Uber driver had a reason for being vegetarian I hadn't heard before: "if you add up all the hamburgers people eat, there aren't enough cows for that, so meat must be fake"

@jonny I'm so confused although sorta impressed with the 4d chess thinking. Why wouldn't a vegetarian eat a burger if they were sure it didn't have meat in it?

@chris_e_simpson @jonny
He's sure it has meat not from cows in it. -

@jonny let me guess, he asked a chatbot?

@emma
Hell no he hates the ai and social media, all full of lies, which I heartily agree with -
@jonny That's one way to get there, I suppose
@brad
All I could do is give him a hell ya -

@chris_e_simpson
It was unclear what the non meat material was, it was bad whatever it is though -

@jonny Well there's a point of view you aren't going to argue with, anyway

@jonny @troublewithwords He may have read 11/22/63 by Stephen King and thinks that's where the meat is coming from? That book changed me, too. But like, I'd still eat the burgers!

@jonny Despite stereotypes of vegetarians being preachy, over the years I've got many unsolicited comments from meat eaters telling me science "proves" vegetarianism is unhealthy/makes me a pussy/I'm missing out.
It helps to always have a smartarse answer to the inevitable question. Why don't you eat meat? Because I enjoy killing plants. Because animals are stealing all our food, we need to get it first. Because there's no such thing as mad broccoli disease. etc. etc.

@BoysenberryCider @jonny Although there is the explosive lettuce disease that's been in the news lately.

@jonny Two things:
1. Your driver greatly underestimates how many cows there are.
2. Most fast food burgers aren't 100% beef. I forget what the limit is, but the USDA permits up to a certain percentage of TVP added to beef before it has to be labelled differently. 20%? If I remember correctly, above 20%, it starts to no longer taste or feel like real meat. -

️@Lucaas @jonny @troublewithwords I feel like it's more likely to be a Soylent Green style of thing.
