What is your diet - i.e. are you a vegan?

54. I don't care

That isn't to say I haven't thought about it. I have. But, humans have been hunting for a few million years, and not every death was a kill shot. In fact, most of them probably weren't. The whole process of killing for food is a cruel, horrible series of events. Nature is horrifying if you look at it for more than three seconds. But, this is where we are evolutionarily.

Now, you might argue, we've evolved and should know better, etc. And I actually almost concede the point. Unfortunately, knowing better means paying a lot more, and I can't ingest the kind of protein I need on the budget the state of California has deemed adequate.

So, here I am. In a survival mode. Where animals lose and a human wins.

If I could afford tons of non-animal protein to meet my needs on my budget, no problem. Chicken is horrible when you have to eat it day after day after day. Believe me, there's no enjoyment in shredding that stuff and having it on the daily. You come to loathe every mouthful.

But until a viable, sustainable, affordable alternative presents itself, it's a bok bok nightmare.
