But Ronell is like the perfect answer to people that objectively, they look at it, they go, wait a minute, I do eat meat. Like, I am a hypocrite. I am hiring a supermarket hitman. Like, why am I upset at this man who not only hunts his meat, but cooks it and writes cookbooks and cooks it on television. And like, this is the same thing. Like, what are we doing here? This is so stupid. Yeah.
And then you've got the people that really believe that you shouldn't eat anything but plants. And my problem with that is I think plants are smart. I think they just move real slow, and I think they have a way of interacting that is noticeable and measurable. I think there's probably a consciousness to plants.

I think life eats life, and I think that's the only way it survives, and I think that's just the way it goes. That is just the way it goes. And you can choose to just eat plants, but I don't think you're going to be as healthy. I think it's too hard. I think people can kind of survive on vegan diets and do well on vegan diets. There's athletes that are on vegan diets.

I don't think they hit peak performance and thrive. I think that's all people who are consuming nutrient-dense meats eat. meats and fish and eggs those are the people that when you look at athletes the Predominant that the best athletes in every sport are all consuming protein.

They're all consuming animal protein There's so few that are vegans that that hit elite status and maintain a lot of them get injured when they switch to vegan to There's just so much in there collagen and b12 and fucking there's so many different aspects to different amino acids You could have this ethical thing in your head, and I get that ethical thing. Like, I don't want to see a thing suffer.

I think plants suffer. You just don't feel it. I really do. I think there's a communication with them that's probably similar but different to the way we feel about animals getting killed by other animals. I think it's just a part of this whole process.

I mean, they've shown that you can take the recordings of beetles eating leaves and play recordings of beetles eating leaves near a tree, and the tree will experience distress to the point where it changes the profile, the flavor profile of the leaves. It releases chemicals, these phytochemicals into the leaves that makes it disgusting for the bugs. And they do it with giraffes.

They change their flavor profile to protect themselves. They release some sort of chemical. It makes them inedible.
