eliminating the last 10%, 1% of animal products from you diet can be just as much (or more) difficulty as eliminating the first 90%. i encourage people to fret a lot more over day to day habits, eliminating the first 90% of consumption.
Could some vegetarian diets increase harm by offsetting protein from meat with eggs?
this is my understanding + what villesokk seems to be explicitly claiming.
unsure if eating vegan at my dining hall matters if they order the same amount of vegan/non-vegan food regardless of demand or throw away unserved leftovers.
i would assume that there is some correlation with demand and supply here.
i am not zero amount sold on the solidarity-with-animals case. if we are going to claim that factory farming is super fucked up it seems pretty hard to be taken seriously if we habitually fund it.
but i do spend a small fortune on beyond meat here in the bahamas (where it is about twice as expensive) and its easy to wonder if this really makes sense to do at all.

Quite technical, but with a strong socially concerned bent.
