A warning would have been welcome, because from my point of view I was interacting mainly with other single-purpose, agenda-driven accounts that flamed me incessantly. Early on in this there was even a very creepy attempt to dox me or somet

Cheddar should already melt nicely. Maybe we're talking about different cheeses called "cheddar"? I've never had American cheddar, maybe it's different than the English kind?

Why is this fortunate? Miyioko makes nut paste and calls it "cheese". It's fortunate that she can keep selling her product under false assumptions? To be clear, the false assumptions are that her product is cheese, when it&#x

If you want variety of bacteria, then the highest is probably in milk kefir, and the second highest in aged, hard cheese. Kefir, we don't even know how many or what bacteria it hosts, but we know it's a lot. Different studies have

So we agree that a vegan diet is just another shitty diet that carries a risk of heart disease (also stroke and pregnancy complications), just like other shitty diets. And just because other diets are also shitty and unhealthy, doesn't

No. Who said that, other than vegans? It's a lie. Everybody else, the IPCC, the FAO, environmental organisations, they all say we need to shift diets, in particular western diets, towards a plant-based diet: > Such recommendations i

You've been vegan for 19 years but does that mean you haven't had any meat or animal products in those 19 years? Because from what I understand, most vegans do eat at least some meat and animal products once in a while. "Brea

No objection there from me. I'm just saying that as far as I understand it, one important reason why climate change is bad is that it directly affects ecosystems. That we also destroy ecosystems directly must also be stressed as you sa
