That sounds tasty
But I'd have to put some form of meat in there
Either Bacon or some kind of beefs

The flesh you so fancifully fry
Is not succulent, tasty or kind
Its death for no reason
And death for no reason is murder
And the calf that you carve with a smile
Is murder
And the turkey you festively slice
Is murder

take a good look at your teeth.
are they shaped like cow's teeth? no. they're not. that is because the human diet is meant to include meat. it's called the food chain.

i'm pretty sure the human digestive system is evolved mainly to eat grain/nuts and stuff like that
by eating meat you polluting the environment with cow farts and depriving the poor of food. and its murder.

we have canine teeth, which are designed for meat-eating.

Well animals murder other animals all the time then. Which means that presumably if we stop then we have to make them stop.
At which point the majority of them would die as they are not omnivores and the food chain itself collapses.
Would that it were you could get synthetic meat, or that animals could not be so intensively farmed, but it doesn't seem on the cards with the population numbers barely able to be supported by normal means.

well no. to say that we must do as the animals and kill each other for food
then we should also not have societies and not do things for other people and murder people for resources etc. as humans we have developed beyond that so we can make moral choices. anyways. i am not vegetarian for moral reasons. it's just fun to pretend so. goodnight.

self awareness is over-rated
and we-re over-populated, individuals of any species should only produce one copy of themselves, no more, no less. This ensures healthy propogation of species, and maintenance of ecosystems.
anyways, we've only got a couple of million years left on this planet. whatever we do doesn't matter

You had a point up until
"and not do things for other people and murder people for resources etc."
I think people are way ahead of you there. And as much as I believe humanity should not act like savages, the path to hell is paved with good intentions - morality is never a good addition to anything despite how simplistic and trueist murder and such may seem.

Our teeth are actually best suited to eating bugs
which is why people shouldn't use that argument.
"red meat made early humans grow bigger brains" is a far better one.

We would have very different teeth if we were meant to eat large animals.
That doesn't stop me, but it still fucks the "we evolved to eat steak" argument.

there's a slight counter-argument
which is to do with the congruence of the upper and lower sets of teeth, and the reason we evolved only two sets of neat teeth whilst sharks evolved multiple rows.
in short we evolved to eat a varied diet which includes meat, fruits, veg and some bugs (although not so much these days)

the point i'm trying to make is
that claiming that humans are meant to eat only vegetarian foods is nuttier than connor's veggie shit.

Ben Zephaniah?
I disagree vehemently with vegetarianism. The eating of the flesh of reared animals is not murder as it is their purpose. Wild animals is a different story, although I'm not at all opposed to that either.
I do try and buy good quality meat/eggs/dairy from animals who've been well treated and allowed to roam (I know with Dairy these days that's nigh on impossible, but that's the supermeercats fault) and would love to have some chickens or sheep in the future which i would happily rear to the slaughter, and partake in the eating of (although i couldn't eat a whole sheep, that'd be greedy, and unprofitable)

you or your housemates fans of marmite?
someone on here made a recommendation of coating potatoes in it before roasting them a while back and i can confirm it is tasty. although i find it nicer to only do some of the spuds like this, and have a mix on the plate

roast lamb; sear leg of lamb in a deap casserole dish or other large ovenproof cooking impliment with a lid.
then add 750ml dry white whine. 750ml water, veg (carrots, onion, spuds and the like work well) and some streaky bacon. whack in oven for 4-5 hours,
meat falls off bone, onto plate. veg is scooped out with spoon, sauce is dribbled liberaly

i won't tell people where i got that recipe from, he's a bit of a cunt, but his food is good
i was trying to remember delia's chicken in barbecue sauce but i can't, basically involves browning chicken in a roasting tin with oil, onions and black pepper, mixing a sauce that definately contains soy sauce, chili powder and garlic and might also contain white wine. pouring sauce over chicken and cooking for about 30 minutes (turning and basting regularly) delicious with rice

You could hide a bunch of salmon inside a chicken
Then stand up and point at everyone who hates fish and tell them what they just loved eating.
It's great fun watching people try and convince themeselves that they're sick when they clearly enjoyed eating what they "hate".

Differs from fish product to fish product though.
Scampi for instant is quite sweet, deep fried whitebait is sort of crispy like bacon. They were the only fish I used to eat before, never really seemed to like the white flakey appeal of normal fish.
