McDonalds has announced they are dropping their program testing plant-based meats because people didn’t like it.
As noted by the Washington Times, “other trials at Panda Express and Yum! Brands (KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut) have also ended without a subsequent product launch. Beyond Meat products at Dunkin’, Hardee’s, and A&W have been discontinued after launching.”
Apparently, American consumers do not want to eat fake meat; at least not fake meat made from plants.
Next up…. Bug meat.
Saw a Tweet , New South Wales gas station , cricket & worm snacks now on sale …. yum.
Keep it Klause.
Fish bait?
Klause should be.
Wouldn’t it be nice to see him pop up on Shark Week as chum.
Klause goes in the cage …… cage goes in the water , shark’s in the water – our shark ……
Quint
Even the sharks would spit him out
!!!
-🙏🏻
Coated with cheese dust.
The new Crikeetos!
Free market vs Master Planners.
I think all Master Planners start out as baiters.
Clever. “I USED to be an apprentice baiter, but then the old man retired, …” lol
Ick! Time to start reading the labels on all processed meat!
Processed anything! They are making chips!
Study up on latin and scientific terms for bug species.
Thats how they will diguise the bug content on food labels.
Thinking they will switch to a different language altogether. Newspeak would fit that bill.
Print in a cursive font and all will be well!
Well done. 👏
Good point. Sigh. 🙁
Cricket chips!
That’s a hard NO.
I feel the need to remind everyone what a hero Sundance is. Without his warnings, reports and analyses we’d be even more lost than we already are. He gives me hope.
Indeed. One suggestion. Don’t let the fake meat go to waste. Feed it to the sewer dwellers in DC. Bibs on, Mitch, Thune, McConnel, and Pelosi. Show us how it’s done.
Yes! A good leader always does things first. Out front and center. Eat away leaders of the pack.
Are you serious? This is the only site you know of to get any kind of idea what is really going on? What generation are you?
Only site I recognize as being 100% truthful and honest!! Entiendo?
Sundance is the reason why Treepers have enough meat and vegetables stockpiled to survive the next two years.
Where do you get that idea?! My comment didn’t express that. It just expressed gratitude for Sundance’s unique contribution and leadership.
Dittos!!!
Here! Here! Huzzah!!!
Just got back from the grocery store and I cannot believe how much “fake meat” is being pushed!
No, no, NO… I do not want your plant-based, preservative filled, tasteless, cardboard crap!!
Had a lovely tenderloin, medium rare, fresh off the grill for dinner last night and it was, as always wonderful!
Sorry Bill Gates, thanks but no thanks!!
The frozen food section where we shop always had the plant based stuff in a small section. They tried to increase the freezer space over the past few weeks and the stuff ended up freezer burned … as before.
Yep, at a store we frequent for deals on meat the plant based dogsh*t is now almost invisible aside real meats.
I am think about taking a felt marker in and quietly drawing a picture of a turd 💩on the package.
No real crime…just doing my bit for public health.
😂😂
Great idea, & write “I did that!” like the stickers on the gas station pumps.
I asked the cashier at the corner store if anyone ever bought the Beyond Meat Jerky. She said she’s sold one bag in six months.
My kid brought home a free bag. It went in the circular file!
Probably by accident.
No kidding. I had to suffer through Alpha Gal (tick disease) 18 months ago, and although I could eat chicken and turkey, I tried to find some fake meat to have when the fowl got boring. It was hard to find then and very expensive. Now, the shelves are exploding with plant based meat and cheese. The fake meat and cheese was terrible tasting by the way
I can’t eat dairy so I will happily eat “cheese” that is plant based, but I will NOT eat plant or bug based “meat”. Ever. Tofu is fine because you know it’s just soybeans. The other junk? A list of ingredients longer than your arm.
My rule is, if there are more than 5 ingredients (not including spices) I won’t eat it.
Ignore me if you want, but a lot of dairy allergies are due to the type of milk used in the dairy products. Most milk comes from Holstein cows, beautiful black and white creatures, and their milk has a particular protein (A1/A1). However, Jersey cows and Guernsey cows are typically A2/A2. Their protein is more digestible and many people with milk allergies can drink their milk, and milk products with little issue. My second child had a dairy allergy, so I’m familiar with milk allergies. Just something to research!
