Nobel Prize Winner picks Diet of the Future

PikaKnight

Reminds me a little of Gordon. Rex, do you believe you have time traveled? Just curious.

I hope this is true:

I predict and believe that the farm to fork philosophy will rise exponentially faster.

I certainly prefer the farm to fork philosophy. I hate all the bigotry surrounding individual food philosophies.

In case anyone missed it, Joy_Joy_ posted a link to a refutation of Dr. Roberts:

No one could be a healthy vegan without the convenience of modern technology unless maybe you live at the equator where plant life is abundant year round

Hey! You know what this thread needs? Even more derp because, you know, there just isn't enough.

Okay this is my last post, and only because Joy put up that ridiculous refutation of Roberts.

First you should know that the author of that article has his own high fat meat eating organization. He also died of a heart attack at age 77, which is a remarkable old age for a meat eater.

Second, if you look at the cites you will see his animal studies pretty much all come from a 1969 study of zoo deaths, and not a single one of the creatures who died in the study had cholesterol plaque buildup that occluded the arteries. That is in fact what Dr Roberts talked about, so the studies were immaterial.

Finally, I apologize to all of you for bringing you information you were not capable of understanding. I won't do it again. And if SonofBeach was a Wharton or Penn Law School professor I am the queen of Spain. Have fun with that. You are all juvenile enough to play with that and entertain yourselves for hours. This is my last post on this board;

I hope this is true as well OP :bigsmile:

Veganism is only possible due to modern agriculture, therefore how is it the way we are supposed to eat?

So carnivores would survive without agriculture? That's funny.

of course they would - you don't need modern agriculture to hunt :noway:

and there is that small matter of B12.

Right. I forgot the average carnivore Hunts. That's also funny.
Not sure and not gonna google it but I think we solved the whole B12 thing in the 90's or 80's?

Yes, through the use of modern chemical engineering.

Hey VegesaurusRex, have you evolved to digest cellulose yet?

What's reall sad is a grown adult of 70 years old so desperately clinging to where he went to undergrad as evidence of something.

And the average Vegan grows all their food?

Yes, with SCIENCE - you cannot be a vegan without scientific intervention. That seems to suggest we aren't suppose to be vegans :noway:

EDIT: sorry forgot I was ignoring you. :laugh:

And that while we should just believe that he went there (like we care) he refuses to believe that someone else could have lectured there. Sad.

Okinawa has the most centarians in the world and they eat meat. Not as much as Americans do (but we eat a lot of everything in general for that matter) but they aren't 100% vegan. Vegan is not a cure all and not everyone does well on those diets

Once again you demonstrate your intelligence when you fail to understand basic concepts such as the difference between lecturing and being a professor at a school. Thanks for playing.

Sorry I'll stick to my chicken if it's all the same to you. I've got no plans to stop eating meat regardless of what someone claims will be the 'diet' of the future.... notice the word DIET. Diet suggest short term.

At least no names were mentioned in THIS topic.

Umm, reading comp fail.

He said he lectured there, not that he was a professor.

Hope the door doesn't hit your Royal Highness' *kitten* on the way out.

Personally, I think the diet of the future will be an all water diet, provided we learn moderation and don't get too fat from it. *nods* true story
