We should just be talking about the benefits of bananas, they are a great source of potassium!

  Not beananas, ya hoser!

- From now on, we at /c/vegan will promote a strictly banana-based diet in humans. Fruitarians will be tolerated, but only to the extent that they take steps toward removing other fruits from their diet and becoming bananatarian. /s

  Make sure you feed your cats bananas as well.

meanwhile in the dog food discussions:

My dog likes bell pepers

My dog only eats raw racoon meet

my dog eats poop

Dogs, the easiest species to feed

Edit: they will.also eat all the crumbs and spills from the floor saving time on cleaning

- Dogs are nature's vacuum cleaners confirmed

  Dog: Man's overlooked weight-loss aid.
  
  Dog: "You gonna finish that?"
  
  Me: "No."
  
  Dog: Munching noises.

- Dogs have been selectively bred to better handle foods humans eat barring some notable exceptions. Dogs significantly better grain digesting enzyme production than wild candids for example.
  
  My dog has an iron gut based on what she can happily eat

- Dogs, the easiest species to feed
  
  That would be pigs but some dogs are actually quite close to that.

  oh that's true, they even eat human bones... I heard
  
  2
- My dog knows the command "help", which means "oh no I spilled some food on the floor come clean it up"

  This could spectacularly backfire if you ever fall down and can't get up.

- I like dogs ˆ_ˆ

  How do you cook them?

I just feed my cats the same beans I feed the children locked in the basement. They both survive just fine with the right supplements.

39
- Don’t even joke about that. Cats are obligate carnivores, they can’t survive on beans. If you must, let them eat the children.
  
  34
  
  Unfortunately I need the children to satisfy the hag witch.
  
  21
- My chickens never eat beans. I don't think they like them.

I keep seeing that "people are talking about beans", but I don't actually see people TALKING about beans. I'm convinced that the joke is, that nobody actually talks about beans. Just talks about how other people are talking about beans.....which they aren't. That's somehow the joke.

34
- hohoho... My friend you have fallen into the trap. By me responding to this comment about how nobody is actually discussing beans, we are now engaged in a discussion about beans!
  
  Thus furthers our plot of packing bean related content into the algorithm. This is the only way to save our timeline from Skynet!

  This is a meta-discussion about beans though. We're not talking about beans, we're talking about talking about beans.
  
  9
- nobody talks about beans
  
  You need a better friend group. Your network is your net worth
  
  8
- Everyone keep saying "what is beans?"
  
  Nobody saying "how is beans?"
  
  7
  
  Because we all know beans are great.
  
  7
- I talk about bean. I love to eat bean, I love to cook it. They are healthy, every inexpensive. If buy can, you can cook very easily but you can do many complicated dish with it. It delicious with meat and without meat and that is the common ground on any cooking community on Lemmy, being vegan or not.

  Also, I have to keep Lemmings focussing on bean because I notice that when note they tend to hate on tea and I won't let this happened.

I want in on these cat food arguments

18
- You really don't

  I dunno, I kinda like watching the chaos
  
  For now

  YES I DO, GODDAMN IT!

  Nah it's fun because of how stupid it is.

- Easy. Come up with some insane pet feeding scenario, and then assume you saw someone on YouTube vouch for it. Enter discourse. Ensure to present your theory by first saying "I don't know what a cat actually is, but...". Then slowly slide your audience into your scenario about how people in Florida have kept alligators alive by feeding them rotten boat parts with just the right algae and moss on it.

  Studies say that cats can survive just fine if you paralyze them and they inject them with nutrients fluid. Super convenient tbh.

- Ok let me set the ball rolling: Do you think cats should be fed vegan only diet?

  28
  
  I'm not a vegan but I do wonder if given the correct supplements would it really be so bad?

  Lmao is that what the argument is about? My cat eats organic ethically sourced fish because I'm bougie like that

Can I feed my cat an all-bean diet?

17
- Sure, if you can overlook how cruelly beans are raised, etc...
  
  7
  
  Won't anyone do something about the plight of the beans!?
  
  5
- if it's good enough for humans it's probably good enough for cats

  Narrator: as illustrated in Blazing Saddles, it was not good enough for humans

My cat loves beans (as a snack, not a meal). Do not consider this a salvo into that Lemmy civil war. My cat just loves beans and I love him.

12
- I had a cat that would chase me around the house if I was eating a banana. Wildest thing. They can't taste sweet as far as I understand it. Never had a cat since that did. I miss that cat.

The REAL question is how much beans can I feed to a cat, and why does my house smell really bad?

12
I use Arch by the way.

11
- Oh yeah? Well I compiled my own kernel from scratch! for legal reasons this is a joke.

Shaking the veggie tree again? COME AT ME BRUTHOR!

My opinion has actually shifted as a matter of this debate. It used to be "hell no". Now it's "no, but maybe we can in the future if the science is done". It's pretty clear that there isn't much research on this, and the few peer reviewed articles on the subject tend to mention exactly how little has been done. What is there suggests that maybe, possibly, with the right diet and supplements, it could be done in the future.

Don't make your cat an experiment on this.

I got banned from a pet food sub on reddit for what I thought was a completely innocent question. It's a touchy subject everywhere apparently. The rumor is that pet food companies are major lurkers on pet subs and use reddit etc as an ad platform.

- Q: do pets eat food?
  
  A: banned

Can a cat live on impossible burgers made from bean blood?

Obligate dipshits just love circlejerking about vegans, don't they?
