> And yes, I've known plenty of vegans who literally want to outlaw meat regardless of need...

Okay, whether or not this is true, projecting such motivations onto me is prejudice. Until you experience it firsthand, you cannot fathom the way American society often treats you the moment you mention you don't eat meat, or advocate for less meat consumption in general.

Everyone's insecurities and prejudices come out, just like now. Lecture after lecture... and then I also have to hear about how non-meat-eaters aggressively push their views on everyone. My experience is the opposite. So let's dispense with the prejudice and graciously interpret each other's comments.

> can you honestly say that a half a century of "low fat" and mostly fat sources that are woefully incomplete on essential fatty acid profiles

This is another straw man. I am not advocating for low-fat products. I am not even vegan. You don't know anything about what I support and are putting words in my mouth.
