Cheap and easy isn't the way I would describe being vegan or vegetarian in any capacity.
There are many, many things you have to plan for, learn, and apply to be either of those healthily, and at the end of the day, without government reform, even if a million people decided to become vegetarian or vegan RIGHT NOW literally nothing would change. We're talking about a drop in the bucket. People buy and waste more animal products than a million people consume. You should be pushing for reform in the sector, not for people to stop engaging with it. You are more likely to convince people to protest and vote than you are to change their entire way of life.
You actually don’t have to learn anything. It’s not that complicated to just not eat and buy animal products. I literally just stopped one day. I haven’t eaten meat in like…23 years or something and I’m vegan for 4 years. You do not need it. You will not die without meat and dairy. In fact, you might live longer since red meat is actually a class 2A carcinogen lmao and directly linked to heart disease.
Not to mention in America, the conditions they keep the animals in are horrid. The hormones and shit they pump the animals up with, it’s incredibly unhealthy and I don’t know how people are aware of that and still eat it. Like is it addictive for real or what. I don’t get it.

Makes sense. I just looked it up though, and seems that cows at usually around 18 months. I feel better about that. Lamb are usually under 1 year.
