    Interesting. What sort of medical conditions require eating meat?

      I have IBS, GERD, anemia, & food allergies. I’ve seen medical professionals over the years and their recommendation is to eat anything & everything I can that won’t make me sick. I pretty much eat the same thing nearly everyday & most vegan protein sources make me sick.

        That sucks and is a pretty common “gotcha” to justify the continued mistreatment and murder of animals. Lucky for you you were born the right kind of animal whose comfort and life in general somehow out weighs your dinner’s.

        From a nutrients stand point you can get all that from non meat sources.

            Why are nuts and beans disqualified from being protein sources?

              I didn’t say they were. I’m asking what else is a source of it.

              Nut allergies are a real thing that can kill people though

                Nut allergies can indeed kill people. It’s just so weird that whenever meat eating comes up it’s always met with these same “arguments”. You can eat whatever you want. I can’t change someone’s mind with facts or answers to questions or anything when that person doesn’t want facts or answers. If you can know how animals are mistreated for you to have a burger or eggs and live with yourself, your diet is the least of your problems.
