but is it true that you're awfully plain looking?

Maybe I am, but it seems to me, that since you are blindingly ugly, you can´t be too picky.

However, that is neither here nor there, you have already had the opportunity to mount me like a bison, but saw fit to decline the offer. I shan´t make that offer again. hrmph !

If you're susceptible, even light soya-product consumption can cause abdominal oedema. Scrunches up your vital organs.

true but in order to make meat , raise a cow u need its food .... double the trouble

And in order to make a vegetable oil, say, you need to grow an awful lot of unusable plant matl, unless of course you can feed it to some needy livestock.

Yes sure.
we never produce hay to feed cows nor have pastures for their convenience.
o yes and they never share our agricultural output, yes indeed.

we only feed them our agricultural by-products.

Show me the equations and I'll believe you.
PS Most cows don't eat hay nowadays.

Cool. So we ca still eat meat without any problems as long as the Yanks reduce their intake fractionally.

The awkward description of an allergy or food intolerance misses the humorous point I was making about phytoestrogens in soy and can furthermore be generalised to apply to bovine secretions aka. milk, wheat / gluten, etc. ie. Lactose intolerance, coeliac, etc.

Each of us a failed state in stark relief against the backdrop of the perfect worlds we seek.
