I used to be vegan and "eat less meat" is an example of big business corrupting society. If i eat the daily recommended amount of meat it equals from memory 15 cows over 60 years, I don't eat caged which is chicken, pigs and fish, and don't eat lamb a lot so always beef.
We, as in humanity feed more crop waste to animals than food we grow for them, the eat less meat is the reason chicken has barely moved in 20 years. Red meat and fat is now my friend, it has meant weight loss and better health, humans as they grow older absorb less protein so stick to the recommended amount, daily it helps with muscle retention that veganism couldn't do. Vege's are less nutritious, microplastics per gram of food in the hundreds of thousands and half the damage done to our bodies is supposedly from the sprays that are put onto them and in them.
Calories in and calories out aren't the thing when it's beef fat, or full cream, the lies of food companies have changed public perception based on a biased study that didn't control all things. Red meat for the win now, cream in coffee instead of milk, the feeling of fullness means less calories and kgs of food to get the same thing.
If I tell an older diabetic friend I can turn his life around in two weeks he doesn't believe me and now I'm leaner he says I have a higher metabolism and I tell him, I'm as shocked as you but fat storage and accessibility is easier when fat is in your diet and not seed oils, but he's too scared because he doesn't want to make his doctor upset while he takes his muesli with fruit and oat milk in the morning and after five years he's down five kg, I try to tell him have a fat meal in the morning but he's fully convinced if he has a steak it will kill him. It's all madness based on food companies lies what people think is healthy and eat less meat, directly subsidises it.

@Pinkdam When we have massive amounts of obesity and people starving to death, just because of how much debt they hold or basically where they are born and then say "we should just leave it all to choice" is not really a democratic decision that I would expect to be a choice in aggregate by the public if they were given it. Saying we should leave it to choice whether virgins are beheaded to make sure the crops are good this year and saying the entire democratic way of life depends on being able to make the choice and keeping the old way of doing things does not have a leg to stand on, saying we can make informed decisions makes no difference to people dying from too much or too little food and I find it disgusting you would belittle the subject down to just a few people overweight, the massive amounts of over consumption, just because you have money, while others starve, is ultimately undemocratic as the people who are starving don't have any choice. The world has a distribution problem, not a supply problem, last year the world produced enough food for everyone to gain weight, choice shouldn't enter it at all, not whether people get basics or not.
