    now i remember why i disliked this forum. you guys are so militant.

    it's odd, for one reason or another, everything always seems to turn into an argument.

    on my mom's side, there are a ton of farmers. so i know a little about farming, i spent a lot of time on one as a kid. it's not all sunshine and rainbows i can assure you, but the majority doesn't look like a peta ad either. it just doesn't.

    soybean oil is disgusting. i know this. why anyone would feel the need to inform me of such things when i'm already on a paleo/primal forum, i have no idea. i've read the books. i'm living the lifestyle. i'm already part of the "club".

    and as a result, i'm a lean, fit, happy person!!

    so sometimes i allow a little room in my life for a bun-less burger. deal with it guyy.

    I've noticed that too. It's sad.

    Nobody gives a shit if you're having a burger, with or without bun. It's your hypocritical mocking of the person serving it to you that triggered folks.

    And the even deeper follow-up of hypocrisy of accusing people of being "militant" when they didn't join in on the mocking.

    Onwards and uppers...

    I got a sausage on bread without the bread at a fundraising BBQs (common Saturday morning thing) and even that caused fear and confusion. The customer after me made a point of ordering a sausage "with the bread" so the laughs could continue. It was a strange experience for them.

    People are usually envious when I say I don't eat grains, but eat all the meat & fat I want.

    LOL @ farm vs. feedlot beef. My grandad had a farm, my neighbor has a farm, I have a farm. We all raise/d tasty cattle. That has nothing to do with the meat that goes into storebought food. But that's a personal choice and sometimes you just gotta eat/drink something you know you shouldn't a la 80/20.

    Actually, it was a cow from the US that was detected as having mad cow using Canadian testing methods, which are much more rigorous. Cattle from both sides of the border have tested positive, but the Canadian testing methods are more accurate. If you're that afraid of BSE, look up scrapie. It's been around forever.

    I tend to jump over the counter and hug the cashier before they have a chance to give me a dirty look. Maybe try that next time.
