Look, I get why people go vegan. Factory farming is awful, no argument there. And yeah, cutting out meat helps the planet in some ways. I'm not gonna pretend those points don't exist. But here's the thing - humans evolved eating meat. Our brains got bigger, our guts got smaller, all because we started cooking and eating animal protein. That's not some fringe theory, that's basic anthropology. We're omnivores by design. And let's talk real-world nutrition. Vegans have to carefully plan every meal to get enough B12, iron, zinc, omega-3s. Meat eaters? We get all that naturally. Sure, you can supplement, but why rely on pills when nature already packed everything into a steak? Plus, there's the whole ethical question of forcing dietary choices on others. Most people don't want to go vegan. So demanding everyone else change their entire lifestyle? That feels less like compassion and more like control.
