Cory Booker says meat-centric ‘Standard American Diet’ not sustainable

A bumper sticker I recently saw said:

Vegan is an old Native American word for "bad hunter."

OMG, that is hilarious!

Yes. Because cows will *literally destroy* the planet.

This is actually not a controversial statement. He didn't say he was going to legislate veganism -- the OP just made that up -- he said we have to consider policies to reduce our consumption of so much meat.

You don't seem very bright.

We will never win at this rate.

Very true, and I'm an independent observing the candidates who will be running for president. I almost feel sorry for you guys.

Ok school me. What other politicians have legislated food policy to America? Besides Michelle Obama’s unpopular and gross school lunch program?

So healthy foods are gross? Do you know what percentage of a heinz ketchup bottle is sugar? Hint, about 1/2.

That's not the point. The point is free people are able to make free choices about what they eat. The government may advocate for certain lifestyles that they believe is more healthy, but they should not plan on enforcing what people can or can't eat through law.

Who pays for school lunches for people on SNAP?

Should we also legislate activities that increase the likelihood of getting AIDS or STDs?

A plant based, low protein diet has been shown to reduce both brain size and IQ in adults who maintained this diet during childhood and adolescence.

Now dems want to make it mandatory for everyone.


Can't beat the opposition in the arena of ideas? Then force a dumb-diet on them, and bring them down to your level.

Great.

Yes. Legislate sexual activity. Any activity that adds cost and risk to human life.

I have a vegan friend who was raising her kids vegan - until the oldest boy hit adolescence. Then his energy level and grades plummeted. She finally listened to her doctor who told her to make sure the kids were eating MEAT. The difference in the boy's demeanor was a complete 180. His body was crying out for animal protein. Thank goodness my friend and her husband respected that and allowed him to start making his own food choices.

Good, then bury your head in the sand and do nothing. And remember your shitty +1s when things really start to go downhill for us. I will never understand people like you.
