I did some googling before I commented. It doesn’t have a significant caloric advantage. Triple tofu, but far less than nuts, and only a bit better than beans.
Surely it only contains what was put into it though. If the cow eats food then it must have metabolized that food. Then you eat the cow.
So basically cows are an inefficient way to turn grass into calories. But since there are other plant foods we can actually eat that isn’t much of an argument.
Meat tastes good.
And it’s a dense source of calories.
Plus, vitamin b12
You can get b12 elsewhere.
people rally against supplements without even realizing they inject B12 into the cows, which is kind of insane.
