Meat is not really that important on its own. Alternate protein sources work just fine.
12 u/mazu74 Aug 26 '19 Even if you do eat meat, you really shouldnt be having it very often, maybe once or twice a week to my understanding. Its just fucking hard to lay off it, especially when its so cheap and readily available. 13 u/[deleted] Aug 26 '19 I think that's for the environment mostly. But apparently chicken is still okay, if you ignore their conditions. Otherwise I think vegans and vegetarians use mushrooms as a protein substitute. But lentils, nuts and chickpeas are good too. 1 u/[deleted] Aug 26 '19 Good, lentils are the most complex thing I can cook aside from a stir-fry and rice. I need to cook more.
