Vegetarians - the people equivalent of grass fed beef?

If so, what does that make vegans? Organic? Discuss please.

I ate a vegan once, she was very tasty!

But I did not notice she was any better because of the veganism...

kind of seems like a political post in the first place. the subject line itself is attacking vegetarians, but that is ok, quoting peta, not ok.

interesting.

I am in no way attacking vegetarians. Nor will i share my thoughts on PETA, as that will get me banned.

Vegetarians tend to have lower fat content than non,
as grass fed beef has lower fat content than corn fed.

I like the corn fed variety of the female gender. They are mainly raised in the midwest.

It's sad that the peopleoes were nearly wiped out but they are making a comeback.

I'm glad we have vegetarians...leaves more beef for me.

What's your beef, Fred?

And let's not forget those famous words of wisdom made famous by Clara Peller:

I wonder if Soylent Green comes in bacon flavor?

Cows-humans are the perfect example of s symbiotic relationship. They are an evolutionary success story thanks to their interrelationship with humans. There are no wild cows (aurochs were the ancestors of modern cows). Without humans to eat them they would become extinct.

Of course that is still no reason to keep them in terrible comditions, standing in their own filth, feeding them corn which they are not adapted to eat, and filling them with antibiotics to keep them from getting sick from eating the corn.

No wild cows? There's all kinds of wild cows out in this country. Some have been rounded-up that haven't been seen in three years! As for standing in their own filth, I've been to several feed-lots and haven't seen what a lot of folks complain about. Sure, in the rainy season it might be different. There are unscrupulous people in any line of work. I've seen what cattle are fed in feed-lots and it's not just corn. Most of the feed is a mix of alfalfa, grains and added minerals. The interesting thing about ruminants is their digestive system. I've seen cattle eat prickly pear cactus, mesquite beans and plastic bags that folks like to toss-out. They're pretty tough critters. The sad part of the meat industry is how some organizations look for the worst conditions in some 'outlaw' plant then twist that to give the impression the whole industry is cruel and in-humane. It's not fair to the honest, hard-working cattle raisers.

I think the purpose of the antibiotics is to speed up weight gain, a curious side effect of the drugs. I think it is a bad idea, too. It's a great way to develop superbugs.

Although I have many friends who have gone veggie over the years, many have come back to eating all kinds of meat, and felt much better for it. Any physical anthropologist will tell you that humans are built to be omnivores, the old "see food" diet.

I like meat. I eat lots of it. I've never seen a sleek cow, or a rotund panther. Hmm, bacon sounds good right now.

Beef burgers are political? They taste pretty good to me.

Last time I was in Wyoming, they had signs posted as you entered the state... EAT MORE BEEF! I like their thinking! Nothin better' than a good, greezy burger, a nice prime rib, filet mignon or porterhouse!

Just spending some time in Southern California and have heard some pretty odd requests / demands / insults at local restaurants.

I'm thinking that something which eats only grass would be vegan, not vegetarian???

Wouldn't we need to raise a grain fed human , then cook them both to compare?