You can find a lot of small dairies around the country who produce strictly A2/A2 milk, and you can often buy their milk on farm. It’s not cheap milk, selling anywhere from $5-$7 a half gallon. Their milk is very high in butterfat (very good for you) and are coveted in many places for use in making fine butter and cheeses. Jersey milk is particularly sweet, fresh out of the cow. I have Jersey and Guernsey cows, so I did a lot of research before making that decision. Best decision I ever made.
My grandfather raised Guernseys for family consumption and sale to the public from 1910 until he retired. Needless to say, my mom was spoiled on the rich milk.
Do a deep dive on tofu, you may never eat it, again.
I will stick with saw palmetto..
I completely agree, about 20 years ago I read an article in “The Alternative Medicine” Magazine, don’t know if they still exist though, about the anti-nutrients in soy. Soon after I read & bought a copy of the book “The Whole Soy Story” by Kaayla T. Daniel.
https://www.westonaprice.org/book-reviews/the-whole-soy-story-by-kaayla-daniel/#gsc.tab=0
https://healthytraditions.com/collections/real-food-nutrition-books/products/book-the-whole-soy-story-by-kaayla-t-daniel-hbc
As a result, I have added soy to the list of ingredients for which I will pass on something…
I worked in a tofu factory in MA. Filthiest place I’ve ever seen! I wouldn’t eat that s**t at gunpoint!
Prices of plant “meat” have been dropping too.
While real meat prices still climb.
That is my observation here in California.
If you ever need to do that again try a portebello mushroom burger/sandwich. I was vegetarian for about 10 years (mostly in the 1990ies) and it satisfied any meat cravings when sautéed on the stove top
with a little balsamic vinegar, some cheese, mayo and whatever else you want to add.
And stick it on an onion roll! I had one at a Ren fair, and promptly began making my own.
But NOT (for me) as a meat replacement, I have always LOVED mushrooms.
Also “stuff” them (really just fill up the cap) with shrimp/crabmeat/avocado and motzerella, and stick under the broiler.
Yes, I guess technically its “veggie protien”, but for me its just “!MUSHROOMS!”
Last week Cracker Barrel made the same announcement.
However, there is one chain that will likely stay the course Golden Corral Buffet Restaurants have come up with a great theme … from our kitchen floor we always have more…
Also heard the I-Hop and Waffle House may try to camouflage the bugs as Blue Berries and Nuts … //s
I just saw a sales booth where they were promoting Cricket Waffles. :0 Yikes.
Yes I heard that Cracker Barrel is pushing fake meat. Ugh
” Cricket Barrel ” …. you know it’s coming , the next meme wave.
Doesn’t seem that the virtue signaling is of any benefit when very few people will actually buy their plant-based sausage. Or are there more vegetarians out there than I realize?
Is the Cracker Barrel menu getting ‘woke’? Meat eaters rage on Facebook over addition of Impossible sausage
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/cracker-barrel-menu-getting-woke-003846824.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
ewwwwwww!!!
Yes, they are. We saw it on their menu last Monday.
We had to be really careful ordering from the Cracker Barrel menu because they’ve mixed it in with all the other menu choices. Very sneaky.
Where’s the NOPE Meter? Definitely nope!
Are they serving them at the Senate cafeteria yet? 🙂
Cricket “Flour”.
Cricket Bars? Plant-Based Fake Meat? Venture Capitalists Are Eating This Stuff Up.
https://www.foodrepublic.com/2014/12/01/cricket-bars-plant-based-fake-meat-venture-capitalists-are-eating-this-stuff-up/
Cracker Barrel is getting blasted on line for it too
OMG…that is TOO RICH!!!
Bugs would be an improvement for Golden Corral.
Pick through its servings with a magnifying glass and you can probably see evidence of bug already included.
They tried to offer me a ToFu – Turkey , but I said nothing …….
How did “ToFu” get its name? The sound made the first time someone tasted it.
emphasis on the second sylable, as in “Foooo!” as they spit it out.
I’ve noticed the very expensive ‘plant based’ meat alternatives that were prominently displayed at grocery stores are now being moved to the clearance bins. It is possible to have a vegan diet without fake meat products. Probably the primary buyers of such products were parents of histrionic teen girls. Another type of buyer might be women living with a boyfriend they were trying to convert to a meat free lifestyle.
With the cost of all groceries escalating so quickly, such fads were short lived. The same will be true of bugs. Nobody except a few crazies will willingly eat bugs. Bugs will be consumed by starving people, not people buying take-out.
