    It is undeniable that the current system for producing chicken in supermarkets often involves conditions that cause suffering. The chickens themselves endure hardship, the workers involved in the process face challenging circumstances, and consumers find themselves with limited choices for affordable nourishment. Seek alternatives like supporting local farmers who prioritize ethical practices, or explor other sources of protein. This is not merely a matter of personal preference, but a reflection of our interconnectedness and a step towards lessening harm. 🙏

        An overconsumption of only soy-based products can’t be good either.

        The cited source is a pro-vegetarianism site. That doesn’t seem like the most objective of sources to cover this research.

          Where are you getting overconsumption and why “soy only”?

          Like… Thats not the bulk of vegan food. Are you aware that more options than processed fake meat exist?

          Also 300g of chicken would hardly classify as overconsumption would it?

                I have learned of two new foods that I can’t wait to try in this thread!

                  with tofu (especially plain soy tofu) the key is the seasoning. Think of it a bit like you would chicken. Marinate it, make a rub, add a sauce… By itself its pretty plain and some people hate what flavour it does have, but it acts like a sponge for seasoning.

                  Similarly, another incredible protein is Seitan. Basically pure gluten from washing out flour (you can also just get gluten powder to save like an hour of work)
                  Makes for really good meat imitate especially when folded/braided into different textures.

                  I’m just writing it assuming someone who has no idea reads this, you did sound like you know veg foods in general.

          Overconsumption of only anything can’t be good.

          Woah you made alot of jumps to get to an anti-vegatarian perspective lol.

          Maybe just accept veggies are healthier than meat? It’s not a radical idea and factually proven.

      Right? I mean it is all dead carcasses, they just apply learned disconnect behavior. Tell them to eat a dog, and they lose their f’cking minds. No difference.

        Man, I still eat some meat (will fully stop some day), and that disconnect is crazy among the people who don’t really think critically about what they eat. I got on a rant about how south Korea shouldn’t have to make eating dogs illegal if we’re still gonna slaughter thousands of pigs per day, and everyone looked at me like I was nuts.

          Exactly! Years of programming, of teaching them “this” is not like “that.” Sorry, Blanch, but it is. huh.
