No need to go full vegetarian. No need to eat cows every day. Balance
Macros are an interesting thing. I’m far more interested in micros though, and various plants have them more than any animal foods. The balance of macros I get is reliably sufficient to stay healthy, I almost never need to think about it.
I suppose if you’re a body builder it might be appealing to eat animal products, but you can still swing it with plants.
I never understood this meme. What exactly is the philosophy? A philosophy of how others should partake in a lifestyle that you don’t?
It's odd enough to tell others what to prefer, but it's not clear what the impact of "As a meat eater" is supposed to have.
"As a straight man, my philosophy is if you're gonna be gay, just be gay this certain way." —It's nonsensical to me.
The “as a meat eater” part signifies that I’m not vegetarian which seems like an important distinction in this context.
Sounds like how the vegan people at work would comment on other people's lunches.
In other words, if you're telling people which foods to prefer, and you don't even have an ethical angle on it, what exactly are you doing?
As a meat eater, this has been my philosophy. If you’re gonna go vegetarian, just go for it. Vegeterian food is delicious and there’s so much choice! Entire cultures of amazing natively vegetarian foods with no need for weird meat substitutes.
Personally, legumes don’t have the right macros. Neither do fake meats. Cottage cheese and greek yogurt make better meat substitutes imo.
