In the future, cultured meat will replace all animal-based flesh in any pet food and human food. Cultured mouse and chicken flesh, and an infinite assortment of other fish proteins, are set to appear on pet food shelves very soon.
Ethical feeding friction will become a thing of the past.
@Disputatore@mastodonindians@algorithm They already know that animal agriculture is unsustainable and a failed business model. We have the science. It's not a secret anymore!
@Disputatore@mastodonindians@algorithm The smart ones are already changing. The less intelligent ones will be left financially ruined and societal outcasts due to their abject cruelty to mothers and babies they have tortured and condemned to the slaughterhouse
@animalsonlywantkindness@mastodonindians@algorithm One of the big issues around cultured meat is the environment impact of production. ATM growing mammalian cells in large sterile reactors is energy and resource intensive.
Still, one can hope :)
@astro_ray@animalsonlywantkindness@mastodonindians@algorithm "vegan meat" is too broad a concept, I would not know.
There are many attempts at culturing cells for meat, and I don't think we know how well they scale up. Check #meatable for instance.
Personally I dropped all the meat alternatives because pretty much all of them are #ultraprocessed. Good for the environment but bad for your health.
@polentabianca@astro_ray@mastodonindians@algorithm Plantbased cruelty-free dairy and flesh replacements are doing well in the retail market because of those who want palate pleasure. A whole-foods plantbased diet is the healthy option for those who care about their health. Veganism is not a diet, it's not about you or me. It's not about human health or convenience, or even the environment. Vegans reject the commodity status of nonhumans. It's a social justice movement for the most vulnerable
What if they were dogs? The truth is that there is a separate room inside Kamakhya Temple itself, where these baby goats are sacrificed by the disciples.
How can slaughtering animals help answer a prayer?
In the Ebionite scriptures Jesus condemned animal sacrifice in the temple of Jerusalem and sought to forever bring that practice to an end. The Ebionite or Hebrew Gospel quotes Jesus as saying, “I have come to abolish the sacrifices, and if you cease not from sacrificing, my wrath will not cease from you.”
In this season of elections, India is voting for a plantbased diet. A recent national survey on the mood of the nation reports that Indians are overwhelmingly in favour of eating plantbased.
74% of respondents believe that plantbased diet is good for overall health, 73% feel it helps stop animal exploitation, 72% believe it is good for the environment, and 62% feel it is an easy lifestyle to maintain.
Shelters ARE killing more animals to feed rescued dogs than they are actually saving. The average shelter kills thousands of farmed animals to feed rescued dogs.
This is cruel and unnecessary.
Dogs can have their nutritional needs met on a balanced plantbased cruelty-free diet.
More veterinarians accept the scientific research that animal flesh-based pet foods are linked to cancers and inflammatory conditions in dogs https://sustainablepetfood.info/
A combination of aggressive pet food marketing and manipulative mythologies about "natural" canine behaviour has WRONGLY CONVINCED even the most dedicated vegans that it's unhealthy to take animal flesh out of pet food without a shred of evidence.
This isn't based on nutritional needs, it's rooted in cultural bias.
The assumption might be that dogs and cats need animal flesh. That's not true.
If you are not vegan, we are not the same. Vegans see all animals as individuals with their own lives and interests to protect. Vegans reject the commodity status of nonhumans.
Vegan is always Halal 🌱
Vegan is always Ahimsa 🌱
Vegan is always Kosher 🌱
Veterinarians who take an oath to promote animal health and welfare often omit cows, buffaloes pigs, goats, sheep, chickens, fish and other farmed animals from their vow. Many attack the movement against animal exploitation for milk, eggs and flesh and few are ethical vegans.
The evidence clearly shows that dogs and cats can thrive on a diet without feeding them other animals.
Nonvegans often say "I like to eat chickens." How many of them cut the throats of the baby chickens they swallow? How many see their misery and fear?
There is a better solution than murder for palate pleasure.
Mock meats are meat analogues, or meat alternatives, which are made for non-animal based ingredients such as soy, wheat gluten, vegetable protein or a mixture of these.
