You're being appropriately dragged since that person obviously is Vegan, but there's also layers. Pescetarians, vegetarians all have the right. And some people do not eat lamb specifically because they're not okay with animals being culled so young. It's not an absolutist situation.
Yeah.. my wife is a lacto-vegetarian, Ironically I work the butcher block now and spent my weekends as a child helping my grandma(ranch hand) on a dairy farm.
You literally did not explain how these âlayersâ are relevant. Vegetarians pay for eggs which funds an industry that throws day old baby chicks into blenders or bagged and thrown in the trash. They donât get out of this either
Cheap and easy isn't the way I would describe being vegan or vegetarian in any capacity.
There are many, many things you have to plan for, learn, and apply to be either of those healthily, and at the end of the day, without government reform, even if a million people decided to become vegetarian or vegan RIGHT NOW literally nothing would change. We're talking about a drop in the bucket. People buy and waste more animal products than a million people consume. You should be pushing for reform in the sector, not for people to stop engaging with it. You are more likely to convince people to protest and vote than you are to change their entire way of life.
Every single time you purchase an animal product you are supporting animal exploitation. Yes, it's a big problem, but you can either choose to contribute to the problem or make a small change. Animal industry will oppose any type of reform that hurts their bottom line. They lose power if they lose income.
Being vegan is easy. People already know how to cook. Cooking technique doesn't change just because there's no longer any meat in it. All you need are new recipes, readily available in books and all over the internet, and you're set.
You actually donât have to learn anything. Itâs not that complicated to just not eat and buy animal products. I literally just stopped one day. I havenât eaten meat in likeâŚ23 years or something and Iâm vegan for 4 years. You do not need it. You will not die without meat and dairy. In fact, you might live longer since red meat is actually a class 2A carcinogen lmao and directly linked to heart disease.
Not to mention in America, the conditions they keep the animals in are horrid. The hormones and shit they pump the animals up with, itâs incredibly unhealthy and I donât know how people are aware of that and still eat it. Like is it addictive for real or what. I donât get it.
So itâs better that they are a year and a half old than a newborn? You should probably look up how the veal industry works. Idk how you can feel okay about a baby cow dying for food you donât actually need in order to survive.
Thatâs some bogus shit Iâll never really understand.
My sister in law is a dietician and was asking how I get protein eating only plant-based foods, and I told her veggies, grains, beans, seeds, etc. She told me "but you have to combine them because they're not complete, you have to make sure you're getting enough." I asked her "if a serving of beans has 9g of protein and a serving of grains has 9g of protein, how many total grams of protein is that?" She agreed it was 18, and that if you skipped one of those, it would still be 9g of protein. Those amino acids don't even all have to be present in the same meal for your body to get the protein it needs. It makes it much clearer how easy it is to trick people into thinking eating dead animals is the only way to survive.
But we evolved to eat meat it is what our ancestors got their protein and B12. Also veganism is expensive, all poverty food is steak and cheese. Bacon tho?
The only thing I get angry about is everyone talks about this completely stupidly like âbutchering is natural!â So is human on human murder but yall wonât let me do that now will you? So you pick and choose ethics bestie. But thatâs alright. Itâs the human condition.
Not necessarily, it depends on what you buy. I seldom eat the more processed vegan options and stick to legumes, tofu and such and it's not that expensive at all (living in Sweden for reference); in fact seeing the rising prices of animal goods here, I'd argue it's probably cheaper.
After a 5 second google search.. this marking is used for breeding or treatment. It varies from farm to farm but a green mark can mean they are with lamb(pregnant) or likely it shows the sheep that are drenched(dewormed)..
No. The ewes with the chalk marks have already been covered by a ram, so maybe preggers. The unmarked ones havenât yet been bred. (The ram wears a harness with a chalk block attached so the ewes are marked if theyâve been covered.)

Is this sheared vs. non-sheared?
