In addition, our teeth are not those of carnivores. We have teeth similar to
other primates. We can't tear into our food. We chomp like a chimp. Our
teeth are suited to nuts, seeds, grains, fruit, leaves, tubers and roots. When
we try to shred meat, even the most tender steak or well cooked chicken, our
teeth tend to mash it down rather than prepare it properly for digestion. Our
gall bladders work overtime trying to deal with animal fat. All animal flesh
has fat in it, even the stuff listed as "lean". The meat gets stuck between our
chompers and causes tooth decay whereas if we ate rice, beans, plants and
fruits, we would haves less reason to floss.
Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors
too!

Good point Natalie. The way they are being reared is a huge problem. I live in
cattle country. I know that animals are only valued for dollars. I hear a lot
listening to farmers, I don't say anything, that way I learn more about that
mentality. I hugely detest gestation crates for pigs, who so do not deserve
that. I write my congressman, sign petitions and share all that on FB. Because
there are a ton of people out there that don't know where their food came from!