Lentils are great. Mom used to make a lentil stew when meat was too expensive (as it is again).
I actually had lentil “meatloaf” at a Seventh Day Adventist Hospital.
Seasoned as it was, supplemented with ketchup, the texture and taste was far superior than a similar soy based dish I sampled that even a lot of ketchup could not help!
.
Growing up, my mom’s farm-family used lentils quite a bit (1900s). She made lentil soup for us and used it in many stews. I really like them, but don’t know if I’d enjoy a burger/meatloaf made entirely of lentils. There’s nothing like homemade meatloaf, is there?
According to the propanda in the linked article, bugs are delicious! 😋
“In fact, it is estimated that around 2 billion people in 80 per cent of the world’s countries eat insects as a regular part of their diet – not because they have to, but because bugs are delicious. In many ways, it’s us Brits who are the weirdos.”
They don’t tell you it’s because they’re starving!
Or, that the same idiots writing that article, are the ones who just did a vogue cover article on the Zalenskis, and are just glad they aren’t writing about the Kardashians anymore.
Escargot and chocolate ants were considered delicacies in the 1950s and 1960. Some of my parents cosmopolitan friends indulged in such, so I have no doubt in some cultures certain bugs are a regular part of the diet. My point is that very few people in western culture will willingly switch to bugs.
The human diet should be vegetables primarily.
We need protein and fat from various sources…including animals.
I eat animal protein mainly with some veggies and fresh fruit for good measure.
Good.
Stop sugar from your diet.
The sugar from fruit is OK because it has fiber…so, whole fruit is OK…not fruit juice…that is pure sugar and not OK.
I have got rid of most of it since I am trying to adhere to a Keto diet, but there carbs lurking everywhere. All carbs turn to sugar in the gut
Yes,
That’s why you have to stick with vegetables and chicken, eggs, or fish.
Eat your biggest meal around noon.
Have a light dinner if you can.
Avoid sugar.
No Alcohol.
You will feel so much better in 1 month.
…because that’s what our species has always eaten. /s
Grocery store vegetables bear zero resemblance to humans’ historical diet.
We’re basically carnivores.
No.
Look in a mirror and open your mouth. What do you see?
Molars for grinding vegetables and only 2 incisors for the occasional meat…just like gorillas.
It’s good to see some fellow Vermonters showing up here at the treehouse. 🙂
Vermont reminds me of Scotland. Now back to our regularly scheduled programing! 🙂
https://www.westonaprice.org/
You need meat and animal fats and I don’t agree that the human diet should be vegetables primarily, but I do love vegetables. I think people should do a lot of research on Food because we’ve been lied to for decades and I believe that is why so many people are sick (pre-jab) at a young age. Our food system sucks. You and I probably agree on that.
Yes, I agree.
We have been lied to for decades.
We have been conditioned to treat symptoms with medical Rxs.
We have lost our way.
We have to stop treating symptoms.
We have to start treating patients once again.
We have to stop Sickcare and start Healthcare.
And…It starts with our food.
We should primarily be eating vegetables.
Respectfully, I call Bullshirt!
Whats this “should” and who (or WHO) detirmined it?
The nutrition experts are baffled, after studying the Kush tribe, a remote tribe that still live as hunter/gatherers.
Like other H/G tribes that have been studied (bush people of kalihari, etc) the Kush are quite healthy, with no sign of the chronic diseases of the west.
No artheriosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, etc.
Their diet; One of 3 kinds of meat, depending on availability (as they move to new area, they shift from baboon to gazelle, for instance) ONE squash or gourdlike vegetable, and honet they harvest from the stingless bees that build there hives in baobab trees; and thats IT.
They eat animals “horns to hoof” meaning they eat brains, hearts, livers, kidneys, etc.
According to nutritionists, they SHOULD be dead, but they are thriving.
So much for “the human diet SHOULD be vegetables, primarily” which is probably a quote from an “expert” nutritionist.
You answered your own question…They are Hunter/Gatherers.
They mostly gather…vegetables.
Have you tried to feed a tribe on a baboon…that’s like a big chicken wing…???
