattle existed, people would grow other forms of grain more easily consumable.
