The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has predicted substantial price increases for numerous food items in 2013, if not sooner, due to the devastating impact of the current drought on farms across the country. More specifically, prices are expected to increase dramatically for meat and poultry, due to "reduced inventory and higher feed expenses."
Will you be turning to cheaper options, like fast food? Or, will you focus on a plan-based diet? Or, are you staying the course when it comes to your eating habits, regardless of price boom?

I rarely cease to be amazed at the level of ignorance that currently governs human behavior. If the truth were known in the industrialized parts of the Western Hemisphere the way it's been acknowledged in the other half of the world for hundreds of generations no one would be even asking this question. Look in the mirror at your canine teeth then look at the ones on your dog or cat. Now compare molars. Do cats even have molars? No human tooth is as sharp as the dullest cat tooth. Orangutans and gorillas have teeth very much like ours aside from the gorilla'a sharper fangs yet what part of either of their diets consists of any meat at all?
If you could compare internal anatomy as I have you would see still more differences. No part of human anatomy is evolved to be carnivorous. It was a temporary deviation from an ancient herbivorous diet shared with 98 to 99% of all p...

If you could compare internal anatomy as I have you would see still more differences. No part of human anatomy is evolved to be carnivorous. It was a temporary deviation from an ancient herbivorous diet shared with 98 to 99% of all primates when we were struggling to survive after coming out of the trees. And it's why we learned to cook - to avoid getting food poisoning and crippling parasites from animal sources. Now we even cook apples. But they are really better raw as is almost any fruit. But Sushi aside how long would you survive eating meat raw? And what natural predator cooks their food?
