What happened in the vegan community?

I hadn't heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.

You are certainly neither. If it was easy to solve, it would already be done. I believe it's feasable with today's techniques with imitation meat but at a huge cost.

The reality is that most pet food utilizes what would otherwise become food waste. It may be difficult to replace it in a way that isn't a net negative.

are you a vet or a nutritional scientist by any chance?

[–] Sarmyth 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

That's the thing. I don't need to be, because I'm not suggesting a diet shift away from established practices offered BY vets. You, however, are attempting to escew established norms in favor of your own agenda. As they say, "Fantastic claims require fantastic evidence."

My claims are not fantastical, yours are.

but if someone who understood it better than us agreed that the food was nutritional and the cat enjoyed the flavour you would be fine with it?

Hey, just give it up. I already answered that question. The nutritional value is not the only factor I value.

[–] davepleasebehave 1 points 3 months ago

no. we both agree. the food needs to be both nutritional.and palatable. then there is no issue.
