It's as bad as when people throw out an apple or any other fruit cause it's bruised!! I mean come on are you faggots for real, there are SO many people who would kill for that one piece of fruit and you throw it away, fuckin' wastes all of them. |

Eclecticist
02.28.12 | If there is a bruise on my fruit I usually take a paring knife and just cut that chunk off.
Also, I don't take the bowl, tip it and drink the milk from the bowl like it's a cup. I use my spoon and scoop the leftover milk. My one exception is that if the cereal is really sugary I don't drink the milk because the amount of leftover sugar in it is fucking gross, it's like drinking a South Korean pre-packaged milkshake. My remedy for this situation is that I use less milk so that I waste less milk. |

someguest
02.28.12 | "I always use the "there are people around the world that would kill for that" excuse. It usually works. Plus it's true.
I really hate wasting food."
The sad part is (if any of you have worked at a grocery store at one time or another you know should know) grocery stores throw out a ton of food which there's nothing wrong with. Let's say the corner of the box is dented. Thrown away. Or that item is discontinued by the company. Thrown away. If you think the little bit you throw away from the small amount of food you buy really matters in the end, I feel sorry for you. |
sniper
02.28.12 | if you think justifying your own wastefulness by saying others are committing worse actually makes your wastefulness less awful, i feel sorry for you. |
someguest
02.28.12 | you see, the funny thing about purchasing food is the ownership transfers from the company to you - meaning waste doesn't exist because you're doing what you want with what you bought. you're welcome to continue though. |
sniper
02.28.12 | i didn't say you had no right to throw away your food if you don't want it. this is the second logical fallacy you've committed in two consecutive comments.
"you're welcome to continue though." |
bloc
02.28.12 | How the fuck can some of you not like milk?! |
someguest
02.28.12 | the key word you used is justifying, which is condescending and unnecessary. nothing needs to be justified because the right is entirely the owner's. |
Sirob
02.28.12 | I like the leftover milk unless its from shitty ass fruit cereal |
sniper
02.28.12 | soymilk tastes better (to me, i don't like the aftertaste of cow milk at all, makes me feel gross) and raising cows is terrible for the environment, i've almost completely given up beef products in general. i haven't gone all the way yet because i don't bother to avoid it in pre-prepared packaged foods but i don't order beef in restaurants or buy milk and cheese directly anymore. i've learned too much about food production and waste to want to continue being part of the demand for cow products. |
BallsToTheWall
02.28.12 | soy is fucking gross. Drink almond milk if anything. |
sniper
02.28.12 | but dude someguest that's what you're doing. i'm not even saying you shouldn't throw away whatever you want (even though it's what i believe), i was just saying that two wrongs don't make a right. this is obviously an exaggerated example, but just because one person has killed hundreds of people doesn't make it any less wrong for someone to kill only one person. i'm not even trying to tell you to what to do, just telling you that what you're doing or not doing has nothing to do with what grocery stores are doing. |
wabbit
02.28.12 | ...but beef is so delicious |
sniper
02.28.12 | almond milk is pretty good yeah. the point is mainly that i don't drink milk. someday i'll probably stop using cow products altogether but for now i just use as little as i can without having to give up too many things i really love. i guess it's somewhat hypocritical of me but i'm not pretending to be a saint or advocating vegetarianism or anything so i feel pretty okay with being less a part of the problem in my worldview and still being able to enjoy pizza without feeling like a shitty person. idk. |
wabbit
02.28.12 | and cheese and milk. That's like 3/4 of my diet.
FUCK IT! the environment can take the hit. |
Yotimi
02.28.12 | i just keep refilling the bowl with cereal until the milk is gone |
sniper
02.28.12 | dude. do some research on how much water goes into producing a gallon of milk. it's disgusting. i still use some but like i said, trying to reduce the amount of waste i am directly responsible for, if for no other reason than i feel good about doing that. |
sniper
02.28.12 | fuck the cows.
don't actually fuck the cows. |
wabbit
02.28.12 | ya but if the milk/ cheese/ beef industry closed in my area we would essentially have no stable field for employment and then all these people would all go on welfare and then they would make a sputnik account called "someguest" |
sniper
02.28.12 | they could farm produce, actually. or make beer, you can do that almost anywhere. |
ITsHxCTOASTER
02.28.12 | Yeah the milk is delicious after you're done eating the cereal. Especially after Frosted Flakes, holy mother of God |
wabbit
02.28.12 | too high latitude/ too poor soil to grow any produce in a way that will be profitable.

02.28.12 | then you can grow hops! beer it is. everyone loves a good hoppy beer. |
Vesper
02.28.12 | "do some research on how much water goes into producing a gallon of milk. it's disgusting."
Yeah, 2,000 gallons, apparently. How much water goes into producing one gallon of soy milk, though?
A pound of coffee beans requires about 2,500 gallons of water, and I don't see people making a fuss about that.
I don't really care so much about refraining from consuming cow products as I do about not getting them from a industrial source, if I can afford it. It's not so much about what you're consuming as it is about trying to do it in a sustainable manner (but, again, a lot of people can't afford this lifestyle).
Also, household waste pales in comparison to industrial/commercial waste.
Not to say you shouldn't do your part, and encouraging sustainable practices will hopefully instill similar attitudes towards industries, since that's really where the bulk of our waste comes from. |
sniper
02.28.12 | the water thing was only one example, there are a number of reasons i try to avoid cow products. but i'm not saying i disagree with your points, nor am i pretending to be a saint, like i
said. :) i'm obviously still learning new things (as i always will be), and my beliefs and worldview are obviously still evolving (as i hope they always will), and i feel good about any change i
can make. i also try not to support obviously horrible corporations, but you know i have better things to do than spend all my time finding out which products have parts manufactured
by bad companies, etc. i try not to willingly and knowingly contribute to the top line of companies like that though. |
Vesper
02.28.12 | Yeah, I figured as much, sniper - same goes for me. :]
I can't be fucked to research every last product, but it's easy enough to spot a lot of inconsistencies in the sustainable/veggie market that I think people who care about this thing should think about to some extent.
I just find the "x uses this amount of water, therefore it's bad" approach to be misleading, and I would qualify opposition to cow products as being against the industrial farms that cause widespread damage and waste, not lumping them with smaller, local farms (which produce better-tasting milk and meat, anyway). |
