They taste like McRibs. Some vegetarians stay away from meatlike food. Not me. I’m not a vegetarian but I try to stay away from meat. I don’t eat meat for both health and ethical reasons. I think it’s weird and bad to eat something that’s had a depressing life. Especially after I read articles like this one.
One our trip on I-5 up to Portland, we passed a feedlot: thousands upon thousands of cows. The smell didn’t leave our car for a long while, it seemed to stain our clothes. It stunk bad, we were fearing passing it on our way back. S. looked into it and found the expose about the place. It’ll make you feel bad about ever eating meat.

Don't toy with me--do they really taste like McRibs? If so, I am all over it.
I was walking down the office hallway today, and saw this guy drinking a quart of grape juice in his office. Right out of the big bottle. It struck me as being really fucking weird.
I think I know the feedlots you are talking about. My wife and I drove from LA to SF on I-5 a couple years ago (we had gone from SF to LA along the coast and just wanted to go fast on the way back). I have never seen so many cows, and they were absolutely packed in. It was also really dusty and hazy, which made the whole scene one of the eerier things I've ever seen.
Of course, a couple hours later, we had burgers at In-n-Out.
Want to feel bad about eating meat?
How about Ruth Ozeki's "My Year of Meats"?
Though I am still a carnivore myself, I'm not going to lie, that book really drove home to me the notion of just how vile the beef industry has become.
I've smelt the smell on I-5. Hard to believe there's such a place only an hour away from the mecca of vegetarianism. Cuz it rilly smells like rotting manure, dead bodies and ass. For like 5 miles. 100% evil.
Thank you, Yuriy. Thank you. Thank you.
Meat is so gross. It's gross! especially Mcdonald's meat. but I like to think I'm long past the obnoxious better-than-thou stage. however...anything that tastes like Mcanything...oh my, I have no words, LOL
