  • I'd like to think that eating meat responsibly is all about balance/moderation.

    I think we've gone too extreme in our diets, meat-focussed and sugar-focussed. They are easy filling calories.

    Michael Pollan's writing on this subject is always reasonable: "a little bit of everything, but mostly veg". I think you're never going to get the average person to cut down in an extreme way (veganism, 100% veggie) -- so it has to be about balance. People's livelihoods depend on meat farming but we just can't do too much of it.

  • "The Omnivore's Dilemma" is good on the scandal that's the US corn industry and the industrialisation of meat production.

  • Where is the balencing point in taking a life away from an innocent and defenceless sentient animal? Not trolling.. I just don’t get that logic
