I've tried that vegan or plant-based stuff, most of the time by accident at a sample table.

It's not good at all and leaves an after taste like diet drinks.

But I was 16 years old.

I've know several people IRL and online who aren't necessarily vegs, yet they think "meat" is only beef.

"Meat" was always assumed to be the flesh (muscle) of an animal. Pigs, chickens, lambs, deer, fish and other sea creatures are all animals -- they're not plants or minerals -- and their flesh is meat.

George Carlin: “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

So the woman in the OP probably doesn't consider fish to be "meat." (is it a plant? A mineral? )

FWIW: My oldest sister (83) is mostly a veg and would be totally if her meat-and-potatoes husband wasn't there, who she cooks for. She is not a liberal -- she is apolitical -- and I'm not sure of this but I think she got brainwashed by reading and by the veg propaganda that's been out there for decades now.

There is a slaughterhouse just a mile or two from them and my BIL mentioned something about it a few years ago and my sister got pissed at him because he used the word "slaughter."

Americans are so spoiled, so comfortable, and so used to being surrounded by nutritious, fresh food at a cheap price (yes, it's still cheap, just not as cheap as it was) that we reject it and eat relatively un-nutritious plants instead.

I guarantee you that the first thing the freed Holocaust or Gulag victims wanted to eat was a chunk of meat -- not celery or broccoli -- and they were just driven by instinct, because their bodies knew what they needed.

A test for the skeptical -- I've never done this but I know what the answer would likely be:

Separate egg yolks from the whites and put them in separate dishes and put them out in the yard. Any opportunistic animal like crows, possums, etc. will find them at some point. They may sniff both dishes but will eat the yolks first because they instinctively know that most of the nutrition is in the yolks. They haven't been brainwashed (yet).

"It's not nice to fool Mother Nature."

I can’t believe I read this entire post. What the hell are you babbling about.

Chicken is gross. I like when you bite into a piece and there’s a vein in it. Yummy veins.

Chicken is awesome. Trim that nasty stuff off of it and go to town. This was my dinner last night. Kung Pao. The freshly ground Sichuan peppercorns make it both delicious and authentic. My mouth was still tingling an hour later.

Looks good!

Chickens are gross creatures. The way they’re raised is more gross and borderline if not actually criminal. I eat it and it can be delicious. But you never know, you might still get a bite of a gummy vein. Ham too. But don’t worry, I’m not going vegan. I do understand why people would vegan simply from an animal cruelty perspective.

I don't think I've ever found a vein in a piece of chicken.

Maybe spend a couple extra bucks...

Chickens are cool. We have six of them. They have a palace for a coop and I built them an 8' x 24' run attached to it. Also built them a 5' x 10' chicken tractor that gets placed in a different spot in a field each day. They love going out in their chicken tractor. My wife feeds them organic chicken feed, cabbage, cucumbers, blue berries, and watermelon every day. The eggs are amazing and we average 5 to 6 eggs a day from them.

Hold up. Are you saying that a living animal has veins?

That's crazy talk.
