All cheetahs must die!
Recognizing the vegan and why meat is important.
“The cheetah only lives about 6 years because he eats too much meat”, I heard whilst I was reading the information on the board of the animal we were all looking through a glass window. Sighing internally I turned my head. There she stood, woman, midst 40’s. Easy pants, fleece sweater and complimented short haircut. She goes on talking to her son. “The meat the cheetah eats contains too much protein. All that protein forms phosphates and that phosphate damages their kidneys. So all cheetahs die because of kidney disease”.
?Stupid cheetahs. They deserve to die!
?Ahum…..no no no! I’m just kidding you. Poor kid, tonight he’ll probably will eat some “healthy” prefab veggie burger, thinking doing his body any good.
Why I eat animals, like the cheetah.
Protein. Yeah, but broccoli contains so much protein per calorie, more than beef!” was another slogan I read somewhere (glad I don’t know anymore). Yes. Broccoli contains protein. Per calorie about 0,14 grams, whilst beef does 0,2. So first off all, the statement is not true. But to have enough protein you should eat about 2 kilo’s of broccoli for protein, not even thinking about the poor bio-availability. So you should eat about double this amount. Good luck with that.

?B12 and omega 3. There’s enough about this on the internet.
?Satiety. Some fish, a few eggs, piece of chicken or beef or a plate with some shellfish does the trick. Not craving for the next few hours, preventing getting hangry.
?Taste. And that is very personal. I like the taste of meat and fish, maybe you don’t. Fine.
?Unprocessed. Yes, the animal must die and that’s probably not a pretty sight. But there are people that can raise animals the right way and kill them in a descent way. Messy meat like nuggets and “hamburgers to go” do not come from a good farm and they contain unnecessary ingredients. Buy the good stuff, do your homework. You and you only solely responsible to choose the right kind of animal products and where they come from.
Should I eat several kilo’s of meat per day? Probably I shouldn’t, never tried it, but I wouldn’t even could eat it all. Is it better to eat meat from well-raised animals? Yes and even I could be better at this. Should we stop eating meat and all become vegans so we can save the planet. No.
