Epicurious Goes Woke: Halts beef recipes to be more "Pro-Planet"

Impossible burgers taste like burgers made by a space alien who decided to make them in a star-trek like replicator based on what people told him it tastes like.

People who say that shit tastes and has the same texture as beef must smoke a lot of cigarettes or do other things to destroy their taste buds.

And replicating the part that it weeps/bleeds like medium-done beef is a really weird flex to me. Makes me think that the hippies who made this shit used to get teased for cooking their meat well done. Originally Posted by GastonGlock

I find it curious that, rather than just not eating this stuff, you guys complain about it, and deride anyone who does.

I don't eat it, and I'm not a vegetarian, but the only person who needs to know that, is me.

Hope y'all feel better soon! Originally Posted by pfunkdenver

UUUOOOH .. Sir!


BAHHAHAAAAA


ok. teasing you two whiners aside .. first the entire "push" to remove real beef is just another part of the "Green Scam" and that's exactly what this is. the eco Nazis like AOC think cow farts are going to kill the planet with methane. ridiculous. one wonders if AOC and the rest of her gang of fucking idiots realize that protein is an essential part of any healthy diet. i'm not going to bother researching how much real protein is in these veg burgers but i'll bet it's far less than real meat per same serving size.


so let's say i'm right and it is far less, so much less that it becomes an nutritional issue. what would little AOC do about that? i'm quite sure she'll come up with some sort of protein pills or shakes (which already exist) and just say .. "drink a protein shake!"


the point of course is not only does this kill an important industry, that industry needs to be replaced with another industry, in this case agriculture. gotta grow them veggies for them fake burgers!!


so what's the point here? does AOC and her cunt squad think if you get rid of cow farts that the massive increase in agriculture to replace it using all sorts of modern chemicals is any better for poor suffering Mother Gaia? probably but she's a card carrying idiot.


if you'd like to read more on AOC and her "cow fart" obsession allow me to recommend the parity novel written by the world famous author and twittybird superstar .. catturd

Epicurious is racist. You can't have a barbeque without beef. First meat. Then menthol cigarettes. What next? 40oz containers? Let my peoples go.

Very simple explanation for Epicuious's action and very simple solution:

They have a constitutional right to publish what the desire within certain bounds (libel,etc.) They are not required to publish what an individual or group wishes. The market will determine if their model succeeds financially.

No one is REQUIRED to read their content or choose to solely utilize their recipes that defer beef, just as no one is REQUIRED to eat beef.

I like beef, will still eat beef, and won't be subscribing to Epicurious, but may use one of their online recipes for taters or good veggies. That's my choice.

Those who like to expose their constitutional rights also need to recognize that those same rights extend to others, even if of different opinion.

Not that big a deal and not worth the bandwidth vis a vis other issues.

They do not, however, have a right to be free of criticism. And I've elected to talk about how hollow the gesture is.
"I've got buddies who think this whole thing is a Chinese-led globalist plot to reduce us all back to a serf peasantry, and have us all eating bugs while the rich get to eat proper animals."

And also the right to propagate blather as well. Do you (or your "buddies") really believe this shit? Or just spout off?

See, the point is you can eat beef if you want, or you can choose to not eat beef if you want. Same goes for broccoli, anchovies, sushi, etc. Cooking magazines can choose to focus on whatever recipe types they choose. No one is FORCING you to eat any ingredient or read or cook any recipe. It's your choice, but NOT your RIGHT to force your view on others. Why not let the MARKET decide? Don't buy Epicurious if you choose(I won't)..others may choose otherwise, but that's their prerogative, not yours to dictate.
