It should be an easy thing to do, but fast food is truly addictive for many. The entire world would be better off with less meat consumption for a host of health, ethical and environmental reasons. I agree reducing meat consumption is challenging. I quit fast food decades ago, but still have plenty of room for improvement. I am glad my thoughts have some resonance for you. Thanks!

Such an easy thing to do, but I am not a fast-food junkie. I think 🤔 maybe I need to limit my meat consumption to once a week. Now that'll be a challenge. As always, thanks for your thoughts.

The scale of animal slaughter for food is incomprehensible. It amounts to over 150 million animals a day in concentration camp style facilities. If you think your dog or cat is sentient, how can you not believe a cow or a pig is as well? They feel fear and pain, just like you and me. I tried Beyond Burger patties, pretty convincing fakes, but after years away from beef I no longer crave it anyhow. Thanks for your thoughts.

Fast food outlets are horror shops of production and can't see how plant based meat derivatives aren't from the off going to be massive improvements on taste and health giving properties. Habits can be changed and 'plant based' alts will continue to improve. Change is good
