Never been happier to be a vegetarian incapable of processing milk.
Edit: to be clear, I’m poking fun at your upcoming bankruptcy over a simple dinner of milk steak and jellybeans.
Pasteurization is done for a reason.
That won't make it any cheaper when it follows the price of eggs
There is a paper out about reactivation after pasteurization sadly.
I'd be interested in the specifics of that - as far as I've seen it's been shown to be very effective.
im confused. I thought this was a joke but is this conversation about pasteurization stopping lactose intolerance????
Well, it started with my misunderstanding of the original post talking about "not being able to drink milk" and thinking they perceived the benefit being that they wouldn't catch bird flu from milk (which has been a concern). They later clarified they were thinking about the cost involved.
Being able to eat meat doesn't mean you have to. Something that (perhaps slightly irrationally) annoys me about some people. They act as if a meal requires meat and then complain at how expensive food is to buy. Laughs in omnivore £15/week each diet. But by not being actually vegetarian I can still have things like Worcestershire sauce too.
Yeah and its annoying the vegans that are so militant they discourage meat reduction in diets. Beef is so much worse (both health and environment) than most other meats that getting a large amount of folks to give up or massively reduce beef consumption is way better than a much smaller number becoming vegan.
Just look at /r/vegan, even if you don't eat/use animal products you are still not a vegan unless its for their specific reasons. If you do it for environmental reasons they decide you don't count as a vegan.
It's also on reddit, what do you expect?
It's tragic that people have already killed their cats with raw milk (and some cat food), apparently. I'm sure Brainworms will be looking out for everyone's pets, too....
Shame that's not how this virus works with it's concern of jumping from avians and mammals, including humans.
That is one concern, if it's also resulting in a lot of livestock being killed off that will now impact food prices of more than just eggs.
Yup. Its to late now but for a week or few chicken meat prices were down and given the timing im almost sure if was from flocks being culled.
I would absolutely make use of that with my freezer. And complain to my partner that we don't have a chest freezer in the place one should obviously go.
we have two so that we can clean and thaw one once a year and of course also to store more.
Umm ... when chickens are killed because of an outbreak the carcasses are buried. It is illegal to butcher or sell any type of meat that's part of a disease outbreak, whether it's BSE in cattle or bird flu in poultry.
what happens is farms inside a certain area area that exactly is what happens but farms just outside the area that don't have to kill their flocks realize that area may increase. Basically that they are in a danger zone. So you can slaughter and get the meat price right away or just thin your heard to reduce the chance of spreadage. Im not really sure the details but this is generally what I have been lead to believe happens and the chicken prices we saw for a week or few (can't remember how long but it was at least two weeks) was 99 cent a pound breast which we have not seen for years around here. An interesting thing about it to is that it was not fraken chicken which also made me suspect its from egg layers. I know we had farms get nuked in the area.
Depression diet is coming and meat won't be on the menu.
I have to have whole milk and other dairy as part of my nutritional regimen as worked out by a professional dietician, so I'm glad I'm not in America right now.
It's ok. I still got my emergency rum ham.
You won't be laughing when it crosses over to the soybeans!
