Cows eat grasses and stuff, so how do they become fatty beef?
In: Biology
I typed in the title of the thread in Google and the results were pretty interesting. Herbivores can get fat from eating carbohydrate, just as you can. The atoms that constitute fat are constructed from the chemical elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (C,H,O) which also constitute carbohydrate of which grass is made up
If you consider wheat to be a grass, then humans tend to get fat off of grass, as well. Most dietitians warn against consuming a heavy grain diet. Things like beer and bread get stored as fat. Carbohydrates tend not to make you slim.
