Amen. Bet my ass that most people dying of heart attack are in fact not vegan. On the other hand i would like to know how many vegans are suffering from malnutrition. Some morons will.
I hunt for a large percentage of the meat I consume, and I use every part of the animal I can. Can't eat hide, horns, hooves, or feathers, and nuero tissue is inadvisable. But nearly everything else gets used in my house, including organs and bones.
I know that always pisses me off. knew this guy once who ate a very unhealthily meat centric diet, but be only are grocery store ground and prime cuts, so he kept having nutritional deficiencies and it was really frustrating to help him, because, like, yes, just eat a god damn vegetableand you can stay out of the ER, but you dont even need to do that if you just eat more parts of the fucking cow!
Organ meats can be fantastic and plenty of cultures eat them. Beef kidney is especially good on it's own, but other organs add a lot of flavor. When we make thanksgiving stuffing we chop up all the turkey organs fine and fry them, then mix them in the stuffing. We don't tell anyone in the family (don't worry none are vegetarian or vegan) and they love it. If you eat meat you might be pleasantly surprised by organs.
And uhh.. sorry for posting this on vegan group. For what it's worth I think you guys are great and morally correct.
