Attn: Rev + other vegetarian pansies[views:11164][posts:78]____________________________________ [Sep 27,2010 3:07pm - arilliusbm ""] Honestly, I dont think intelligence and diet have much in common when it comes to certain happenings; we all turn to desperation when one is hungry and there's no food around. For example, our main instinct is survival- it is by this notion that humans can turn to cannibalism (unless you live in Papua New Guinea and practice it through rituals). Other animals turn to cannibalism out of desperation as well, but also to display dominance and other basic innate characteristics. That being said, after thousands of years of experimenting and figuring out what the human stomach can and can't handle, we as a species as evolved as omnivores. An example of this can be how wisdom teeth are slowly being faded out. We don't necessarily need them anymore. But it really boils down to personal choice. We have the knowledge of what each food item does to us, whether it be veggie or meat. I chose both, although I understand the dangers of GMO food. I feel the next necessary step of human diet evolution is actually a reverse concept: we are to eat insects. A handful of grasshoppers has more protein than a slab of steak. As humans, it's our job to consume and destroy everything in our path. Kitchen moths, I'm looking at you! |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 27,2010 3:22pm - the_reverend ""] most insects are total fags. |

Yeah, for Christ sakes. All I did was post a good veggie meal for those who care about such things. Shitstorm ensues... Talking about the evolution of diet and the brain isn't really a shitstorm. On that note, I could really go for the "fried" tofu rolls w/ peanut sauce from Da Lat in Worcester right now. Whether you're vegetarian, vegan, or omnivore, they're damn good. Try em next time you're here and thank me later. And get an avocado boba shake while you're at it. |

I don't know how to say this without coming off as a prick, but you're wrong. At least in your insinuation that the government doesn't subsidize the "vegetarian" industries. Watch King Corn or Food Inc or The Oiling of America. Read The Vegetarian Myth. The average soy/corn/wheat farmer would lose 3 dollars for every acre he/she farms if not for the massive gov't subsidies they receive. I have no problem with people that eat what they want to eat just because but if you're going to try to back it up with "facts," at least make sure they're true. I don't kill my own meat (yet) but that doesn't mean I condone factory farming of any sort. Whenever possible I buy my meat from a local small farmer. I buy my milk local and raw. |

When it comes down to life or death, a human will eat anything. But ask yourself, is that optimal? |

| _________________________________ [Sep 27,2010 9:06pm - Martins ""] I don't drink milk very often anyway but when I do it's local and RAW - which is key. Raw milk still has lactase which is the enzyme that breaks down lactose, the thing a lot of people are intolerant to. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 27,2010 9:15pm - arilliusbm ""] Raw milk, like straight outta the nipple? |
| _________________________________ [Sep 27,2010 9:52pm - Martins ""] Unpasteurized, yes. |

Smarty pants folks say the advent of cooking allowed us to consume massive amounts of protein and calories in small amounts of time, contributing to the nomadic hunter-gatherer's brain span and ability for more downtime/rest/strategizing/communication/brain-stimulating activities. |
