Buying a farm is not an option for me, unless you are
gifting me one or something. You say "widely available
products...those include certain kinds of meat" What
non-meat products do you refer to that lower cds? Brand
names please so we can all do the best we can.

By the way, it's just ridiculous to suggest to a
vegatarian or vegan that they eat meat. The
intentional death is both more in-your-face and
the health risks are unacceptable

Ew, there's that evil, evil weed again. Reefer Madness
anyone?

Get it right. I mentioned that hempseed oil contains omegas 3, 6 and 9.
You trolls jumped on and exaggerated my including of 6 in there.

If every meateater switched to your 'better' meats, and did not
reduce their consumption, then the above game would go extinct
and the 'grassfed' herds would barely supply anyone else. Face
it, the commercial meat industry supplies most meat eaters, and
as far as the cds you're fond of mentioning, the amount is many,
many timesfold.

What's your point? That vegans should balance their meals?
Well, meateaters have to do that too, so what's your point?

Ooo, a little mad are you? Stop telling vegans what they should
be doing. You're no expert. You're not even vegan, so what
are you doing?!?!
