Soy Bacon, you taste like morning breath.

So the funny thing is that I was trying to be a better person in that I wanted to stop dealing with or supporting bullshit. I was thinking about all the shit that goes into actually putting meat on a table in front of me. Its kind of crazy and nuts. I have no qualms with eating meat. Quite the opposite really. It's just, weird.

I really like this concept of a "Localvor." I like the idea of living off the things that are directly around you. Especially in situations where the food is already there. Who knows, its silly. I was trying out some Veggie Burgers (Which unfortunately ended up being Soy Burgers) as well as some Veggie Bacon (which again, ended up Soy Bacon). The burgers were not terrible, but the bacon was like a warmed up dog treat. I was sitting there with Carrie thinking about what it was that I was actually trying to do by eating Vegetarian.

Anyhow, we came to the conclusion that because we do not want to have children that we can pretty much say fuck the environment and everything, but not for the reasons you think. Some people would say: "Well if I am not going to have any children, then why should I worry about what the world will be like 100 years from now." Instead, I think of the, ugh I hate to say it, 'carbon footprint' of a single individual. Then I try and think of the effect that that one single person would have when you consider them having, say three children. Over the course of those three children's lives, they will have a pretty similar footprint to their single predescessor. So that single footprint has now become four. Take into concern that, we will say, two of those three have at least one kid. That single footprint has become seven. That is a huge effect on any environment.

By not having kids, my carbon footprint is so negative that I can brush my teeth with oil and do away with Soy products for good.

How much is good enough? How much is just good?
