Millions of mice, rats, voles, and rabbits are killed by machines during harvest. Tens of thousands of birds are killed by either ingesting poison meant for smaller pests, or they're out right shot by farmers protecting their crops.

lol edgy. You know animals are fed crops? A lot more than humans, too.

What I remember about Chinese food as a young kid growing up in Hong Kong was not really that it was “bad” (which it often was, of course) but that the stuff my parents ordered for us was almost all frozen, and that I would generally throw out whatever that they brought home. This was in the days before a proper kitchen, and there was a tiny freezer unit that could only hold what was on the top shelf, and often that was some random combination of Chinese or Indian takeout. A couple of times a week we’d have what seemed like the best of everything, but the rest of the time it was pretty terrible: a frozen piece of some meat and whatever was frozen with it, a tub of rice, and maybe a can of green peas, and maybe a can of baby corn. There was a few times in my childhood when we were treated to something really good, like fresh fish that one of the waiters brought home in a plastic bag. So for my first couple of decades, I never actually ate a lot

but it's not really logical to Raise a human up to maturity for harvesting the meat
(to make sure it reamins healthy physically and medically)

I suppose in certain African Tribes where the Humans are healthy by nature (lots of excercise, good diet) it's more acceptable, some diseases to worry about for sure and the meat isn't going to be as nice due to lack of fat, but it's better than eating a western modern human

Hong kong has really good food nowadays, when I visit I always go for Dim Sum in the morning

Problem in China (less so Hong Kong nowadays) is that the grades of meat are generally quite low, and depending where you go the hygeine isn't great

In the rural area's you'll have meat delivered in unrefrigerated trucks and it's basically half rotten as they're butchering it, lots of flies around

Dog is fresher because no need to drive it around, but there's a lack of Hygeine, still good meat though

Then again, I'm not going to knock the big guys too much because they're still 10 time more humane than what happens in bugman-land.

Dentist here, human have weak teeth compared to animals. To chew cud you need 5 times our crushing power on molar teeth, to skin live prey you need 5 times the size our canines. Our teeth are for eating cooked food, both meat and plants.

This is true. Only humans enjoy spicyness. Birds do not feel chili heat, humans seek it out. Onions and garlic evolved their pungency to drive away less perverse creatures than humans, who seek them out. Peppercorn, szechuan pepper etc are only eaten by animals who do not feel their spice, unlike humans who eat them for their spice. We have a unique attraction to spicy things because we eat cooked food, unlike every other animal.

>eating animals

I swear, this is one of the most bullshit arguments that vegans and activists will use against people that consume animal products, but also the most disingenuous AND somehow the most convincing. They're literally playing on your heartstrings to make you feel guilty for consuming something that in no way feels the way these people are trying to make you feel.

I grew up on a farm. We raised chickens, pigs, cows, a couple of goats, some horses (just for riding/recreation), and so on. At the end of a long day, it was nice sometimes to go relax in a paddock. Everybody would cluster around. The cows would want scratches. the pigs would flop down next to you and want their butts scratched, the chickens would pick over flies and whatever bugs were around, the horses would kind of stand guard, whatever.

And then fall came, and it was time for butchering. And we'd kill a bunch of chickens, we'd butcher some pigs, we'd kill a steer, and maybe even a goat for some other folks in the community. And you know what? The very next day, I could go back out there to relax and they'd all come clustering around again.

They don't have humanity. They don't have feelings or a conscience or a sense of morality or whatever else these dipshits are trying to project against us. Sure, as someone on a smaller farm, I do have certain objections to some of the mass-produced methods of meat and poultry that we're used to, but the morality/ethical thing is a weave of lies and bullshit. They want you to believe you're raising and butchering and eating the equivalent of a human and that quite simply isn't the case.

So fuck ya, pass the pulpa and the takoyaki and shut the fuck up.

Well the first thing your teeth notice is the bready outer layer, which is gonna be well cooked, and the sweet mixture of the brown sauce and creamy kewpie mayo contrasting with the fishy katsuo/bonito flakes. The flavor gets all mixed up right away (because you eat the things in one bite) with the warm, gooey, undercooked dough-seeming inside of the takoyaki ball, at which point you get the added chewy bonus of the octopus bit in the middle, like some kind of fucky savory Ferrero Rocher. Definitely my favorite Japanese street food, though kushi katsu, impossible to find in the states, is maybe even better.

The thing about animals having no morality is kinda true. Hippos will end you no questions asked and they can crush your head like a melon if approached the wrong way. Different animals in the same family as badgers are fucking ruthless and many have a tendency to surplus kill (killing more than they need to eat) along with otters taking other otters' young for randsom or even raping baby seals. Ducks give zero fucks about consent (it's why their dicks are the shape they are) and intelligent animals like dolphins and killer whales seem straight up sadistic. Dolphins have rape as their M.O. and have been known to try to mate with humans, killing anothers' young to try to gang rape a female or even attack other dolphins for looking different while Orcas play with their prey launching it several meters into the air with their tails until it's basically mush, often times for fun without the intention of eating.

The intelligence bit is also kind of a meme since some of the aforementioned intelligent animals like dolphins and killer whales give zero fucks and have been known to display behaviour worse than what some people attribute to nogs.

more importantly, most vegetable farming is more distructive than animal farming for the environment. so really what you are doing is killing the soil and land of less fertile places, harming countless amounts of the ecosystem. you could also SIGNIFICANTLY reduce animal suffering by reducing the number of 3rd worlders which breed unceasingly and drive up the food needs of the entire world.

I tried making takoyaki once. It didn't work. It's basically just batter with soy sauce, octopus, broth (I used beef, I shouldn't have) and breadcrumbs mixed in. You then fry balls of batter in oil. It would have been delicious if I'd used a better kind of broth.

Probably similar to how I trained my dog. You can't speak words to it obviously, but you can demonstrate with actions. I started by teaching nose trick. The treat was his treat. Then I started telling him to stay with the treat on his nose, and took the treat if he didn't hold still with it on his nose. Eventually, I guess he put together and started listening. Except one time he fucked up, took the treat right away, so I ran the fucker down, tackled the shit out of him, ripped it from his mouth and ate it right in front of him. After that, he waits for my signal every time.
