Milk cows out enjoying the day!

sacred cow /skrid kou/ an idea, custom, or institution held, especially unreasonably, to be above criticism. We all KNOW meat is bad, right?.... Red meat ca...uses cancer, obesity and heart disease. We’re eating too much meat. Humans don’t need to consume animal products to be healthy. Raising livestock is bad for the environment. It’s unethical to eat animals. If we can produce meat in labs, then why should we eat animals? Everyone is trying to figure out how to feed the world in the most sustainable and healthy way. However, we've allowed corporate interest, big food, flawed science, click-bait media and naïve celebrities to steer us away from what a truly nutrient-dense, ethical and sustainable, and regenerative food system really is. The mantra that all meat is bad influences how we're training dietitians, shaping our dietary guidelines, designing school lunch policies, and funding for nutrition-related research. Meat is being vilified as causing cancer, heart disease and diabetes, yet there are no solid studies to back this up. Silicon Valley has invested millions in highly processed meat alternatives, with the assumption that engineering our proteins in factories will be a better alternative to something nature has already figured out: grazing animals, restoring land while converting cellulose into protein. It’s not the cow, it’s the how.
