Geez, how is she a doctor? She's dumb as a bag of rocks.

I was guessing her degree was something like lesbian dance theory (yes, that's a thing) but she holds a degree in Sociology.

Also, Fox News is a joke.

How does Fox News inviting a liberal wackjob to show America how crazy the left = they're a joke?

They do the same thing with this raving, man-hating lunatic yet nobody thinks it reflects the views of the network:

Not a single animal deserve to be tortured and murdered.

Homo sapiens eat meat.

Our ancestor, homo erectus, ate meat.

Our ancestor's ancestor, homo habilis, ate meat.

You can't reject 2.5 million years of evolution and expect people to not eat meat. It's deep down inside all of us.

It's just the way it is.


Quote
Based on dental microwear-texture analysis, Homo habilis (as well as other early Homo-class hominins) likely did not specialize on particularly tough foods. Microwear-texture complexity is, on average, somewhere between that of tough-food feeders and leaf feeders (folivores.) These measurements are analyses of the percentages of tooth surface structure containing "pits" (frequency and depth of dental damage resulting from consumption of certain foods across species). It is a heavily used, and henceforth widely accepted as reliable, measure of wear that a species, on average, endures from eating certain food. These measurements point to an increasingly generalized, and generally omnivorous diet in Homo habilis.

In general,
it would be great if we had all sorts of things  :D

Animals killed for food should be treated good, but this is very expensive. Even a farm where for example "organic pigs" are raised(in our region they're brown) they are still crammed together because prices for good food, housing and property in general are very high.

The standard fare meat industry is most likely one of the forgotten corners of hell(think of halal/kosher also).

The vegan venue of being trendy(or more of being an asshat for evenly keeled minds) would be nice if it weren't connected to a "we know what's good for you" agenda. Unfortunately there are whole lot of mindless shit pigs stuffing themselves with low quality meat on a constant basis - a double loss for consumers and animals alike.

Because provoking your vegan guest by eating a steak in front of her is childish and unprofessional.

Dr. Anne Delessio-Parson has a 2017 PhD in Sociology and Demography from Penn State.

"Dissertation:

My work places plant-based eating practices – especially the abstention from meat – in social context.

The first part of my dissertation examines the consequences of plant-based diets for population health in a country with a long tradition of vegetarianism – India, where one in three people follow a lacto-vegetarian diet.

The second part examines vegetarianism in a country with a long tradition of beef – Argentina, where the asado (≈barbeque) forms part of the national identity. I lead the project Pathways to and Social Networks of Vegetarians, which uses respondent-driven sampling to reach the small but growing population of vegans, vegetarians, and their romantic partners in a mid-sized city. I am especially interested in the connections between gender and diet, and the ways that food choices are shaped by the people in our lives."
