FOOD. The one thing that rocks my world. It is my greatest passion. I love food. The only reason I am not already the greatest chef in the world is that I still enjoy the discovery and the mystery. It is a caterpillar pillar that I do not want to climb. But, I do visit often.
The only reason I'm writing this blog is to have a reference for my reasons for NOT believing in vegetarianism.
I don't think I have the patience to flesh it all out, so for now a list:
1. Animals were meant to be eaten. In the wild, predators eat prey. Prey who aren't eaten, die. Dead uneaten prey feed the life forms in the lower part of the food chain. Humans are at the top of the food chain for now. Deal with it.
2. Humans were meant to eat animals. Your teeth say so. Your pancreatic enzymes say so. Your gall bladder says so.
3. There are essential proteins that are sourced only from animals. Essential means required and necessary.
4. If you believe that animals have feelings, it won't be a major leap of faith to realize that plants have feelings too. With this reasoning, you can now only eat fruits, dairy products and tofu. But, if you're eating fruits and not planting the seeds then you are a plant baby killer.
5. I love lechon aka roasted pig. I love veal sausages.
This is a direct reaction to a blog entitled "Meet the Meat":
