    As a vegetarian I find this comic offensive. The last panel should be that dude viscously ripping apart the vegetable people with his teeth.

    Just because I don’t eat animals doesn’t mean I won’t body slam you if you’re between me and a potato.

    Except that you’re eating way more plants if you eat animals than if you just eat plants, as animals eat lots of plants.

      Depends on the animal. Home raised chicken, for instance, can almost live on human lefts.

      Insects also eat things that humans really do not consume, for instance.

      They don’t really eat the same thing, do they?

        An average broiler chicken diet is composed of 42.8% corn and 26.4% soybeans for protein, and about 14% bakery meal.

        Source

        Edit: 25 million chicken are getting killed daily in the US.

      So what you’re saying is that for each animal you eat, you save a lot of plants?

        No, for each animal you eat you’re eating lots of plants in a really inefficient - and needlessly cruel - way

        That would have been correct in the pre-domestication era.

    Taking things too seriously, don’t most plants benefit from their fruit being eaten as part of their lifecycle?

      fun fact, trains in the UK used to dump the sewage from the onboard toilets right on the tracks.

      It wasn’t uncommon to see tomato plants growing on/around the tracks.

      This is because of the fresh tomatos used in sandwiches filtered through british bumholes

      We don’t eat the fruits of carrots and onions, though.

    Are any of those ingredients actually likely to be used in a veggie burger? I feel like I usually just see bean burgers, but I don’t know much about veggie burger options

      Onions should be in everything savory with melded flavors.

        Thats very fair actually. I guess carrots also make a good aromatic frankly

      Tomatoes would be odd, I’ve never seen that. Onions, or at a minimum garlic power, should be in any burger recipe, IMO. Carrots would totally work for a veggie burger, I found this recipe that looks pretty tasty and uses both carrots and onions.

      But disregarding all that; I very rarely eat burgers that don’t have both onions and tomatoes as toppings :P

    you (and the comic maker) should have called it vegan burger, since veggie normally means vegetarian.

      Does it matter? Neither one eats the bull and even if one uses cheese then that doesn’t come from the bull at least. Maybe one of his lovers
