What you said is a total myth. First of all, NO ONE need to eat meat or drink milk. Both of these food groups are really bad for human health. They waste the land, pollute our waterways and kill Americans because consumption of them creates bad health. Fifty percent of Americans die of heart disease, a disease almost unknown in plant-eating societies.

All of the people on earth, including the ones who are starving now, could eat and thrive if the grain fed to farm animals went directly to human food.

And the price of meat and dairy products are artificially low because these animals are fed slop--chicken feces, dead chickens, animal blood, all sorts of things consumers have no idea they are eating when they consume dead animals. And because the animals are so crowded that they would all die unless they were pumped full of antibiotics, consumers are eating medicines also. Oh, and don't forget all the pus you drink when you drink milk! I really don't think most people have any idea at all the way the milk and meat products they eat are produced. I don't think they would eat them if they did.
