Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    Im not saying we should eat meat all day everyday, we should definitely reduced it or stop that, but not eating any animal products does cause malnutrition (as by above source) and supplementing our everyday life with pills isn’t exactly a great way to live.

    Im ok with vegetarianism, im more or less myself, but vegan is something that isn’t suitable for humans naturally.

      “poorly planned vegan diets that do not replace the critical nutrients found in meat, can lead to serious micronutrient deficiencies.” (from the article)

      Yeah, switching your diet to anything has that risk, obviously. You need to understand what you eat.

      And your daily life is already supplemented with pills, the only difference is they’re given to the animals you eat. Cattle is given B12 because they don’t graze and don’t have access to enough cobalt.
