    "Dominant" and "precious" are NOT the same thing.


    True. But those who dominate are the ones who get to decide what creatures are precious, as well as which ones are food and which are pets that we don't eat.

    Example:
    I think my paycheck is precious, but those who dominate over me get to snag a chunk of it that I never even see. Also, my kids are precious to me, so I feed them. But to the dominant ones, my kids aren't precious at all. They don't care if my kids eat steak or ramen, so they feel self-righteous in stealing from my paycheck to give to someone I've never met.

    And that circles back to my "objective" vs. "subjective" point. You saying human life is precious while other lives aren't doesn't make it universally true. Even if the majority of humans believe that, it doesn't make it a fact. It's still merely an opinion.

    Parmigiano-Reggiano should only be consumed by baby cows.

    I'd skip the roll. Carbohydrates make you fat...I read it in another thread.

    Unless it has black truffles spiked in from all directions, then it's better. But I understand only pigs should consume truffles.

    Darn it.

    In that case I'm going to have a glass of milk. And a cookie.

    You can't do that, milk is only for baby cows and cookies are only for miniature elves that live in highly flammable trees that contain large baking ovens.

    With the amount of over-posting you and I have been engaging in on these boards, it was bound to happen, statistically speaking.

    Though I legitimately find you amusing most of the time. :wink:

    When it comes to dairy, there are no good answers that apply across the board. The health effects seem to vary greatly between individuals.

    Some people tolerate dairy just fine, others have mysterious symptoms when they consume it and yet others can’t tolerate conventional dairy but feel awesome with raw dairy products.

    I personally tolerate dairy and eat a lot of organic, grass-fed yogurt. I frequently use butter with my meals and also eat cheese occasionally. I don’t drink milk… but only because I’ve never really gotten into the habit of it.

    If you tolerate dairy products and enjoy them, then by all means eat dairy. There certainly is no compelling evidence that people should avoid it and quite a bit of evidence of benefits.

    Just make sure to choose quality dairy… preferably grass-fed/pasture-raised and full-fat.

    Low-fat dairy (which is often loaded with sugar) seems to be a bad choice overall… the main metabolic benefits of dairy are due to the fatty components.

    Grass fed yogurt sounds gross.

    The same with chickens. Have you ever seen a wild chicken? Completely different bird compared to farm chickens. For one thing, wild chickens can fly.

    I laughed so hard at this. Chickens can fly. Just because the farmers cut their flight feathers so they can't doesn't mean they are born that way. I had Ameraucana's and Barred Rocks and if I had the picture handy I could show you them roosting 15 feet up in a tree the one night I forgot to lock up their coop.
