I fully agree but we're omnivores and to be healthy some meat should be eaten. Yeah, we eat way WAY too much meat, but that is a different issue.
As soon as lab meat is a proper thing (still not sure about the viability of that one, though) I will finally eat meat and not feel bad about it
A person can be healthy without consuming meat
With very specific food alternatives, maybe, sure. If you want to go without, I applaud you. Once factory meat comes out, I'll switch right away. Away with the mistreatment of animals.
But please don't be one of those "we're not omnivores, it was all a conspiracy by the meat industry!" types. Yes, we humans are omnivorous and you'd be begging for a scrap of meat only a hundred or so years ago. Be happy wr live in an age where you actually get to make the decision to finally skip meat and pray we don't return to those times (not guaranteed with trump now)
A person maybe, I can't. Doctors' statement. And like me, probably many others.
Of course then, a specific medical condition can require it.
