Vegan is gendered jeremycherfas.net

@jeremycherfas without prehistoric ancestors’ consumption of meat, we wouldn’t have the brains to have ethical issues with food, or this discussion…

@cn Good point, well made. But we’ve outgrown those petty needs, haven’t we? Except for the palaeo eaters, who are, well, palaeolithic, right?

@jeremycherfas is one really paleo if one isn't using an atlatl and chasing the next meal down on the savannah? 😬

@jeremycherfas I’d like to give up‡ cow–based produce, since that’s amongst the least resource–efficient ways of producing food; plus beef is possibly something that I’m starting to disagree with maxillofacially (‡ reduce consumption of)

@eli You tell me :shrug

@cn Cow based product is wonderfully efficient if it is in turn based on green grass.

@jeremycherfas efficiencies of land area, water use and such?

Milk substitution with say almond–based fluid has a high water cost too?

@jeremycherfas are there past “eat this” episodes pertinent to these issues?

@eli No one expects the atlatl!

@cn Milk substitution is environmentally indefensible.

@cn There were two on grass fed beef. I need to do a much better job of surfacing things. One was about freezing good beef, the other more directly about grass fed.

@cn I have a biggie on milk in the works.

Also came across the SPAM episode…

@cn Those are they! The Spam thing was huge fun, made originally for R4.
