In regards to eating meat

[Monica]

3D I resonate with most of the stuff you say in here. I eat mostly what my body/mind asks me to and what my pocket can pay for and I´m just grateful for that everyday. In my country being a complete vegetarian is very expensive. Very. In my city for example, everyone lives in flats, no way to grow veggies, and there are about 300.000 people and only 2 vegetarian shops and no restaurants. Sometimes we forget about how privileged we are that we can choose. There is so many people out there as much awake as everyone in here that don’t have a choice.

Are you saying that rice, beans, wheat, corn, lettuce, carrots, apples, bananas, etc. cost more than meat?

That is strange, being that meat production require far more space and resources than feeding the crops directly to humans.

Here in the US, we can buy a bag of pinto beans for very cheap, and it will cook lots of pots of beans.

Most people who eat animals, also eat some fruits and veggies, so the cost for the fruits and veggies is the same (unless you go raw vegan, in which case you'd be eating more fruits and veggies).

The meat is just replace by rice, beans and other grains and legumes, which are much cheaper than meat.

It costs a lot to feed those cows. I'm puzzled as to how rice, beans, etc. would be more expensive than meat.
