Seriously, they eat grass all their lives. Therefore they are made of grass. Therefore eating them is like eating grass. Therefore vegetarians can suck it.

Wiki answers gave me this....

"Corn is a Grain and is commonly misclassified as a vegetable.

If it comes from the reproductive part of the plant, it's a fruit. If it comes from the vegetative part of the plant, it's a vegetable."

Botanically speaking, corn is a caryopsis, or dry fruit - popularly known as a grain."


so a cow is then a grain?

i think if cows turned into what they are fed, we would not want to go near them, they're fed shit...like sometimes literally...but mostly processed disgusting corn shit

o yes, depending on what meat you are eating, chances are you are not eating cow. more than likely you are eating a steer. ( a castrated bull) a cow is actually a heifer that has had offspring. in short, you dont butcher cows, (well you do, but you let them reproduce alot before you do) you butcher steers. steers are often fed differently than cows as well, because you want the meat nice and tasty.

yeah, but a lot of burger places, especially fast food, use cow. It doesn't really matter once it is ground up and put into patty form, but a steak from a cow would be pretty shitty.

hahah youre assuming burger places are even sure what meat is in their "all beef patties" my guess is a combination of cat, dog, some rat, and throw in a little hoof. hahahahaha

Uh, No.

Since they eat grass all the time, eating their poop would be like eating grass. Only the poop is made of grass, not the cow. Noob.

So a blue whale would actually be plankton? Any primary consumer would be classified as what they eat? So we are cows and chickens as well as plants?

Seriously I don't know how this is thought provoking in the slightest. Like "oh god bunnies just eat grass so they must be a plant."

Nice try though man. I'll give you an A for effort.

only if it doesn't have mad cow disease, they get that from eating other cows.

But yes, vegitarians are vegitables. how else would you make sense of them?

By the way... THIS IS NOT A THREAD, IT'S A SANDWICH.

yeah but an ox isn't a human

humans are equipped for eating meat and vegetables (check the different shapes of your teeth)

protein comes from meat

therefore i'm going out tonight and buying a huge steak just for all of you non meat eaters out there

plus "how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?"

CHEERS to meat!!