Diabetic here had high blood sugars until I began adding whipping cream to my coffee and changed to eat basically meats, seeds, nuts and fats. I lost 15 pounds and turned the food pyramid upside down. Now my blood sugars are in the normal range. I think everyone has their own body needs and should study their eating habits accordingly and not push their diet onto others. Anything white is bad for me. Rice, flour, oatmeal are the things I eat very sparingly..
How did they possibly think we’d all go for their great reset? They can stick their bugs up their butts! 🤬
Have to pull their heads out first.
They know we won’t go for the bugs as well as the vax mandates.
In my opinion, they want civil unrest so they can deploy the National Guard and then take the guns.
I can tell you from my contacts that they will simply not have enough Guardsmen to even attempt that except in a limited capacity in a few places at one time.
Would spread them too thin to do more than that particularly with their recruiting and retention issues going forward. Seems lots of people want nothing to do with the CRT, Trans indoctrination, and all of the Covid Vaxx mandates.
The mayor of DC justvhad her request for NG troops to assist DC in dealing with the flood of immigrants being bussedvin from the border,..was DENIED!
Austin declined the request, cause he said it would hurt “troop readiness”,…I assume that means they don’t HAVE the troops?
How sweet schedenfrude is!
Having been enlisted, I will interpret a plausible scenario.
Even if they requested volunteers, many of the joes would be conveniently unavailable. And many of their Sargeants would cover for their soldiers. It would result in an embarrassment to the chain of command, and they would know it.
Yup, the idiots are having troubles with their quota of enlistments. I can’t imagine why not, after all they mandated the vax, then let go of thousands that wouldn’t say yes, and a lot of them that did say yes are now dealing with adverse effects, the last 8 pages worth of a PDF from one of Pfizer’s data dumps.
Thought I had saved the link for it but can’t find it right now.
I think that’s where the blue helmets come in. I read UN (Chinese)
“Peacekeeping” soldiers are ready to deploy, hidden in plain sight, being imported in over the years. They will have no issue firing upon Americans as American soldiers did in Vietnam and elsewhere they’ve staged wars to “prevent communism”. Things are upside-down and bass ackwards now.
Agree
The vegan “beef” jerky at Giant is marked down to 75% off. Wonder why? 🤔🙄
Mmmmm mmm McBug & Cheese, please.
Would you like “surprise fries” with that? UGH. 😉
Yummy deep fried worm fries!!
Deep fried earthworms!! Yayy
Spot on! How to bug Micky D’S!!!!
And….we have barely begun telling them NO…HELL NO!
If they think we’re going to be pushovers, they’ll be in for a mighty big surprise .
It’s terrible for you. Bug protein has crap in it we can’t metabolize properly. You know who can? Birds.
And amphibians
Actually, I am setting up to eat LOTS of bugs,….after they have been properly processed, of coarse!
Processing consists of feeding them to fish, chickens, rabbits and pigs, which I then eat.
Yum!
Nah I’ll stick with beef and if I get desperate I’ll up my turkey intake. I won’t post here what they can do with that other bs.
FDA to announce ingredients no longer required to be listed in 3…2…1…
Was thinking exactly the same!
Would eliminate the original reason for their existence. Maybe then we can then get rid of an agency with no legitimate functions left to it.
NEVER had a legitimate function.
Outside of statutes enacted by Congress no explicit constitutional authority exists for it.
In that respect, you are correct.
However, at the time snake oil salesman were still a thing and an agency enforcing the appropriate labeling of the ingredients of consumer goods was seen as a desirable thing.
Hindsight applies as now we’ve come full circle except now the FDA approves things based on industry input. The actual effectiveness is not often a factor as their “research” is not commonly reproducible.
Snake oil salesmen still exist. See one Dr? Anthony Fauci!
Particularly since they allow imports with low standards and what we produce have to hit the best marks. Unfair and dangerous to our producers and consumers.
Nah, they’re just disguising the bug names. Better learn the Latin genus/species going forward. Something else that’s unpronouceable.
The one time I was happy to have a soy allergy because it meant no tofu or fake meat burgers here. Wonder what the name for cricket allergy is, might have to add it to the repertoire.
I read somewhere recently that if you have a shell-fish allergy(which includes shrimps prawns etc) you will be allergic to insects.
Love bay scallops and a good clam chowder, but they can keep the bugs, escargot included.
Serve crickets, kill your brand.
Glad I live with the Amish where real meat is plentiful.
Remember the urban legend that McDonald’s mixed worms in the burger meat?
