We should just be talking about the benefits of bananas, they are a great source of potassium!
Not beananas, ya hoser!
From now on, we at /c/vegan will promote a strictly banana-based diet in humans. Fruitarians will be tolerated, but only to the extent that they take steps toward removing other fruits from their diet and becoming bananatarian. /s
Make sure you feed your cats bananas as well.
Hey, listen here, we don’t allow this kind of dangerous, abusive advice on this platform, and I’ve reported this comment. A cat is an obligate beanitarian, and by feeding it a diet of bananas, you’re slowly killing it, despite claiming to care about the wellbeing of animals and non-banana plants. If you have an ethical problem with beans, don’t own a cat; it’s that simple.
Take your beans and shove them

I nearly scrolled passed this without fully appreciating it.
This shit is bananas!
meanwhile in the dog food discussions:
- My dog likes bell pepers
- My dog only eats raw racoon meet
- my dog eats poop
Dogs, the easiest species to feed
Edit: they will.also eat all the crumbs and spills from the floor saving time on cleaning
Dogs are nature’s vacuum cleaners confirmed
Dog: Man’s overlooked weight-loss aid.
Dog: “You gonna finish that?”
Me: “No.”
Dog: Munching noises.
Dogs have been selectively bred to better handle foods humans eat barring some notable exceptions. Dogs significantly better grain digesting enzyme production than wild candids for example.
My dog has an iron gut based on what she can happily eat
Dogs, the easiest species to feed
That would be pigs but some dogs are actually quite close to that.
oh that’s true, they even eat human bones… I heard
Yup, I heard you got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies’ digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don’t want to go sievin’ through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, “as greedy as a pig”.
…for the sake of the piggies’ digestion
yep because they’ll even eat the theeth and any artificial work done to it, but they will poop it out later… and we all know how that turned out for ol’ bobby
My dog knows the command “help”, which means “oh no I spilled some food on the floor come clean it up”
This could spectacularly backfire if you ever fall down and can’t get up.
When I’m sick she turns into an anxious mess. So useless. She can’t even call my doctor.
I like dogs
ˆ_ˆ
Oh, dogs…
Yeah, I like dags.
How do you cook them?
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.
Don’t even joke about that. Cats are obligate carnivores, they can’t survive on beans. If you must, let them eat the children.
Unfortunately I need the children to satisfy the hag witch.
My chickens never eat beans. I don’t think they like them.
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.
nobody talks about beans
You need a better friend group. Your network is your net worth
Everyone keep saying “what is beans?”
Nobody saying “how is beans?”
Because we all know beans are great.
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.
I want in on these cat food arguments
You really don’t
I dunno, I kinda like watching the chaos
For now
Nah it’s fun because of how stupid it is.
YES I DO, GODDAMN IT!
Easy. Come up with some insane pet feeding scenario, and then assume you saw someone on YouTube vouch for it. Enter discourse. Ensure to present your theory by first saying “I don’t know what a cat actually is, but…”. Then slowly slide your audience into your scenario about how people in Florida have kept alligators alive by feeding them rotten boat parts with just the right algae and moss on it.
Studies say that cats can survive just fine if you paralyze them and they inject them with nutrients fluid. Super convenient tbh.
I have heard of studies 🤔
“Show me the fucking udder on a strawberry” is one of the greatest punchlines in the history of the medium, if not all of humanity 🤣🤣🤣
Ok let me set the ball rolling: Do you think cats should be fed vegan only diet?
I’m not a vegan but I do wonder if given the correct supplements would it really be so bad?
All jokes aside, the consensus seems to be it can be done, but would require regular visits to the vet and testing the cat’s urine etc, and even then this would be very experimental.
Realistically, the answer is no.
Good luck with having to take cats to the vet regularly. They loooove it🙄

With the correct supplements you can feed a human literal shit as well.
Yes. It would be literal torture and the poor cat would have no idea why it’s being horribly abused.
Lmao is that what the argument is about? My cat eats organic ethically sourced fish because I’m bougie like that
Can I feed my cat an all-bean diet?
Sure, if you can overlook how cruelly beans are raised, etc…
Won’t anyone do something about the plight of the beans!?
I won’t
if it’s good enough for humans it’s probably good enough for cats
Narrator: as illustrated in Blazing Saddles, it was not good enough for humans
The REAL question is how much beans can I feed to a cat, and why does my house smell really bad?
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 use Arch by the way.
Oh yeah? Well I compiled my own kernel from scratch! for legal reasons this is a joke.
Shaking the veggie tree again? COME AT ME BRUTHOR!
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.
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.
Look at this cute hecking pupperino! {promoted by Purina}

Q: do pets eat food?
A: banned
Can a cat live on impossible burgers made from bean blood?
Obligate dipshits just love circlejerking about vegans, don’t they?
MY CHOICES ARE FINE
