I have always liked vegetables, gains, nuts, and beans, but they were, for years, secondary to meat. I gradually over a long period of time learned that I actually preferred meatless meals to those centered on animal products. Sometimes, I would go a couple of months without having any meat or poultry at all. I would, however, occasionally craves meat, have some, and then not crave it again…

The amount of room required to raise all these animals is massive (Corliss). In South America, about 70 thousand…
