Alt-Dairy and Alt-Meat

BUT NOT ALT-TRUTH

At university I ended being a social vegetarian. I lived with 3 other friends and each was a vegetarian. I loved the meal time. But what does the steak eater bring to the table? Clearly not a steak, as I would be adding something only I could eat. So being social I brought vegetables. When in Rome! Slowly after a while meat was eliminated from my diet.

At Christmas we got a tree but alas we had no decorations. I remember us braving the snow to get to a 711 to see what we could find for decorations. Nothing until all of us giggling we bought several PlayGirls.

Our grand plan was to decorate the tree with all the magnificent …We cut out the phalluses and laced these with red ribbons to don upon our very unusual Christmas tree..

From a distance the tree looked right with the festive lights and hanging ‘decorations‘. It was only when you got close that. Sha-zam.

I remember my best friend’s mother coming over a few days later while her daughter was at school. I served coffee and I sat in the living room by the tree with her mom catching up. I was fine until I realized oh no!! We have dicks all over the tree!!! Oh no!!!! I was mortified. If she noticed she never gave the faintest clue.

A year or so later I started having the chicken dreams at night. I would find myself in a field and through the blowing grass a chicken would go by. It felt like this chicken was inviting me to a game of tag so ya I started to run after the chicken. Just as I would get close, I would see another chicken and I would divert. Soon the field was teaming with chickens running happily. But I would never catch any of them.

Night after night I had the chicken dream. Finally I had had enough of this tag. I was a bit angry. Why did I have to keep having this dream? Before I lay down this one night, I instructed myself to stay focus on one chicken.

So that night in the dream. All the chickens ran. But I chased one down. I was so happy and I grabbed the chicken lifted it up in the air and bit its neck off. The blood was everywhere and I woke up startled. Officially the chicken dream was now a nightmare.

Night after night I woke up in sweats after biting clean the necks of chickens in my dreams. And I don’t have the kind of eye teeth for this. But you know anything is possible in a dream. I realized that I needed to stop these awful dreams one way or another. So I threw on my Roots sweats and got in the car and drove to an all night Burger King. What’ll you have?

A Chicken Burger. I had pains digesting it. But thus ended my vegetarian days. And My chicken nightmares. I have not had one since. Although I twitch a little at the petting zoos. (hahaha)

Ask me what I’d think of a government imposing their belief on my diet. BAAAAAAHAHAHAHHAHA. For my friends I became an accidental vegetarian. But for my government? Not a chance.

ALT MEAT AND ALT DAIRY apparently are showing the signs of slowing in their category. Well. And they haven’t even introduced the crickets yet.

According to FoodNavigator

“plant-based to cell cultured, alternative meat and dairy has excited innovators and investors alike. But is the category now showing signs of slow-down?

In this two-day interactive broadcast, FoodNavigator will profile the technology, ingredients and culinary science powering the next generation of meat- and dairy-free innovation. Our journalists will be asking how the sector can maintain momentum and truly take a bite out of conventional meat and dairy sales.

The 2023 Protein Vision series will consist of two category focused events on 21 and 22 June, 2023. Each day will include a morning and an afternoon session. Each session will last 90 minutes and will include interactive presentations, fireside interviews and panel discussions, as well as audience Q&A.”

According to Ento Market Kids Love to cook with bugs. Here’s their other image.

Those aren’t chocolate chips honey. Look at the nice milk and eggs in the image. My kids and I run and yell or stomp on the bugs we see. INSTINCTS. My mom taught me to throw out the flour that had bugs. SAFETY. Maggots? That’s for deciding when the murder took place, not for adding to my stir fry.

Most articles I read, site edible insects as a wonderful cultural thing and that we shouldn’t miss ou on. Fomo for bugs. So many people or countries do this! Yum.

And if you want to resist then you’re dripping in colonialism, or white energy (??), or are racist, or trans-phobic, or hate. Maybe like me, you basically think Trudolt is a communist. (I do think so, must be my white energy) and that is why you don’t want to eat bugs.

According to HealthLine “People most commonly eat crickets in under-resourced countries, where many people experience food insecurity and other animal sources of protein, like cattle, poultry, and fish, are scarce.”

SO NOT BY CHOICE THEN. BUT TO SURVIVE ANOTHER DAY.

I read this as these poor souls would PREFER NOT TO EAT INSECTS BUT THEY ARE ESSENTIALLY STARVING. love PR. they really know how to take a story and shove it up the woke machine and have it come dripping with guilt and sparkles.

IF YOU DISAGREE, the truth police are coming in their little electric cars. Unless, wait the battery is dead.

“Some researchers caution that insects such as crickets may act as carriers of pathogens that could infect humans and animals.

In a 2019 study, researchers analyzed insect samples from 300 household insect farms and pet stores in Central Europe, including 75 cricket farms (15Trusted Source).

The study found parasites in more than 81% of the insect farms. In 30% of those cases, the researchers found parasites that could potentially cause disease in humans (15Trusted Source).”

