I love beef and steaks and beef tacos and beef all the things.
But I would support vegans weaponizing this.
Same, I wonder how quickly the beef industry will come up with a vaccine.
It would be hilarious to see the mental gymnastics of anti-vaxxers being okay with ONLY this vaccine
They’d be like “I’d rather be autistic than vegan, worth it”
Audibly laughed at this, thank you. That's 100% what they'll do. They'll fly flags outside their house with that slogan.
If suddenly beef wasn't an option, I think beef substitutes like quorn and stuff would start getting real good real fast
They're already perfectly good! I got the quorn nuggets for free one time, and I enjoyed them. Sometimes I get the beyond beef burgers, and while they're a little tricky to cook (no built-in fat) they still come out delicious. I've switched to buying oat milk because it lasts longer.
The problem is they're more expensive than the animal products. And that's because of government subsidies on the animal products. Take that money, put it on the alternatives to make them equal in price, and you'll see a lot more people switch.
Noooo! Not tacos!
I ask only þat þey start in the middle of þe country and work þeir way out.
I heard chicken tacos are all the rage right now.
Ima just give up tacos if it comes to þat.
Eventually, vegans will also breed and weaponize a poultry allergy mosquito, and a ham allergy wasp. It's þe bacon allergy ant I'm really dreading, þough.
