[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I think that if you're comparing unprocessed or minimally processed poultry to unprocessed or minimally processed plants (e.g. a chicken breast cooked at home vs. a homemade black bean burger with avocado) then maybe the plant choice is a small bit healthier.[b] But if you're comparing unprocessed or minimally processed poultry to highly processed plants (e.g. a chicken breast cooked at home vs. a vegetarian chik'n patty) then I'd say the chicken breast is healthier unless you're not getting any minimally or unprocessed plants at all.[/b][/quote]

This. Eating a higher fat vegetarian option IMO is if you have an ethical or environmental reason to want to avoid eating meat. The healthiest option would be a vegetarian choice that was not processed--a mushroom burger, homemade quinoa and veggie sandwich, etc.[/quote]

Ummm, no, most of this high-preaching veganism is not healthier, not here. In developing countries, sure, but not here. In India, where vegetarians can't afford your hoity-toity vegan superfoods, sure, in Tanzania, where their staples are rice and beans, sure. 
You take your fake meat, milk, avocados, almond flour, and acai and shove it where the sun does not shine. You do not care that farmers in Mexico are now fighting organized crime to protect their income. You don't care that kids are dying picking your acai and that more and more acai trees are planted, which will affect the source of our oxygen due to the elimination of biodiversity in the Amazon. You don't care that trillions of bees are dying, so you can drink fake milk. I ask you to shut up about your moral superiority; BCS, you have no ethics at all. Protest how we raise our animals; those practices should be eradicated for sure, but so should the practices you endorse.[/quote]