Look if Hollywood, Groomers, et al. want to increase the amount of parasites in their diet for the purposes of ZE ENVIRONMENT.

GIVE MY SHARE TO GRETA WOULD YA! Actually John Kerry can have a lifetime supply.

Not even Peta likes eating bugs. I mean that says something. Of course for Peta, its because they are our friends and we don’t eat our friends. I also don’t eat my friends.

‘Bugs have somehow become common food ingredients, such as the red dye carmine (which is made from the crushed bodies of the female cochineal insect) and confectioner’s glaze, or shellac, found in sprinkles and even some candies (it’s made from the crushed bodies of the female lac bug). It’s up to consumers like you to keep “bugs as protein” from becoming the norm.”

Will the Irish be the first to eat bugs?

Ireland Proposes Culling 200,000 Cows to Help Meet Climate Goals, Farmers Push Back

‘Countries across Europe are working to fulfill their commitment to shift to a climate-neutral economy. Under the European Green Deal, the climate neutrality objective becomes a legal commitment for the 27 agreeing countries to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by at least 55% by 2030. However, some countries are finding this goal might be harder to achieve than originally thought.

Recently, Agriculture Minister Charlie McConalogue told RTE Morning Ireland he has been looking into various ways to reduce methane emissions, including culling 200,000 cows over the next three years.’

People have to understand the the Green New Deal in any way shape or form or however it is described, is a bid for totalitarian control, until you “choose” your insects as the diet of choice. From starvation.

Here’s another one that can go to town on insects. According to NYP “Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent plenty of air time explaining “farting cows,” as she defended her so-called Green New Deal on the premiere of Showtime’s “Desus & Mero.”

“According to an initial outline of the measure, the freshman Democrat and Sen. Edward Markey (D-Mass.) said they “set a goal to get to net-zero, rather than zero emissions, in 10 years because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.”

The race to Zero. Net Zero. Zero responsibility to the human race. Zero notion of compassion. Zero imagination. Zero common sense. And not necessary.

But should we have some input into food production. Even notionally. Start with a herb garden, add kale, (who can mess up kale) and other greens. Substitute an edible ground cover like strawberries, or sweet potatoes, even squash. Do you have fruiting bushes, or trees. My Ukrainian friend said he and his wife cannot understand Canadians love of non-fruiting bushes and trees. What is the point of that? He lives in the burbs with a ton of fruiting trees.

A former client raises rabbits in his garage. They eat your scraps. They multiply. Their poop can be used immediately as fertilizer. Another friend’s neighbor has quail. We have become dependent on the ‘store’ and dissociated from food production. Summer is here it is never to late to sow and learn a new skill. It may be a way to both combat inflation and to provide a wholesome distraction from some of the more absurd parts of our society.

I ate rabbit as a young girl. I had no opinion on it one way or the other. But I remember too that at the time, dyed rabbit key chains were the rage. I wanted one like woke parents want gender mutilation and permanent sterilization for their kids. So badly!!

My dad came home excited and said: Lisa. I have a rabbit foot for you in the laundry sink. OHH. This was great. Finally a soft foot. Was mine going to be pink or blue. Why did he have it in the laundry sink. I got down to the laundry my dad picked up the entire severed leg of a bloodied rabbit. He said look. Lisa it works. He made the foot jump or run by manipulating the bones. Do you like it” Dutifully I said yes. Thank-you dad!

You know. I cried in my room, because I wasn’t going to get my rabbit foot like my friends. Silly girl. So silly. I look back. What I would do to have the future ahead of my kids like I did, without technocrats, and woke parents insisting that our teachers indoctrinate our children so woke parents can pat their backs for being great allies.

My upbringing made me who I am today. Fierce.

Now what I mourn is something entirely different. We need to take it back friends. Dear readers, I care about you so much. We need to use our words all the time. To speak truth. Ears are craving it, way more than Hollywood craves bugs or virtue signaling.

I wonder when Biden or the dolt will order measuring rabbit farts to justify banning these in favor of crickets.

DON’T LET A DAY GO BY THAT YOU DON’T STAND FOR WHAT IT RIGHT AND GOOD. NOT A DAY. GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD THAT YOU ARE ALIVE TO DO IT. THAT YOU WERE GIVEN THE DISCERNMENT TO SEE IT. THAT YOU WERE GIVEN THE VOICE TO UTTER IT. THAT YOU WERE GIVEN THE STRENGTH MORAL AND OTHERWISE TO STAND and SPEAK. Fill the world with the beauty of your courage. Become addicted to speaking truth. Cast off the idea of political correctness or that everyone has to be completely comfortable with your views all the time. Stop self-censoring. I am going into my world with that confidence. I am finding there are so many that want this voice right now.

Political correctness is like bug eating. Once you’ve mastered the first, you will be ready for the next.

Empower each other. Hope is our realm and that and only that, supports action.

I hope you eat steak tonight. And if you are one of my many vegetarian friends: I hope all the bugs in your life are underfoot.
