Urs, you are a refined gentleman with good taste.

You may consider switching to Italian reds - Meloni is easy on the eyes 👀 ❤️and is supportive of our current administration !

France = tariffs = bye-bye

Might as well just put an E on the logo for Mongolian grills and traditional Asian restaurants. We own a round bottom hand peened carbon steel wok. To make them work correctly you need a big hot flame, no induction here.

I didn't even mention my gas grill and my Blackstone, both of which are connected to a natural gas tap on the back of my house. Thinking about some Blackstone terriaki beef and shrimp fried rice. Now I'm hungry.

it strikes me that the best way to 'encourage' people to eat what these crusaders want is to make the food taste good an offer the nutritional benefits consumers desire. otherwise, absent a totalitarian regime, which appears to be coming about in the UK and Australia, people just ain't gonna do it

Yes! Let’s start by rounding up the Ecofacsists.

Why should busy-bodies try to control what other people eat? They can kiss my ass and let people eat what they want.

Andy, I wouldn’t eat crickets if you wrapped them in bacon and marinated them in bourbon.

Makes me want to eat more ribeyes! Seems like a gimmick to sell more steak. Just like threats of gun control seem to send people rushing to their local gun shop in the US.

Well, we’ve got some countries, like Canada and Australia, printing cancer warnings on each and every cigarette, and yet people continue to smoke. What’s next, printing CO2 quantities on each item on your plate? Do they include the methane you’ll be farting out after the meal, bearing in mind that some foods make you more flatulent than others?

Telling me that my quarter pound burger generated 10+ pounds of CO2 isn’t going to make me switch to carrot burgers, especially when they lie about the extensive (ultimately futile) processing that goes into trying to make veggie burgers taste as good as beef.

Carrot burgers will never taste like beef, no matter who much they tell you it does 😂

Careful, they will fit you with a methane capture device like they are experimenting with on cattle

With all the hot air coming out of parliaments and congresses around the western world, maybe it can be captured to heat the premises!

First time I see carbon BS on the menu is the last time that restaurant sees my custom. Especially if their credit card machine only gives options of 20, 25 or 30% for tips.

Good Lord, will these fools never stop? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Just think, in about 50 years, social scientists will wonder if the world literally went mad somewhere around 2010.

I’ll start my dinner with a cheese and meat platter, maybe lamb chops as a first course, and steak to follow. To make sure I can get an F, add cheese to my creamed spinach. And I’m sure my red wine from France, which had to be flown to my house has a crazy high CO2 number.

Ps - thanks for posting. So damn good.

The GRI, WWF, and WRI sound like NGOs that need to be immediately defunded. I will let Elon know.

I will not be eating at Panera. If I do, by accident, I will be sure to release more methane gas by belching and farting, than I would have saved by eating their lousy carbon neutral food.

Those coming up with this are not serious people, but rather American Marxists trying to burn down the system, diverting your attention from the taxpayer dollars they are stealing from you to push this garbage. I am releasing a large methane loaded toxic fart as I am writing this. CO2 levels are rising as I write. Get over it climate scam whackos !

Brutal and necessary 💪!

The executives behind the Climato scam are probably making 6 figures or more.

Luckily we also have such sources as “Seed Oil Scout,” an app that tells you which restaurants use or don’t use PUFAs. (I’m not a huge fan of the app, because it’s got tons of ads, but I appreciate their mission, and they actually have a pretty good and not-too-frequent newsletter.) While green freaks try to tell you how much CO2 you can eat (!), others are highlighting establishments that use tallow instead of rape oil—I mean “canola” oil.

Of course, how your beef is raised has a massive impact on its CO2 footprint.

Will they soon be checking our emissions? Since old people seem to have more gas, maybe they should be taken off the menu completely!

This is hilarious if it wasn't so seriously trying to subvert our behavior. In which case I want a steak with garlic butter - 2 scoops...please.

When they roll out the digital coins in October they are all in trouble.

I remember my father telling me about war time rationing, and his uncles with their victory gardens, mother lived on a farm - they didn't have such a thing, except sugar. Back to those days! Help I need the good protein to keep my old brain working!

And Ikea, well what can I say - I just visited one of their stores recently - won't be back - what a lot of crappy furniture. Trouble with that is it is not sustainable - certainly won't last long enough to put it together, then it is ready for the scrap heap! I have furniture that is over 100 years old and still standing strong!

Enjoyed your post and your collaboration with Tammy Nemeth, she is a gem!

“the urge to save humanity is almost always a false face for the urge to rule humanity”

Fuck global cooling, er, global warming, uh I mean climate change.

And fuck your pronouns, too.

Thanks for the support JF, go for the ribeye with butter!

More CO2 = more plant food = more grass for the cows, right?
