    I just feed my cats the same beans I feed the children locked in the basement. They both survive just fine with the right supplements.

    I keep seeing that “people are talking about beans”, but I don’t actually see people TALKING about beans. I’m convinced that the joke is, that nobody actually talks about beans. Just talks about how other people are talking about beans…which they aren’t. That’s somehow the joke.

      hohoho… My friend you have fallen into the trap. By me responding to this comment about how nobody is actually discussing beans, we are now engaged in a discussion about beans!

      Thus furthers our plot of packing bean related content into the algorithm. This is the only way to save our timeline from Skynet!

        This is a meta-discussion about beans though. We’re not talking about beans, we’re talking about talking about beans.

      I talk about bean. I love to eat bean, I love to cook it. They are healthy, every inexpensive. If buy can, you can cook very easily but you can do many complicated dish with it. It delicious with meat and without meat and that is the common ground on any cooking community on Lemmy, being vegan or not.

        Also, I have to keep Lemmings focussing on bean because I notice that when note they tend to hate on tea and I won’t let this happened.

    My opinion has actually shifted as a matter of this debate. It used to be “hell no”. Now it’s “no, but maybe we can in the future if the science is done”. It’s pretty clear that there isn’t much research on this, and the few peer reviewed articles on the subject tend to mention exactly how little has been done. What is there suggests that maybe, possibly, with the right diet and supplements, it could be done in the future.

    Don’t make your cat an experiment on this.

    My cat loves beans (as a snack, not a meal). Do not consider this a salvo into that Lemmy civil war. My cat just loves beans and I love him.

      I had a cat that would chase me around the house if I was eating a banana. Wildest thing. They can’t taste sweet as far as I understand it. Never had a cat since that did. I miss that cat.

    I got banned from a pet food sub on reddit for what I thought was a completely innocent question. It’s a touchy subject everywhere apparently. The rumor is that pet food companies are major lurkers on pet subs and use reddit etc as an ad platform.
