I had to buy beans at Walmart the other day… I don’t normally get them there. I was looking for white beans. They had this brand in both fhe 15soup pack, and they also had a white bean pack. I saw in the white bean pack, they add “ham flavoring”. I was so grossed out, what is ham flavoring in dried beans? I had to buy the great calue brand. No ham flavoring added.
I got stuck up a tree by a sounder of like 30 of them when I was a kid. My uncle threw a quarter stick at the base of the tree. They dipped, but the tinnitus is still hanging around nearly 30 years later.
Most serious vegans understand something about the differential in agency that comes with even relative poverty. The books that sort of founded the movement take this into account.
And there is a LOT of relative poverty in places you don’t normally expect, especially with housing costs as they are around most of the Capitalist world.
Easy to say when you have choices in where to shop. Lack of transportation and odd work schedules destroy that Real Quick. As does rural life, or life in an urban food desert.
There is more to poverty than lack of money - there is also frequently a lack of time away from work for serious food preparation. And idk if you’ve looked at vegan processed food lately but uh… The opposite holds true about their price.
No one can survive on crock pot beans alone.
Once again, 100 companies are responsible for how much of the emissions? Your consumer choices are not a Revolution that will save the world. Consumer choice is a poor substitute for activism that has been sold to you by your Masters.
You do know there are places without supermarkets right? Or are you that sheltered to believe that the high Andes have a Piggly wiggly on every other precipice?
At the super market! Not everyone has access to world wide goods shipped in on cargo ships burning fucking bunker fuel in a gigantic two stroke(inefficient and dirtier burning than 4 stroke) by the gallons per mile.
Unless you are growing your own, I would argue you are contributing to the climate crisis more than my ham hocks.

It is probably just a packet of seasoning. The 15 bean version comes with a seasoning packet inside. They don’t add it to the beans.
Dude, Bean soup cooked with leftover ham is amazing.
Right and this is fine. But adding “ham flavorings” to a bag of dried beans weirded me out.
How the fuck does one obtain the ham essence, and then apply it to dried beans?
It’s vegan, not actually made from ham
Ah, so even grosser, then?
Same as your cola gets it’s cola flavor, food scientists can synthesize a wide variety of flavors that mimick different things
By adding artificial ham flavoring. This stuff lists itself as being vegan. Not sure about the walmart beans though.
The Walmart ones were just plain beans
True. The ham seasoning packed is definitely lacking
Just use real ham
Pigs are incredibly intelligent animals. You shouldn’t eat them.
Don’t kid yourself ChimpChamp22, if a pig ever got the chance he’d eat you and everyone you cared about.
You could say the same about Hannibal Lector, but I wouldn’t eat him. I do eat pork, though.
I mean, yeah. Not even a joke.

Gross. Lots of people are disgusted by actions that worsen the climate catastrophe

Lol wut. Beans are super cheap. Vegan food is literally cheaper then products from the animal industry that is causing climate catastrophe

Where can you not buy beans?
You do know there are places without supermarkets right? Or are you that sheltered to believe that the high Andes have a Piggly wiggly on every other precipice?
You can buy beans in gas stations, convince stores, and general stores

Beans are the most climate efficient source of protein. They are nitrogen fixers. You can buy them anywhere you can buy food. No supermarket needed.
From small town arctic circle to small towns near Antarctica. From Asia to Africa. Everywhere. You will find beans.
Then dismantle the corporate infrastructure that got us here, stop pointing fingers at your fellow man just trying to survive.
Stop thinking about left and right start thinking about up and down.
Up and Down is over, we need to be thinking in and out.
