Boca Burger Products
I was just looking at the Boca site and noticed that they altered some
more of their products to be vegan now. I hope to find them at a store near me. http://www.bocaburger.com |

Then you add in all the death and suffering from the plowing, planting, spraying, harvesting, and porocessing of soy, and you end up with a maasive pile of dead animals. The difference? One cow will provide 1000s of burgers for one death, and your burgers can cause many deaths per burger. What a hoot! The idiocy of veg*ns knows no bounds... > > > http://www.bocaburger.com |

Nobody ever said veg*n's don't like the taste of meat, just the harmful health effects from it like...HEART DISEASE!!!! Then you add in all the death and suffering Who died?

And what do you think they feed those cows? I believe GRAIN must be in your words " plowed, planted, sprayed, harvested, and processed because in many cases, cows do not get to graze the wild fields. and you end up with a maasive pile of dead animals. How do you exactly end up with a "massive pile of dead animals" from processing soy? Please, do enlighten me.. The > difference?

Please, explain yourself.. What a hoot! > The idiocy of veg*ns knows no bounds... You won't convert me, cause I can't get my vitamin C from a cow, sorry just aint gonna happen!

And who suffered? - the farmers? ============================== Animals, millions upon millions of them. Systematically and deliberately. There is no way that a tofu burger caused less death and suffering overall than a real burger made from grass-fed beef or game. I suppose > carrot/lettuce/tomato/green pepper/vegetable etc. farmers > "suffer" the same...." >> from the plowing, planting, spraying, > spraying? Gee, if it's "sprayed" I'm not eating it...organic > all the way for me... ============================== LOL caught by the hype and lys, huh? Organic does not mean pesticide free, or cruelty-free. Organic pesticides are just as toxic, and in some cases even more so to a wider array of non-target animals. Plus, they are applied more often, and in larger quantities. > harvesting, and porocessing >> of soy, > and just so you know, not ALL "meat" substutites come from soy, > I'll let you do the resarch on that one.. ================================== They ALL come from mass produced mono-culture crops. ALL those crops require massive inputs from the petro-chemical industry when compared to grass-fedd beff or game meats. > And what do you think they feed those cows? ========================== Grass. Ever hear of it? Groes quite well all on it's ownn. Now, if YOU could eat it directly, you'd have something in the veg*n lunacy, but since you cannot, and it's plentiful, it makes perfect sense to let cattle and game conv ert it to healthy, nutrietious foods. I believe GRAIN must be in > your words " plowed, planted, sprayed, harvested, and processed > because in many cases, cows do not get to graze the wild > fields. ====================================== ALL Beef cattle are grazed in the US, liar. And then only about 3/4 of those are sent to feed-lots. Maybe it's YOU that should learn a few things from research, eh? I've done mine, and I know the death toll your veggies cause. maybe you like to ignore the bloody footprints you track all over, but the rest of us can see them. > and you end up with a maasive pile of dead animals. > How do you exactly end up with a "massive pile of dead animals" > from processing soy? Please, do enlighten me.. ==================================== see list at end... Plowing, seeding, spraying, harvesting, storage, chemical processing of soy.... All are mechanically intensive processes the rely on massive inputs from the petro-chemical industry. Now, add the numbers of animals that die from resourse extraction and refining.... > The >> difference?

