Well, that sucks. But then we have to ask which is better: farming fish like this, or overfishing wild-caught fish?

Which is the lesser of two evils? That doesn’t mean that those are the only two options. Perhaps there’s a healthier way to farm fish. But, remember, it’s a farm. It’s not the same as the open ocean.

To avoid all of this, the next best option is to just recreate fish meat in a lab.

Personally, I like wild-caught fish. I don’t buy farmed fish because research suggests that wild-caught has more vitamins and minerals than farmed. But I’m a hypocrite because I also think farming fish is a good idea–that is, unless we can figure out how to boost the wild fish population…

So, if you want fish, what’s a man to do?

This company could be exactly the same as that Scottish fish farm, and you would never know based on the website. How could you?

You just wanna go to the supermarket and buy some guilty-free fish. How could it get so complicated?

Neither I nor you can change what the food industry does, but it is good to know and be aware.

So, here we are again: just do what you can, and don’t stress about it.

Don’t obsess over it, but do the best you can, then go about your life.

Before I became aware of my health, I used to rely on the government to keep the food industry in check and to keep our food healthy, come to find out they were part of the problem.

I think so - probably in many countries as true of the food industry as it is of the pharmaceutical industry? :angry:

Right. Only a few years ago did I learn that the food guide pyramid is not valid.

I’ve read that the 11 servings of the bread/pasta/grains group was a political move to boost grain sales–at the cost of the public’s health.

there were massive surpluses of grain… this recommendation for 3 to 4 serves a day - after it went through the senior bureaucrats within the USDA - increased to an extraordinary 6 to 11 serves. An effective means to address a grain surplus, no doubt.

George Carlin was right: don’t trust ANYTHING your government tells you.

I remember back in the day you would hear if you drank / an alcoholic beverage or ate such and such times of the day it was good for you, and years down the line I hear doing those things might not be as healthy as they claim. but sales went up on those Items, Go figure

Yeah, you really just gotta do what works for you. If you wanna go vegan, go ahead. Some people get sick after going vegan. Some people get healthier.

Some people need a low-fat diet. Others need higher-fat diets because they’re weight training or running long distance.

Some people gain weight if they eat before going to bed. As for me, I need to eat before going to bed. Everyone’s different. It takes time to figure it out, but our bodies have different needs.

Ok, I see you

Nerdy White Kid Kills Look At Me Now

Yo, yellow cheese, eggs, white pancake batter
Put a little bit up on the skillet
When it starts to bubble, flip it over with your spatula
Yeah, yeah, that ■■■■ look like my breakfast
I gotta remember to flip the motherfucker over
After cookin’ it for thirty seconds
Ladies love me; I got my OJ
Everybody said to do another fast rap to this beat
So I said “Okay.”
But I’ma speed it up real, real, real fast
‘Til the whole damn bottle is gone
And I’m challenging Busta, Watsky and Twista
Any of you rap kids, follow along! C’mon!

[Hook]
Cook with me now, unh!
Cook with me now, unh! Unh!
I’m making pancakes
Cook with me now, unh!
Cook with me now, unh! Unh!

[Verse 2]
Fresher than a muh’fucka
Chris Brown broke up with Rihanna
So he’s lookin’ for another silly idiotic ho that he can beat up
I wish that he was man enough to get inside the octagon
I’d kick him in the noggin, like I’m Lyoto Machida
Front kick to the face just by me throwin’ my feet up
Winkin’ at Rihanna, “Baby, please show us your D-cups!”
I’m givin’ it to the man, the cakes are stickin’ right to the pan
Your fate is imminent, I’ma diminish it
Got the weed to smoke to re-up
It’s done, that’s done, that cake is done!

[Verse 3]
Let’s go! Gotta butter up another one
And put it on the skillet, couple minutes ‘til it’s done-done
Ain’t nobody fuckin’ with this kid
So tell Jerry Sandusky I’m gonna kill him with a stun gun
Come-come get a-get a-get a-get a crumb
Hit a spitta with a fit of venom when I split a drum
Take another visit in a minute
Where the menaces to the society is In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
You’re Danny Devito when I belittle, literally it’ll better you
Battling anybody with a better view ahead of you
Like bitter batter-batter I’ma hit you with an auto mo’ battery
Bada-bing, bada-bada-boom, boom!
I’m the king, better get a clue
Get offended when I’m sentimental and I spit at you
I’m thinkin’ about my rhythm, it’s dope and much better
These rappers think they’re animals; nope, it’s Chuck Testa
Gotta get up, the economy’s a little brutal to me
The dichotomy ain’t suitable
I gotta go to Pluto for a little bit of comedy
Or something beautiful
There’s nothing beautiful about this world
I’m gonna pucker up my lips to barf
Gonna choke a fuckin’ rapper in his hipster scarf
I’m never gonna put another piece of music out deliberately
If it isn’t genuine and grips the heart
Winter’s hard, so have some pancakes!

[Outro]
Made by me, motherfucker!
The Chael Sonnen of rap music
Enjoy your breakfast!
Mac Lethal, biatch!

Ever dined at a michelin star restaurant? I haven’t. In case you haven’t either, here are some tips.

Ever wonder why fine dining meals are so small?

Honestly, you might still be hungry after your fine dining experience. Why not lower your inhibitions, loosen your tie, and go get a burger!

Eating at the park, near a lake, or out in the woods sounds like fun to me. You can keep it simple or jazz it up.

If it’s a spur of the moment kinda deal, grab a blanket, head to your destination, and on the way, stop some place and get some sandwiches and drinks. Simple.

It’s a fun date night idea. When there’s a full moon or the stars are out, grab the blanket and some snacks. Done. Why not bring a book and read a few paragraphs outloud to each other?

This guy packed that picnic like he’s expecting his friends to pass through. haha

This site said $50 for a stargazing picnic date. Yeah, I don’t think so. The whole point is to save money. I say keep it under $20. Don’t pack too many drinks. The bathroom will likely be far away.

haha yup. I bet she packed the sensible plate on right: cherries, crackers and cheese. And he packed everything else.

She was probably thinking "What the f—?!! He saw the look on her face and picked up some flowers for her when they stopped at the gas station.

She thought they were gonna watch the birds and read poetry to each other. Dude ate those Subway wraps, some chips, and took a nap on her.
