Question:

What are the only 2 foods that nothing has to die for you to eat??

vegetarians kill more living things than meat eaters. 500 people can eat off 1 cow, but a powerhouse sandwich has over 300 dead things on it. so what are the ONLY 2 things you can eat without anything dying?? think biblical.

some good answers, milk is one, and of course dairy produckts are made from milk, yogurt has cultures added as do cheese, fruits and vegetables die, as does rice so they are wrong. think biblical, the other one also will NEVER go bad, it does not spoil and was found in a 3000 year old tomb and reconstituted and used!

water is not food, on a powerhouse, there are over 300 individual sprouts, all living plants, not to mention the avocado, tomato and other stuff. someone got the other one!!! honey, thats why in the bible it is called the land of milk and honey!! honey will dry but never go bad, it kills all bacteria and is a great antiseptic if you want to smear honey on an open cut, watch out for flies laying eggs in it though!!

no, dairy products are made from milk, but enzymes and cultures are added to make cheese and other dairy products and they die.

well i don't know but eggs aren't u kill a baby chick that never had the chance to grow. And bacteria is killed in milk and water. hope it helps for people answering.

Nothing dies when dairy products are used; these can be made into far more than two foods. Nothing dies for water, of course. Nothing dies when honey is made, either. There's lots more than two. Nowadays, there are any number of chemically-produced foods for which nothing had to die, though they're not very appetizing.

When your dairy cow stops giving milk, it goes to the slaughterhouse. So cross dairy off your list and try again.

No,we don't kill more things than you.What do you think the cow ate before it died?Plants!

According to a recent report by Compassion in World Framing, "[c]rops that could be used to feed the hungry are instead being used to fatten animals raised for food." It takes up to 16 pounds of grain to produce just 1 pound of edible animal flesh.

The Guardian explains that there's only one solution to world hunger: "It now seems plain that [a vegan diet] is the only ethical response to what is arguably the world's most urgent social justice issue."

If everyone on Earth received 25 percent of his or her calories from animal products, only 3.2 billion people could be nourished. Dropping that figure to 15 percent would mean that 4.2 billion people could be fed.

If everyone went vegan, there would be more than enough food to nourish the world's entire population―more than 6.3 billion people. The WorldWatch Institute sums this up perfectly, saying, "[M]eat consumption is an inefficient use of grain―the grain is used more efficiently when consumed by humans. Continued growth in meat output is dependent on feeding grain to animals, creating competition for grain between affluent meat-eaters and the world's poor."

According to the USDA and the United Nations, using an acre of land to raise cattle for slaughter yields 20 pounds of usable protein. That same acre would yield 356 pounds of protein if soybeans were grown instead―more than 17 times as much!

It takes about 300 gallons of water per day to produce food for a vegan, and more than 4,000 gallons of water per day to produce food for a meat-eater.(You save more water by not eating a pound of beef than you do by not showering for an entire year.)

It should be no surprise, then, that food for a vegan can be produced on only 1/6 of an acre of land, while it takes 3 1/4 acres of land to produce food for a meat-eater.

If we added up all the arable land on the planet and divided it equally, every human would get 2/3 of an acre―more than enough to sustain a vegetarian diet, but not nearly enough to sustain a meat-eater.

Dr. Waldo Bello, executive director of the Institute for Food and Development Policy, concurs that raising animals for meat is a waste of resources, stating, "The American fast-food diet and the meat-eating habits of the wealthy around the world support a world food system that diverts food resources from the hungry."

Of all the agricultural land in the U.S., nearly 80 percent is used, in some way, to raise animals―that's roughly half of the total land mass of the U.S.

Eighty percent of starving children live in countries that actually have food surpluses; the children remain hungry because farmers use the surplus grain to feed animals instead of people.Two-thirds of the grain that the U.S. exports to other countries is used to feed farmed animals instead of people.

For example, the famine in Ethiopia did not occur because Ethiopian farmers could not produce food. On the contrary, during this crisis, which killed tens of thousands of people, European nations were actually importing grain from the impoverished country to feed European chickens, pigs, and cows.

According to Dr. Waldo Bello, executive director of the Institute for Food and Development Policy, "[t]here is enough food in the world for everyone. But tragically, much of the world's food and land resources are tied up in producing beef and other livestock―food for the well-off―while millions of children and adults suffer from malnutrition and starvation. In Central America, staple crop production has been replaced by cattle ranching, which now occupies two-thirds of the arable land."

In Guatemala, for instance, 75 percent of children under the age of 5 are malnourished, and yet the nation continues to produce and export 40 million pounds of meat to the U.S. every year.

Fruit and nuts. BTW-the difference between a plant dyeing and an animal is that whereas the animal feels fear and anxiety when slaughtered, the plants feel joy and willingly give themselves to help nourish us(have you read The Secret Life of Plants written by a scientist?) when harvested.

PS: The problem with milk consumption is that the cows are no longer kept by individual families and thus the milk is pasturized(killing necessary digestive enzymes and the cows are eventually sold for slaughter so consuming milk from commercially raised animals contributes to the beef industry.

kinda bizarre that vegans don't eat honey, eh?

Rice, pasta, vegetables, bread, to start with

OLIVES? OLIVE OIL...OLIVE TREES
BREAD?

First of all, I was raised on a farm and there's no way in h*ll 500 people can eat off 1 cow.

Also, you may think that dairy products don't involve killing, but you can only consider this if you are milking a cow on your own property. Cows owned by large companies do indeed die after producing so much milk.

And vegetarians don't kill more living things than meat eaters. Think about all the frogs that died so you can munch on a big bowl of frog legs, Think about all the chicken who died so you can eat a big bucket of wings. Our food gets reproduced and replanted, your food gets beaten and abused and dies and never comes back.

And to answer your question, fruits that grow on trees don't kill the tree.
