The American bison is the new U.S. national mammal, but its slaughter was once seen as a way to starve Native Americans into submission.
https://www.theatlantic.com/national/arc....../482349/ That is one way of stopping people from eating meat.

Beyond Meat’s shares surge 163% in the first day of trading - and they are still going up:

I would not eat one of those things even in an ice age. If they look like the real thing, then I would not eat the real thing either.

Does the mouse make the cat feel sick via spirit powers? Chickens and Foxes?
The answer is, of course, only if the Cat and Fox are white.

Everybody in the mystery knows that the body magically transforms food into thought, which can affect the spirit. Little green men - have you seen one?

Interesting video on the "science" of the Impossible Burger, they seem to have done more homework than anyone here realizes (including myself).
Like ... they use digital something to analyze the flavors in a hamburger, and then they use computers to go through their database of plant flavors so they can get the exact flavors they need to taste the most like animal beef. I think they refer to it as a digital fingerprint for flavor by analyzing the aromas, better just watch the video and let them explain it. It certainly doesn't make me want to eat one, this is obviously a product that is not being marketed to vegans (which must be why they want it on the animal meat shelf at the grocery store, not the vegan meat shelf). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nIiLqNQOgPA -JoeJoe

You mean vegans want their veggies to look, feel, smell and taste like a dead animal? Interesting.

They want to make a plant-based hamburger that tastes better than animal-meat, which is why their products are not in the "vegan" isle but rather in the beef isle of the grocery store. And from what I see in this video, they can pretty easily figure out how to make plants taste like whatever they want. That is what the animals do, they take "grass" and turn it into "beef" ... so there is no reason a scientist can't do the same thing, and because they are not bound by the static digestive track of a cow, the potential to make it taste better is there. But we vegans ... we want "whole food", not processed junk food - which is pretty much what any "Whooper" is. -JoeJoe

Meanwhile ... KFC launches a four-month test of a vegan chicken sandwich in the UK and sells out in only four days. That looks better than the Whopper, but I wouldn't want to eat one of them either.
https://vegnews.com/2019/6/vegan-kfc-bur......our-days Their CEO once said they would never sell a vegan chicken sandwich ... never say never. It is becoming very obvious to the restaurant industry that in the future if you don't have a vegan option on the menu, you will end up going out of business. It is about already like that in the UK. -JoeJoe

PETA has declared it is impossible for them to get behind the Impossible Burger for one reason (I just found this out myself) ... the burger was tested on rats that were killed. Which explains why it is not labeled as "vegan", but rather "plant based". This is NOT a "vegan" burger by any stretch of the imagination ... it was not designed to taste good to vegans, but rather ... to taste good to animal eaters. Hope you enjoy it, but I will not be dining with you. https://www.peta.org/blog/why-it-is-impo......-burger/ -JoeJoe

You're off your rocker? If I want dead plants, I eat them. If I want dead animals. I eat them. I have no hang ups about either.
I don't need specialty items. I would never eat "plant based, artificial meat" If you think veggie burgers and veggie dogs are for meat eaters, well you're delusional. |

If you think veggie burgers and veggie dogs are for meat eaters, well you're delusional. Watch the video I just posted and learn something new. The company's objective is not to make a "vegan" burger, but rather to make a plant-based burger that tastes better than beef ... and with the type of technology they are unleashing in that video they are very much capable of doing so. Where do cows get beef from?? Grass. If a cow can make a plant taste like beef, so can a scientist that has the right technology. Delusional ... no ... if it is possible to make something taste better than beef, people will eat it. You won't know if you like it or not until after you have tasted it, and until you have tasted it you do not know if you like it or not. -JoeJoe

"that tastes better than beef"
Even better than beef? Are you implying that beef tastes good? I thought it was vile rotting death? Surely they don't need to put in an effort to achieve this. Wouldnt a scoop of old composted corn husks be sufficient? |
