    I don’t know if vegetables feel pain when you eat them, but I kind of hope they do.

      Fava beans with a nice Chianti, perhaps?

        How about a Tofu burger Vegans?

          Or, you know, they can just have Beyond Meat or the Impossible Burger cooked so that it meets their specs. No sense in tofu. What don’t you understand?

          Ever tried a Beyond Burger, Agent? Or an Impossible Burger? They are actually quite good. Due to my diet restrictions, I can’t eat meat as often as I used to. It’s nice to have this alternative because before this, the option was black bean burgers which turn out like hockey pucks. Beyond Meat is an account I quoted years ago and I was intrigued. I was happy when they entered the marketplace here in Iowa a couple years back. Admittedly a bit pricey, but they make a tasty product. Kudos to them! And, kudos to Vegans if that’s how they want to live. To each their own, right Agent?

            Stop eating us plants and other vegetation or you’ll not get enough oxygen from our processing of CO2! Same thing for your Global Warming Hoax efforts to reduce CO2 we need to survive and produce Oxygen for you to survive!

            Plant a tree, a shrub, a vegetable garden, and keep your proposed carbon tax payments for whatever you normally buy with it.

            UNPROVEN STATEMENT ALERT
            You can keep calling global warming a hoax, it just shows how ignorant you are. The republican line of “man made climate change” being a hoax is an evolution of five years ago your party pretending climate change wasn’t real at ALL. We know the opposite is true. We know your party is lying about it to keep profits high. You are not credible.

            Unproven statement alert, you really are rich.

            He doesn’t have to prove that climate change is fake. You have to prove it’s real, and to what extent.

            You and the left misrepresent the science community on that front (to what extent). You are not on the side of science.

            100% of the **ACCURATE** peer reviewed, published studies on climate change are in agreement that climate change is real and accelerated by humans. EVERY SINGLE published study of dissent since has been found to be inaccurate in their calculations and representations.

            Remember, the important thing to note – 100% of peer reviewed, published studies in scientific journals agree. If there is a scientist out there that can prove otherwise, they should get peer reviewed, and then published.

          A personal attack is a ‘joke’? But of course. You’re a liberal. No wonder I didn’t get your ‘joke’. Nobody else did either.

          Oh, Craig, new year and you still believe you can get a rise out of me. You would know a lot about personal attacks, though. It’s a tactic you employ often out here. My comment was to the fact that chris is obviously not a Vegan, and so a Vegan watching him eat whatever animal he is eating might be a nightmare for a Vegan. Odd I have to explain these jokes, but that’s okay. I’m here to help!

          Keep trying buddy, one of these days you might make the squad. 364 more days until hockey tryouts!

          Vegans have a rep for a reason, the same cannot be said of Chris.

          People saying they are tired of Vegan rants does not make them the opposite but equal side of a coin. They are the reactive side.

          I have known vegans, and I have not known one who does not claim their diet is better than yours, they are better than you, or who does not have a superiority complex, and they make it known to everyone every time they eat.

          I have a very good diet, a vegan diet for a body builder is simply inferior. Plant protein and soy protein cannot give you all that you need compared to a non vegan diet, and for men, if you start relying on plant protein it is harder to digest in the amounts you need (160 to 200 grams per day) or, causes higher estrogen levels in the case of soy.

          Yet the body building war on this is insane. Nearly every Vegan health enthusiast consistently degrades body builders, and the whole community has pretty much gone to war with vegans in retaliation.

          Every community the vegans go into they just shout loud, call everyone wrong, and say their diet is perfect and better than eating normally, or, even claim eating Vegan is the only normal, and give some paleo style argument on it as to why it would be the natural diet for humans, blah blah.

          If vegans would go by “to each their own” Chris wouldn’t be complaining, but they don’t.

          And I’ll say this, as most body builders do, a vegan burger is a staple go to food, provided it is a plant based protein.

          If you vary your proteins, and limit soy, plant protein is excellent. You want casein protein from milk, as well as whey from milk, as well as eggs, nuts, cheese, steak, chicken, and seafood. You want a VERY varied diet for protein sources, and carb sources.

          A vegan style diet is just factually worse than a diverse diet with all the sources. This is what makes it so insanely infuriating when a mouthy vegan comes in. No body builder limits or refuses to eat vegan food.

          Vegan cookies are among the most healthy, and moist, and consistently have potato starch, which is good in moderation, as well as almond flour, which is really good, and is excellent for the diet. Vegan burgers have excellent plan protein levels, and are delicious.

          The pious attitude of vegans is nearly always either I am better because I save animals, or, for some magic reason try to explain why dietary restrictions on items above is better for health (it simply isn’t, especially for a body builder, dietary expansions are the best option, eat what is good for you, make a list of what is good, not a cliché list of what is bad in the form of blanket sweeps of animal fats and milk fats, it’s patently absurd).

          I should add I said in moderation on potato starch, because a big problem with a vegan diet is trying to make sure you are not getting too much plant protein, making sure you don’t have heck of high fats from said plant proteins, and that most forms of desserts are heavy in potato starch in some form. In excess, it causes diabetes or similar issues.

          A one size diet doesn’t work, veganism isn’t necessarily worse than any other fad, like atkins though.

          They all cause severe issues because of what you restrict.

          Carbs are needed. There are good carbs, there are bad carbs.

          These vegan diets are harmful to balanced diets. That balance of healthy fats is not as easy with a vegan diet, there is no reason to avoid the fatty oils and omega 3s from say sushi and cream cheese which is delicious and healthy in moderation (the cheese in it).

          I am a master with diet…It’s why my body building goes so well.

            i’m kind of the opposite of a body builder, more of a “sedentarian” (join the NON-Movement!). I find that eating pretty much whatever I want and moving as little as possible helps contribute in my quest to have the Ultimate Dad Bod. I lead a fairly slovenly existence, but I’m a heckuva nice guy so I got that goin’ for me.

    a bit off topic, but I feel comfortable enough admitting to all of you:

    I was the “after” body double for Jason Momoa in that commercial in last night’s Super Bowl. It seemed kind of humiliating at first, but $50 is $50.

    The burger isn’t coated in meat stuff; it’s just pink slime. Loved by mothers everywhere.

    I don’t know the advertising – if BK were pushing this as “vegan” then I’d see a point. If it were advertising as anything else – “impossible,” vegetarian, green, humane, etc. and NOT vegan, they got no case.

        Every restaurant should have a sign saying we reserve the right not to provide any Vegan meals.