Please, explain yourself.. ========================================== Each field of soy beans is a process that depends on mechanical and chemical industries. Anmimals die in those processes. Plus, since you've created an unnatural environment full of easy food and cover, many animals over-populate that area during the summer. There can be up to 1000s of animals per ACRE, not per field, per acre! Even if they all don't die directly under the whees and mechanics of the machines, they are left at the end of the season with no food and cover. That leaves tham to die from starvation and predation. And, to complete your next idea, no, they all can't just scurry off to the surrounding areas as those natural areas will already be at or near their own carry capacities naturally. Besides, many field animals have a natural area of only 100s of yards at the most. Many fields are far bigger than that. Plus, all that open movement would just attract more predators. > What a hoot! >> The idiocy of veg*ns knows no bounds... > You won't convert me, cause I can't get my vitamin C from a > cow, sorry just aint gonna happen! Give me an orange over an > overprocessed Vit C tablet any day! ==================================== You can't get b12 from an orange, fool. You can't get it from any NATURAL veggie. And, again, those suppliments are also products of the petro-chemical industry. Why is it that veg*ns have such a love affair with them? Just like killing and environmental destruction, or what? Now, you want to eat crap? That's fine with me. I don't care what your diet is. You can kill yourself with a self-hating, people-loathing diet all you want. All I care about is the LYS that accompany vegan lunacy. Also, for your education, veganism is not about health. Actually, veganism isn't even a DIET, it's a lifestyle based on a religion.... >> >> >> >> >>> >>>http://www.bocaburger.com Here are some sites, with info on specific areas and pesticides. http://www.abcbirds.org/pesticides/pesticideindex.htm http://www.pmac.net/summer-rivers.html http://www.pmac.net/fishkill.htm http://www.pmac.net/summer-rivers.html http://www.pmac.net/bird_fish_CA.html http://www.pan-uk.org/pestnews/Pn36/pn36p3.htm http://www.wwfcanada.org/satellite/p...eFactSheet.pdf http://www.hww.ca/hww2.asp?cid=4&id=230 http://www.ncwildlife.org/pg07_Wildl...on/pg7f2b6.htm http://ipm.ncsu.edu/wildlife/small_grains_wildlife.html http://www.hornedlizards.org/hornedlizards/help.html http://insects.tamu.edu/extension/bulletins/b-5093.html Since your non-animal clothing isn't cruelty-free either, here's a couple to cover some problems with cotton. http://www.panna.org/panna/resources...Cotton.dv.html http://www.sustainablecotton.org/TOUR/ To give you an idea of the sheer number of animals in a field, here's some sites about *just* mice and voles. Note that there can be 100s to 1000s in each acre, not the whole field. http://www.ext.colostate.edu/Pubs/natres/06507.html http://extension.usu.edu/publica/natrpubs/voles.pdf http://extension.ag.uidaho.edu/district4/MG/voles.html http://www.forages.css.orst.edu/Topi...rate/Mice.html http://www.utextension.utk.edu/publi...les/pb1600.pdf http://www.pgc.state.pa.us/pgc/cwp/v...a=458&q=150643 http://faculty.njcu.edu/fmoran/vol4fieldmouse.htm To cover your selfish pleasure of using usenet, and maintaining a web page on same, here's are a couple dealing with power and communications. http://www.clearwater.org/news/powerplants.html http://www.towerkill.com/index.html http://www.closeindianpoint.org/articles/tjn_071103.htm And, an extra, just because it's 'organic' doesn't make it safe. Special potatoes and celery were bred to increase their resistance pest, and create one where pesticides were not needed. The results were good, as to not needing extra pesticides, however.... "...Breeding methods and other "substitutes" used as alternatives to pesticide chemicals can expose consumers to greater risks. This is a recognized problem particularly in cases where farmers breed plants to become more insect-resistant, a "natural" substitute to using synthetic pesticides. In one particular case, breeders grew a special type of highly insect-resistant celery to avoid using pesticides. It wasn’t until after the people handling the celery developed a serious rash that it was discovered the special celery contained 6,200 parts per billion of carcinogenic psoralens, a natural chemical that heightens sensitivity to the sun’s rays; conventionally grown celery protected with synthetic pesticides contains approximately 800 parts per billion. The same occurred when scientists bred a "pest-free" potato. The breeders found that the potato "was so full of natural pesticides that it was acutely poisonous to humans." By using synthetic pesticides, therefore, farmers and food producers often are indirectly protecting consumers from potential risks from natural pesticides which scientists have found can be carcinogenic..." http://www.consumeralert.org/pubs/research/CRFeb00.htm >> >> |