The reason I stopped eating McDonald’s meat is because they buy the beef in Mexico.
Later I just stopped going there altogether.
No “fast food”.
They still do… it’s called mealworm
These people are insane.
“Mmmm”, bug meat, “you can’t eat just one”, “the bigger the better”. (Homer Simpson)
And when I was in high school we were horrified at hearing the supposed rumour that the cafeteria hamburger patties were liberally supplemented with oatmeal.
Yeah, good luck getting people who regularly got to McDonalds to eat Fake Meat of any kind.
The reason they’ve been going there -since the 60’s- is because they like MEAT.
Personally, I love some of the fake plant based plant “meats”. >>>> But I was NEVER a huge meat fan, since I was a kid, and never went to McD’s by choice. If I landed there w/ some family, I’d get fries and a shake. Period.
This is just silly.
McD’s ‘s got a long row to hoe trying to attract Vegetarians and Vegans who are even slightly interested in this stuff.
But here’s a hint for McD’s if they are gung ho on trying to go down this path: Check out the recipes that Chinese and other Asian countries use for fake meat. The Buddhists have nailed the Plant based “meat” thing after centuries of trying.
Western Fake Meat sucks!
Don’t kid yourself, they, fast food that serves meat, wants the vegan dollars.
They will find a way to make it palatable.
Well, fast food, except maybe Arby’s….”we got the meats”. Hard to fake a slice of turkey or roast beef…yet.
The vegans I know are tried and true, won’t eat cheese or other dairy.
There will be more flatulence from people eating crickets than from cows.
Well, just another good reason for human depopulation. /s
Last year the Golden Burro Cafe in leadville Co. was sold and has now gone totally vegan/plant based food, no more meat.
After being in business since 1938 serving the best breakfasts in town now the food not worth eating.
I expect Woke corporate managent of fast food chains to continue to inflict plant based food,introduce bug based foods and attempt to eliminate meat altogether.
McDonalds failure will only likely drive the Woke Corpses to work harder to force acceptance on the public.
Good luck with that!
What??? Really???
In Leadville??? WTF is going on in CO?
It’s becoming a mid-west portland.
Too many blue state escapees who brought their blue state ideologies with them after doing their part in destroying the state they left.
Destroying one state with their ideologies wasnt enough.
They should be made to stay in the places they destroy or better yet, deport them and drop them off in Central Africa where they can sample some real diversity they claim to worship and sample some real non-Western “Cultural Enrichment”
Leadville is full of whackjobs and other liberals.
It has some nice people but is turning into another Boulder or Aspen.
Much of rural Colorado is still very conservative, it is the city of Denver and these small liberal towns that are doing us in.
What is the difference between a Vegan and a Vegetarian Diet?
What is the difference between a Keto and a Paleo Diet?
What is whole food based eating?

Please stop listening to your government.
You can educate yourself for your health.
Please take your health into your own hands.
Thank you.
Someone posted a George Carlin video regarding words food and something else related to politics…oh immunity…yesterdays Open Thread…

Real food, real milk, real fats, real nutrition.
Most of my food is store bought and prepaired at home. I don’t need to eat beef everyday, nor poultry or pork.
Fish is a good alternative to the above, but I absolutely guarantee you…… I will never eat plant based meats or bugs.
What is plant based meat?
That steak you last had. The steer ate the plants and produced the meat that ended up in the store as a steak.
Very true Chrisf.
I think of that often as I watch our cattle graze in the fields.
They munch daily, all day, on the grass in the meadow.
They are very much a plant based meat in process.
All they ever eat is meadow grass in the summer and alfalfa hay in the winter.
Fake meat. Plants replacing meat seasoned so a vegan can be happy imagining he/she/it is enjoying the taste of real meat.
An authentic vegan or vegetarian should reject anything trying to immitate meat.
It is funny to me that people will work so hard to make something taste like meat.
Why do they want to make something taste like the thing that they are trying so hard to avoid eating in the first place.
Why are they not happy eating beans and vegetable’s in the first place instead of buying an expensive substitute for something they are trying to not eat.
Seems very un natural and phony.
Just eat the lentils and vegetables and leave the meat alone, if you are not a meat eater then why eat the pretend meat?
Total lack of common sense. As the Bible says, without God there is a lack of knowledge and wisdom. Boy, are we seeing that truth these days.
