Epicurious Goes Woke: Halts beef recipes to be more "Pro-Planet"

[Tiny]

I am trying to eat more of a plant based diet, because it's healthier, and, more importantly because cows fart. And pigs fart. And chickens fart. And even fish make bubbly little farts. And my beloved, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, wants to stop greenhouse gas emissions from livestock. Yes, I often yearn for a hamburger or ribs, or a ribeye steak. Medium rare. But true love is more important than the temporary high you get from consuming lots of animal fat. You have to make sacrifices for your significant other. And while I haven't met her yet, I'm laying the groundwork for a successful relationship, starting with my diet.


AOC explains why ‘farting cows’ were considered in Green New Deal

Well, I have to play the long game with Alexandria, because I intend to breed with her. She's going to be my baby momma.

But if you're just looking to get laid, the secret is to play along and PRETEND you're a vegetarian. Just tell your date that she doesn't smell like other women, who give off a rancid odor because they're carnivores. And if you get to first base be sure and tell her you're so thankful she's a vegetarian, because the last time you kissed a meat eater you puked.

Usually that will get her guard down and you can have your way with her.

If I wanted to get pussy through effort or deception, I wouldn't be on a whoreboard.

Any poontang is good poontang, regardless of how you get it. Well, there are exceptions, maybe you want to stay away from diseased and smelly vaginas.

I think you should look to the Animal Kingdom. Vegetarians are usually the hunted, Carnivores are the hunters. Which one do you want to be?

"I think you should look to the Animal Kingdom. Vegetarians are usually the hunted, Carnivores are the hunters. Which one do you want to be?"

Good point, except that, in general, the animal kingdom doesn't have the same rules of conduct as modern humans. The cave man went extinct eons ago.

human rules of conduct are neither uniform nor a static thing, they change constantly.

What I don't approve of is what some are calling the "pussification" of western society. I call it the "taming" or "conversion" of the common western men back into prey-animal like serfs.

Religious or not (I'm not), I think the 10 commandments are good guidelines for modern man behavior.

"What I don't approve of is what some are calling the "pussification" of western society. I call it the "taming" or "conversion" of the common western men back into prey-animal like serfs."

I don't know who "some" or "one" are, but humans shouldn't act like like animals...true we are biologically, but not socialogicaly. We should act, talk, write and speak appropriately to our rank in the "animal kingdom".

Well it was a metaphor. Incidentally man is an animal an omnivorous one which means man needs both plant and animal sources in the diet for optimum health.

It's your choice, but NOT your RIGHT to force your view on others. Why not let the MARKET decide? Don't buy Epicurious if you choose(I won't)..others may choose otherwise, but that's their prerogative, not yours to dictate.

See, the point is, the Left is being portrayed as trying to take away your choice! Bill Mahr made fun of Republicans on his show saying they were lying about Democrats wanting to take your hamburgers away from you by trying to stop "factory farming" in the name of climate change, means cutting back on cows which cuts back on hamburgers. Are some on the right taking that to far? Of course they are just like the Left saying we are going to die in, what is it, 8 years now down from 10?



Both parties exaggerate but it is up to all of us to separate the "wheat from the chaff" as they say. It's political rhetoric.


This was AOC's statement that started the rhetoric.

Addressing the controversy, Ms Ocasio-Cortez told a late-night talk show that nobody would be forced to "go vegan", but that "we've got to address factory farming".


"Maybe we shouldn't be eating a hamburger for breakfast, lunch, and dinner," added the New York City congresswoman, a self-described democratic socialist.

And that turns into "the right wants to take away your hamburgers". Please tell me we are all smart enough to see this stuff for what it is, trying to scare you into believing this or that and it looks like it is working on both sides of the aisle.


There is usually just a small kernel of truth in all these things that get blown way out of proportion to influence your vote.

I think you give some on this board too much credit.
