Why anyone would be a vegetarian or vegan is beyond me. Beef, pork, chicken, mmmmmmmmm.
livestock we eat is punished and treated isn't humane and honestly makes me cringe. plant based and whole grain meals I don't have the same crappy feeling I used to with a big steak.
Not all livestock is raised the way people think. Free range chicken, beef, etc are readily available around Lincoln, and most cities. Wild and line caught fish, etc can be had here as well. It does cost more, but that is the trade off.
I feel like crap anytime I go "Man vs Food" during a meal, a pound and a half of steak, loaded potato, etc, yeah gonna feel that... Two Sweet Potato Quesadillas, a seitan taco plate, and a slice of avocado cheesecake from Pepe's (all vegetarian) will leave me balled up on the sofa, with a bottle of tums, for a three hour nap. Overeating is overeating.
