| The world has lots of grain, its just a matter of distributing it better, if your realy woried about feeding the starving children in africe (wastage) I wonder if you still eat junk foods, the land their could also be used for more nutricious foods, same for coffee, and coco plants, and beer to name a few, how about tea leaves. To be vegetarian because of wastage is a little narrow minded, we do alot worse things than raise cows to waist resources, moreover the land usualy used to raise cows is not the same quality as the land used for grain.
The safety of plants is also not a given, soy canola and canola are both genetically modified. Moreover you have no idea how many chemicals were used in the production to control weeds and pests.
As far as health were concerened, if we had the digestive system of a horse or a cow. Perhaps we shouldnt eat meat, the fact is we don't. |
