If we have pet food food that sustains pets, why do humans have so much trouble getting the right nutrients?
In: 39
Pet food is… easier. And yet, still, sometimes the food for pets has proven toxic due to problems at the plant. Or the pet happens to be allergic to a main ingredient. I’ve known a number of cat owners whose cats can’t eat anything with chicken. Koalas eat only from a few kinds of eucalyptus trees, but then, they are not pets.
Human beings are far more difficult because we know about nutrition. And sure, there are those like myself who couldn’t go vegan (and probably not vegetarian) for the simple fact that then I’d have to figure out how to get all the right nutrients. We like what we like. We like certain flavors. We dislike others. For the life of me, I can only imagine utter starvation behind the discovery that natto was not only edible, but darned good for you.
