    I ONLY eat in restaurants when I can afford to tip handsomely.
    When I order my steak, I don't offer instructions HOW to cook it, only HOW I want it when it's served to me. I offer an extra (addition to normal tip) 5$ tip to the waiter and another 5$ tip to the chef, IF it's the way I like it.
    I explain, I want a fat steak, meaning don't trim off the fat. I want the fat cooked crispy! I want the meat extra rare.
    usually I get what I want, and usually served by the grinning chef himself.
    He's grinning caused he's pleased with himself for cooking it right.
    To get this style of steak, you have to edge toast it on a fork over an open flame.
    Tasty but labor intensive. Can't flop it on the grill to cook unattended except to flip it.
    You have to keep turning the fork and adjusting for correct height as flame flares from dripped grease.
    I'm happy to dispense the $10 gratuity.

    The Smiths Morrissey has said he sees no difference between meat-eaters and ********** during a recent Q&A on Morrissey fan site, True To You.

    “I see no difference between eating animals and paedophilia. They are both ****, violence, murder,” declared the singer when asked “What is it that prompted you to stop eating meat?” The Meat Is Murder-singer continued, saying, “If I’m introduced to anyone who eats beings, I walk away.”

    “Imagine, for example, if you were in a nightclub and someone said to you “Hello, I enjoy bloodshed, throat-slitting and the destruction of life,” well, I doubt if you’d want to exchange phone numbers,” he concluded, continuing his long-standing and vocal criticism of those dastardly flesh-eaters.

    When asked about what new laws he would like to see come into action in order to better the plight of animals, Morrissey referenced The Queen, Jamie Oliver, and UK singer Cilla Black, saying:

    “I would like the Queen of England to be asked why she wears an electrocuted bear-cub on her head. I would like to ask all so-called celebrity chefs why they believe that animals should have no right to live.

    “If Jamie ‘Orrible is so certain that flesh-food is tasty then why doesn’t he stick one of his children in a microwave? It would taste the same as cooked lamb.

    In "Two Years Before The Mast", the author Dana marvels at how fit and healthy they were after a year and more of extremely hard work in extreme weather and shelter conditions and eating only salt beef, hardtack and bad water.

    Pictures like this point out that education and birth control would be the best thing. Their problem isn't that we eat meat, or that there isn't enough on earth to feed them, but they can't grow enough to feed themselves. It also shows how humans will automatically propagate to the point of starvation, bringing the vitality of the whole bunch down. It is a hard, uncomfortable surmise, but giving food aid to such peoples only seems to make their problems worse.

    Now I can confirm a vegan diet affects Morrisey's brain. Bring him a supliment of B12.
    Obviously to be vegetarian is not a choice but a radical attitude for several people.

    Reality is often a bit more complex ---
    SCURVY [I hope Masrapido doesn't notice that I'm again using Wikipedia :eek: ]
    Scurvy was at one time common among sailors, pirates and others aboard ships at sea longer than perishable fruits and vegetables could be stored (subsisting instead only on cured and salted meats and dried grains) and by soldiers similarly deprived of these foods for extended periods. It was described by Hippocrates (c. 460 BC–c. 380 BC), and herbal cures for scurvy have been known in many native cultures since prehistory. Scurvy was one of the limiting factors of marine travel, often killing large numbers of the passengers and crew on long-distance voyages.[1] This became a significant issue in Europe from the beginning of the modern era in the Age of Discovery in the 15th century, continuing to play a significant role through World War I in the 20th century.

    It's not uncommon that people can (or could) feed themselves, but outside forces prevent them from doing so. Here's one example, from the Irish Potato Famine, but there are numerous other examples one could dredge up.

    The proximate cause of famine was a potato disease commonly known as potato blight,[6] which ravaged potato crops throughout Europe during the 1840s. However the impact in Ireland was disproportionate as one third of the population was dependent on the potato for a range of ethnic, religious, political, social and economic reasons, such as land acquisition, absentee landlords and the Corn Laws, which all contributed to the disaster to varying degrees and remain the subject of intense historical debate.

    Although the potato crop failed, the country itself was still producing and exporting large quantities of food. Ireland exported approximately thirty to fifty shiploads per day to Britain, which was more than enough to feed the population.[7] The food exports in conjunction with draconian laws have led some historians and authors to use the term genocide in relation to the tragedy.[8]

    I agree, except off on the scurvy history a little.
    Capt Cook carried sauerkraut on his voyages, but crew wouldn't eat it. So Cook ordered all sauerkraut reserved for officers only. Quickly was popular with crew and no scurvy on Cooks voyages.
    Juice of lemon and limes was known since 1500s to prevent scurvy, but until the great mutiny in late 1700s admirals wouldn't authorize expenditure for limes.
    Reconciliation of mutiny by British Army/Navy with Lord Commanders, outlawed flogging and a daily ration of lime juice. Great Mutiny occurred about dozen years after mutiny on the Bounty.
    Been called limeys ever since.

    Most cases of rampant starvation were caused by genocidal tyrannical regimes, not prolific reproduction.

    List of famines | WIKIPEDIA

    Plenty of famines caused or exacerbated by natural events -- volcanoes, drought, pestilence, cold weather, etc. Might want to rethink the idea that God won't permit man to cook himself to death. :(
