    There is nothing unfuflfilling about beans and rice. This is the staple diet of almost a billion people. We are just so far removed from reality that we think of a healthy diet as a terrible punishment.

      You did not understand my comment very well. Beans and rice are great staple foods, I love them. A well rounded diet involves more than just beans and rice.

      Beans and rice yummy farts in farts again my oh my another one bites to dust tummy

      On a more serious note didn’t early humans live a hunter gather life style eating both meats fish plants and vegetables I mean there’s alot of evidence that shows that our ancestors lived hunter gather life styles also I’m fairly certain that most people didn’t just eat beans and rice for billons of years

        When a bad hunt means your kids starve plants seem like a much safer option.
        Human ancestors had a varying diet that was regional and included bugs and wild plants and yes some animal protein. There are some estimates that they regularly consumed like 100g of fiber a day

        Literally all modern evidence points to the healthier tribal and nomadic humans having animal-based diets.

        Healthier teeth, healthier skin and hair, longer lifespans, better musculature.

          I mean that was my original point but I don’t think I portrayed that correctly at all early humans lived hunter gather life styles I think that’s quite obvious at this point especially with all the scientific evidence pointing toward it plus moving around alot across continents and having to go out and hunt fish and forage for there food meant that they were way healthier stronger and fitter as you said as there getting a healthier diet and lots of exercise

          what op said that for billons of years we lived of “beans and rice” which makes no sense whatsoever although I could be wrong I know beans on there own have a good selection of the nutrients you’ll need to sustain yourselve but im not to sure on rice plus I’m fairly certain you can’t eat rice and beans forever you’ll have to supplement it with something as well

          Plus I haven’t read anywhere about humans sustaining themselves for billons of years on just a diet of beans and rice

            I actually said a billion people live on it, but why let reading get in the way of a defensive rant about meat.

              And why actually bother to listen to and connect with another human being when you can snap back with a snarky comment instead?

                The above persons whole comment is a reaction to something completely different from what I said. Was there an attempt to listen and connect on their part? Not really.

                  See, you’re not reading or listening to what I’m saying either. That shows the problem is you.

                  Take a step back and really think hard about what’s actually happening.
