When you buy an animal burger, you are effectively taking away the possibility of healthy nutritious plant based food from starving children. So many calories wasted.
Mahatma Gandhi:
“The earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.” “To my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being.”
In Frances Moore Lappé’s 1971 book Diet for a Small Planet, she wrote that eating animals is “like driving a Cadillac” in terms of waste — a metaphor later rephrased by activists as “eating a hamburger is like stealing bread from the world’s hungry.”
