Analysis Of Fred Coleer's Adjust Mindset
In Fred Coleer’s argument, Adjust Mindset, he states that the majority of people need to rely on eating meat in order to survive. Fred points out to why most of society including our health department can’t see the consequences of eating meat. His main point is that if you start becoming vegan, then you’ll less likely become sick and have various diseases or become more intelligent. Others would argue that just because your primary diet is based on consuming meat that doesn’t mean you would be any less smart or become any less sick than a vegetarian. In this case, this wouldn’t change the way of me of being a carnivore because who said vegans aren’t prone to other diseases that aren’t related to the animals that we consume. Others might argue

    Bill Mckibben, author and environmentalist, explains why being a vegetarian is beneficial for the environment in the article "The Only Way to Have a Cow." He argues that the manufacturing of corn and beef releases harmful gasses into the atmosphere. Eating less meat would decrease the amount of those gasses and improve the environment. I believe there is some truth to what McKibben is saying but his tone is slightly like that of someone who is or thinks they are superior.…

    The Vegetarian Myth, written by author Lierre Keith, tackles the ever-heated question: To eat animal products or not to eat animal products? I add the word “products,” after animal because the book should more properly be called the vegan myth. As a former vegan of over twenty years Keith comes from a place of experience, or as she might have it, a bitter experience. Feeling betrayed, in denial, and physically ill from her vegan years, she has made it her goal to reveal the truth and put to rest the Vegetarian notion that abstaining from animal products is the righteous path that is morally correct, will feed the hungry, and lead to greater nutrition. Chapter one, titled “Why This Book” will be the focus of this analysis because it gives an appropriate introduction to Keith’s…

    People tend to pay as much attention to food as they do brushing their teeth. I urge you, however, to take a step back, slow down, and really think about the food you eat. Eating is a complex thing. It may surprise you. And when you actually think about eating, you will eventually come to think about eating meat. This is no accident, meat has it's pull on humanity. And on our world. The choices we make matter. According to the best-selling author Jonathan Safran Foer, eating the meat we know "is certainly the single worst thing that humans can do to the environment"(457). Foer has been recognized by Rolling Stones Magazine and Esquire for his many accomplishments. In one of his works, "Against Meat", Foer covers the relationship of meat and…

    More medical proof has been released about veganism that says it is beneficial and more bountiful than that of our standard American diet. As American’s we are used to french fries, burgers, and milkshakes as our go to dishes. These foods are now being recognized as detrimental to our health over time and/or with persistency. Our culture is rated as a sick and overweight culture. Healthcare is costly in our nation and our food is the cause of this. In 2012, according to the California Healthcare Foundation, the United States spent $2.8 trillion on healthcare. Everyone knows someone who is sick and this is because fast food joints…

    Today’s world is filled with media that aims to influence its viewers. However, not all media is true. Websites and articles try to persuade their viewers that being vegan is what consumers need to do to end animal cruelty. One such article that discusses this matter is Animal, Vegetable, Miserable by Gary Steiner. Steiner claims that meat eaters are self-righteous and commit mass murder against animals (846). However, several articles have proven that Steiner’s claims are false. These articles include: Defense of Eating Meat by Timothy Hsiao, Vegetarian Diets and Bone Status by Katherine Tucker, and Animal Protein Good for Health by Amanda Radke. In addition, the movie Temple Grandin portrays that feedlots have improved the treatment of cattle…

    Prejudice is a common expression in general on a small scale, but there have been many instances where an entire nation’s belief was based on a prejudiced idea. In Harper Lee’s novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, individuals express their version of justice in different ways. The novel is set in the racially separated town of Maycomb, Alabama in the 1930s during the Great Depression. The main characters are all involved in a plot in which narrow mindedness leads to pain and suffering. . In Maycomb County, prejudice rapidly spreads because of blindly brought up racist citizens and their need to blame things on someone else, but this stereotyping can be stopped when an individual defends what they believe, despite society’s beliefs.…

    Animals Vs Vegetarianism

    Vegetarians do not eat any meat but still consume egg and dairy products. However, the egg and dairy industry may also raise their animals in poor conditions, even organic, free-range, or “certified humane” farms. The male infant laying hens “are invariably killed as soon as they have been sexed” because they have “no commercial value” (Mason and Singer 279). Price could still arise as an issue for many because similar to the free-range and certified humane meat, these types of eggs and dairy products are also generally more expensive. “Veganism is a sure way of completely avoiding participation in the abuse of farm animals” which is what Singer believes is the only sure way of avoiding the unethical implications of eating factory farmed food (Mason 279). Singer gives compelling evidence and asserts that going vegan, despite the other alternatives, is the only sure way to avoid taking part in the abuse of animals. Since vegans do not consume any animal based products at all, they completely ensure that they are not promoting the abuse of farm animals anywhere in the production process. He further maintains that no matter how drastic the change away from supporting the factory farming industry could be on the individual at first, not doing so simply because it is difficult is an unsound moral…

    Vegetarian Vs Vegetarian

    • 639 Words
    • 3 Pages

    A very common misconception is the mislabeling and generalization of those considering themselves to be vegetarians. Vegetarian is used to describe people who exclude meat, poultry, fish, or any other animal derived food from their diet. However, within the generalized term "vegetarian" come numerous different forms of the lifestyle, each classified based on the degree to which animal products are excluded from their diet and the reasoning such as ethical, religious, health. The different groups of vegetarianism fall along an imaginary spectrum, with semi-vegetarians, who are often excluded entirely due to behaviors conflicting with the practice, on one end of the spectrum and at the opposite end are vegans, the strictest of vegetarianism. The semi vegetarians, or those who exclude animal products from their lifestyle to some degree, are often banished by true vegetarians. This is partially due to the fact that semi vegetarians consume some sort of animal products, thereby contradicting the definition of the term. However, semi vegetarians' motivations are highly different. Some are obligated by religious beliefs to refrain from eating particular types of meats. Others follow the lifestyle for health concerns; say perhaps a person chooses to not eat red-meat because of cholesterol problems. Another possible motivation would be pure personal preference. Even though semi vegetarians fall short, they still obtain some of the positive health benefits that vegetarianism brings. Although meat is both healthy and harmful to your body it has its own…

    As the article was ending he began to try too hard to convince the reader and ended up losing the interest. He seemed to be blaming the entire world's problems on meat consumption. The problem is not eating the meat; it is how the meat is processed. Pace stated “Most of today's modernized farms have long, windowless sheds in which animals live like prisoners their entire lives” (Pace 355) He is saying that the way farms are being run now a days are destroying the environment and that is why eating meat is bad. Think back hundreds of years ago when the Native Americans used to roam North America. The animals were free, then hunted down and eaten. No one seemed to have a problem with animal consumption back then. The way to improve farms and the environment is not by not eating them, it is by changing they way they are processed. Even if most of the world decides to become a vegetarian the processing process will remain the same and the overpopulated animals will be killed the same, but this time it will go to waste because no one will eat it.…