Supposedly, it is composed of vegetables or beans or lentils and then processed to look like meat. Lab grown meat is a different animal (do your own research) altogether.
The distinction is important.
“plant based meats” should be something made from vegetables, or beans, or lentils, but that’s not what they’re selling.
So, what are they selling?
So I can easily see protein from bugs being a staple of processed foods.
In short, if you don’t want to eat bugs stay away from processed food.
In short its probably healthier to avoid ALL processed food.
You have eaten lots of bugs.
Our short order cook used to say “extra protein…we won’t charge”.
The FDA guidelines allows a minute amont of bug in almost any processed food.
In mass production of food its practically unavoidable.
Cricket McNuggets anyone?
Delish when served with a worm based dipping sauce.
Yum!
Hmmm, what are they gonna do about Spam?
Label it truthfully?
Would you like Extra Slimey with those sir?
Just the slime, ma’am.
Just stop buying fast food and cook with unprocessed ingredients.
Not rocket science tbh
I saw this but don’t have the source : Many insects not only carry parasites , but humans just cant process or digest that kind of protein.
And people with shellfish allergies are likely to be allergic to many types of insects as well.
Indeed!
I tried Burger King’s Impossible Burger twice: dreadful! It really had no taste, and – I discovered later – is full of the worst vegetable fats.
They used to have Morningstar Veggie Burgers, made from vegetables and spices, all of which picked up their flame-broiled flavor and therefore had a great taste.
Discontinued!
I have not gone back for over 2 years as a result.
A lot of people are going to be allergic to cricket.
Doubt this stuff is Kosher, either.
Or Halal, too.
Heh, the food isnt designed with Muslims in mind.
If it came to a mandate or a law, they would be exempt.
Why it might even kill a few people in severe allergic reaction!
Imagine that!
I could never figure out cricket.
Hard pass.
The taxpayer is on the menu for the criminal Hegelian Dialectic political system. PDJT broke the Matrix for many of us.
No… I will not eat ze bugs.
We shouldn’t be surprised if one day soon Chik Fil-A is… CRIC Fil-A! Talk about business really HOPPING!
LOL
Nope, nope, nope. I refuse.
Disney has added plant-based options at nearly all their restaurants – so dozens of restaurants if not 100s.
So, plant based means…
Broccoli, potato, squash, bean, tomato, cucumber, etc.
What do you have against plants?
Eh, not concerned as long as meat is not entirely eliminated from the menu….or replaced by bugs…..or soylent green.
That may be a step too far, but not entirely far fetched as the NY Slimes, I believe, recently published a piece promoting that we embrace cannibalism.
What do you have against beef, chicken, pork, lamb?
Nothing.
I eat all of them.
I just think that Disney should be getting rid of sugar.
It’s an agenda not a lifestyle. They are onboard with pushing fake meat because the globalists are trying to eradicate animal agriculture not because they want to appeal to vegans.
Animal protein builds muscle mass and adds to average height. Animal fats are essential to brain growth in small children.
For most of human history, the elites denied the serfs animal protein when possible. It is also a form of government control and persecution. See the Pakistan Civil War and how malnourished Bangladeshis were vs the taller Caucasoid ethnicities in Western Pakistan due to the lack of animal proteins for the lesser ethnicities in East Pakistan.
Disney should be adding plant based options and getting rid of all of the sugar options.
There you go with “SHOULD” again.
People, in a free society SHOULD be able to eat whatever the hell they want, without self righteous, virtueless signalling *ssholes telling them what they “should” or “shouldn’t” eat.
Yes.
But, I walk in to any store and see the sugar pushed at the checkouts and the entire center of the stores.
I know that sugar is death.
They know that sugar is death.
Our government knows that sugar is death.
You know what Dutchman,
I say “Should” because I want to protect the children.
The children don’t know how bad sugar is.
I want to protect them from sugar.
Millenials have been trained accept all these indignities in the name of saving the planet.
I’m busy de-training my millennial offspring and subsequent generations. Real, whole, foods. Period.
Yes…..accept and embrace and attempt to inflict it on the rest of us.
“HOW DARE YOU!” 🤣🤣🤣
I was a vegan for 4 years and you will be surprised how healthy you can eat on that diet if you control the processed carbs and vegetable oils (olive and avocado are the only good ones)
Avoid gluten and sugar (Oreo cookies are vegan)
I have a local grass fed cod now in my freezer – local eggs and fish and free range chickens you are set!
