I heard about them on discovery about 5 years ago, I thought of buying one to make me a crowbar so I could crowbar the printer with it.
edit: lol if you want to print chocolate you put some chocolate in it
Michael Pollan is a fucking genius when it comes to food. He has some lectures about food and meat consumption on YouTube.

The amount of gasses released by livestock succeeds that of cars. That’s one reason people should eat less meat. A little over 10 billion animals are slaughtered each year for consumption, and that’s just America (and then a whole nation gets upset when a woman abuses ONE cat).
Meat is not supposed to be eaten in such large quantities, and to make matters even worse the quality of the meat sucks because of the way they breed the animals. It’s affecting health dramatically, the environment and the quality of food.
Meat is supposed to be eaten in vast quantities, and selective breeding has brought us high-yield animals which increase the available food from each slaughter. Better butchering practices, enabled by the vast and repetitive meat industry’s search for perfecting their method, have increased the quality of harvested meat, by knowing how to deal with the less healthy bits (as well as using modern devices to measure the meat quality more accurately).
You mean they feed them genetically modified food instead of grass to make them fatter, you mean they put thousands of them in a space where there’s so little room they have to cut the tails off to prevent others from eating it. You mean they inject the animals with certain stuff to make sure they stay alive long enough to be slaughtered.
Yes that’s some high quality meat right there, good thing heart disease, cancer and stroke is not a big deal in America cough
Not to mention all the junk that comes along with it in the cooking process…
pretty sure tiki was joking
just for that comment I’m going to take it seriously
I didn’t know they had corn in the Old World.
I blame anti- illegal-alien policies which have lawncare companies afraid to sell off their trimming harvests. The lack of cheap grass trimmings, as well as the availability of subsidized corn products, is responsible for that. Not the fact we eat meat.
Oh, so they’re allowed to eat meat but we’re not? You’re a traitor to humanity.
Well so do you.
If we weren’t dying of those, we’d be dying of what this stuff, again, prevents. You’re lucky to live long enough to experience heart failure, and it’s been found that even in perfect dietary health, humans will eventually succumb to heart disease. You can’t blame death on a prevalent habit. Vegans die too.
Guess which country has the highest percentage of vegans? India.
Now guess which country has the most malnutrition.
Finally, something we can agree upon. I’m also sick of fat raw red-onion slices on my burgers. That shit should be diced and seared. If I wanted teary-eyed burning in every bite, I’d go and get it in the much better form of Horseradish sauce.
Haha I knew he was serious all along.
The top three killers (cardiovascular disease, cancers, stroke) are FAR more common in places like the USA then they are in Japan (the example I mentioned before). Things like type 2 Diabetes are now also much more comon among younger people.
Obviously SOMETHING is causing this, it’s a combination of a sedentary lifestyle, smoking and above all a bad diet (in America, lots of meat / softdrinks / highly processed foods / little to no fruits and vegies).
All I’m trying to say is that if people stop eating so much meat you could solve many health issues, environmental issues and you no longer have to slaughter billions of animals each year. Humans don’t need the amount of meat the average American consumes each year (unless you’re a bodybuilder but that’s a whole different story).
edit:
Also, I’m not a vegan…
Only two and a half of those sound unhealthy. One is carbonated, and Processed Foods gets the half.
I had a bowl of egg-and-spinach tonight, and it tasted to me as nutritious as possible without slicing into some muscle. There was not a lot of fat in there, and there was probably less cholesterol than a good cut, too, but good nutrition supersedes a minor health fret.
I would like to see some definitive proof from the anti meat crowd here that it is actually unhealthy. You guys are aware that for 99% of human evolution meat was the mainstay of our diet yes? That beans, grains and other sources of protein and complex carbs didn’t enter the picture in any real way until about 500 generations ago? How can the very thing that our bodies evolved to metabolize into energy be bad for us? And why is it that heart disease and obesity have sky rocketed in the decades since we have been told the evils of meat and the goodness of grains?
I think the picture becomes a bit clearer when we look at a the book “Health Conditions and Disease Incidence Among The Eskimos of Labrador,” Dr. Samel Hutton reported on the Inuit before the addition of western foods. The diet of the Inuit is cpmprise dof mostly meat.
He studied them personally from 1902 to 1913, and had access to the detailed birth and death records kept by missionaries from the previous century. Guess what he found? Old age in the Inuit population began at age 60 and many lived beyond that age.
Average life expectancy 1900-1913 for anyone else? 45 to 50 years.
Watch the documentary Burbinator mentioned before named ‘Food inc’ and you’ll see how ‘healthy’ your meat really is (the mass-produced, processed meats).
Overconsumption of these meats is one of the reasons so many people are overweight.
edit:
Eskimos don’t get their meat from animal factories, they don’t process their meat, they don’t feed the animals foods they’re not supposed to eat nor pump them full of growth hormones, anti-biotics and the list goes on…
Also, do you honestly think that we get older these days because we eat more meat? What nonsense… Most people today would recommend a diet mostly comprised of plants and little meat (with several exceptions like bodybuilding like I mentioned before)
As I already stated. I do not eat mass produced meats. Though I am sure the same goes for your factory produced vegetables and grains as well.
Edit: Also, th reason people are overweight is really a by product of the mass subsidation of corn, not overconsumption of meat
Meat plays a big factor as well, think of things like hamburgers. It’s not just the meat, but also everything that comes with it.
And what do you mean you don’t buy mass produced meat, almost the entire industry is controlled by just a handful of major corporations. Unless you directly buy your meat from a local farmer you have no idea whether or not those animals came from factories or farms.
edit:
Nope I get all my stuff locally and home grown with the exception of a few fruits. The ones that do come from other countries are not processed (obviously)
Diabeetus, this discussion is not about you personally. It’s about the majority who do eat pretty much only mass produced processed meats.
And the point is not at all whether or not we’re supposed to eat meat. It’s how much meat we eat.
Generally speaking, people eat way too much meat, and not nearly enough vegetables, fruit, etc.
Americans have really weird diets >_>
The people you meet playing games are redonkulous. I’ve met several people who just ate fast food all day… they’d be like “brb getting breakfast at McDonald’s”, “Brb ordering pizza”, “Brb eating my dog”.
I try not to generalize but sometimes you can’t deny there’s a bunch of people who fit the stereotype perfectly… I mean, go eat a real goddamn meal for a change fatty.
And also there’s a few who think they’re healthy despite eating fast food all day because they’re still “in shape”. As if having a fast metabolism = being healthy.
brb ordering pizza
all I can say about this thread
Hypocrites, hypocrites everywhere.
