The quantity doesn't seem right to me, a normal american peanut butter jar is about 2 pounds. I feel like if the only thing you eat in a day is peanut butter that by itself would be about a half a jar right? Calories would put it at ~1/3 a jar for daily caloric intake but obviously you're going to overshoot if you're eating straight peanut butter. Half a jar in a week just doesn't sound that crazy to me, thats barely over 2 servings/day.

Also peanuts are low in oxalates compared to other nuts. The number I keep finding for a low oxalate diet is 100 mg/day. Apparently 200-300 is a typical amount. The highest number I found is 20mg of oxalate to a tablespoon of PB so 2 pounds a week is only 160mg/day unless I messed up the math.

*I think what happened here is OP is either predisposed to kidney stones and is generalizing the special diet they should be on to everybody else or is just overweight and leaving out that detail since everything I'm reading about NAFLD is that it's caused by obesity not oxalates.

Have to respect someone getting in on grifting conservatives without even endorsing their views in the process.

I wish I could find a city that actually enforced noise ordinances against loud vehicles. Every city I've lived in has been way too fucking loud for me to handle, so now I have to drive everywhere because the alternative is live in a city and be driven insane by noise pollution.

It's not abuse to feed an animal a nutritionally complete diet. There is no magical nutrient that exists in animals that cannot be artificially synthesized. Just because you don't care about animal suffering doesn't make it necessary or justified.

Even if that was true, you're still killing other animals which is obviously more harmful/abusive to them than not giving them their favorite food instead of the same nutrients in a different package.

Ah yes, its the people that are against harming animals that are the real animal abusers.

Feeding an animal a nutrionally complete diet: abuse

killing animals: not abuse

It's so funny that they're the largest instance. Only see incredible decisions coming out of there.

from the OP

a pack of vegan burgers, these are more expensive than regular burgers!

I don't think they meant fish burgers when they said regular burgers. And sugar isn't generally considered a vegan substitute for an animal product.