Stay healthy!
They can make whatever shit they want just don’t buy it. It’s not like the beef you’ve been buying at fast food is healthy- it’s not
Grain fed beef fattens up the cow but it contains way too many Omega 6 vs 3
Wean off this shit permanently
Many Vegans lack B12.
You don’t get it from your diet and lack of it causes dementia.
Vegans have to take a B12 supplement and they should insist that their primary cares check their B12 blood levels…because sometimes, you don’t absorb enough through the GI tract and need B12 Shots.
Easier to eat a steak
Not necessarily.
Many people are put on H2 blockers or proton pump inhibitors or take OTC antacids and that increases the pH of their stomach.
You need a low stomach pH to absorb B12.
So, you can eat all the steak that you want, and you will still look like a Mad Cow if your stomach pH is too high to absorb B12.
Agree for those who truly have B12 deficiency unrelated to diet. I was replying to going vegan and needing to be monitored for diet related B12 deficiency, easier to eat red meat.
No.
Insist that your doctor checks your blood B12 levels.
In fact, we should all do that and check your DDimer levels as well.
I avoid doctors!
IIRC, humans don’t absorb b vitamins from the food we eat, we get it from a bacteria that lives in our long intestine.
It ‘eats’ fiber, which our digestive system doesn’t digest, and this bacteria er, excretes as a ‘waste product’ b vitamins.
Hence, antibiotics CAN kill off this bacteria, (so can chronic alcoholism, bouts of major illness, etc) which can lead to a loss of these bacteria.
In addition to B12, folic acid is essential, as it keeps homocystien levels near -0-. Homocystien, not Cholesterol, is the main cause of artheriosclerosis.
No.
We get it from food.
There is a sublingual version.
There is a subdermal shot version.
You might need to check your level…depletion leads to dementia.
true
Also stay away from grain finished, needs to be grass fed the entire time.
While I am not considered a “survivalist” by any stretch of the imagination, the ingestion of bugs and grubs as a source of nourishment if lost in the woods is an option. But I have enough skills to capture other sources of more desirable proteins first though. 😀
I work for one of Rentokil’s acquisitions. I work in pest control and today I helped on my first Bedbug Heat Treatment. 120 degrees is lethal to bedbugs, 125 for the eggs. Once the temp hits lethal, we keep it there for four hours.
There were definitely a couple few burgers worth of dead bedbugs afterwards, already cooked!
Remember the potato chips fried in ” Fake Fats ” ( O’Lean ? ) , caused nasty gut discomfort ?
They have been at this 20 years or longer.
Years ago, McDonalds got in big trouble for keeping it secret that they were “supplementing” their burgers with Australian possum and oatmeal. That was when they had just the arches and they were all walk-up service windows. Haven’t been back since. If they are willing to serve you garbage once; they’ll do it again; AND THEY DID!
BUGS IN MY MOUTH & TUMMY?
JUST NO.
Bill Gates & Co. YOU’RE OUT!
They are already working on the ads…
Big Mac ——- Bug Mac
Burger King ————— Bugger King
Always fresh never frozen Potato Bugs…
I thought Pete was already crowned “Bugger King”?
Maybe he can be their new spokesmodel, if his husband agrees?
I can’t vouch for this but it’s from America’s FrontLine Doctors who I trust. The vast majority of medical bureaucracies laud chitin’s protein value!! So eat up and get back to me in say 10 years.

If you do a little research into lab grown meats, you will discover things you never wanted to know. Focus on the cell lines used, vomit, repeat. Not all fake meat is plant based. I have no problem with making a vegetarian burger, or black bean fudge brownies! That’s not what they’re selling. They’ve put millions and probably billions into growing artificial foods in giant “factories”. It’s all about control and money. I can just see the future filled with sick and dying people all because a small group of “elites” wanted to play God.
Regarding the bugs, no way in hell. Thankfully, eliminating Genetically Modified and processed foods from my pantry will enable me to not even notice when the chips are full of crickets. My chickens can eat the crickets and other bugs and be happy. I’m a human being. Why would anyone even trust them to make food after all the damage they’ve done??
Exactly…
That’s why we should be eating a whole foods vegetable based diet.
See the food.
Buy the food.
Cook the Food.
Eat the food.
You know what’s in it and it’s good for you.
NO!
