EDIT: here’s a source for that figure
Previous studies have estimated that 73% of all antimicrobials sold globally are used in animals raised for food

If you aren’t regularly eating fruit and vegetables your meals aren’t healthy. You are explicitly leaving out essential elements of a healthy diet to go “beans and rice are cheap.”
Clearly none of you have been broke and hungry before.
Dude, vegans can and do eat fruits. For people who can’t afford seasonal fresh fruit, we have fortified foods like bread, pasta, rice, and cereals, most of which are also vegan. I specified rice and beans (and everything else you conveniently ignored, lol) because they make a complete protein, which is usually the only thing you need to monitor closely if you are vegan on a budget. Anything else and you are best off getting a multivitamin for best bang for your buck.
Also, you saying none of us have been hungry and then lecturing us about not getting both fruits AND vegetables when fresh fruit is one of the most expensive things in a grocery store, outside of meat that is? You clearly have never been poor enough that you have been needing to have your ‘fruit’ be the cheapest jar of grape jelly you can find, or the cans of frozen ‘orange drink concentrate’.
… I know they eat fruits. They are the one who left it out to avoid acknowledging the high cost
Lol now I know you’re trolling. Have a good life.
Beans and rice aren’t replacing the fruits and vegetables part. People eating meat-based diets are also eating fruits and vegetables, or if not, they aren’t going be healthy either
If you are not eating a bunch of bread and meat and eggs then you are getting your fill in more expensive products. Meat and bread and eggs have high caloric/protein/carb content and have been subsidized to absurdly low prices. It is why low income families depend on them. It’s how they get a full stomach.
Go to a Walmart with someone who eats meat and dairy and match their meal efficiency per dollar. Good luck.
This is more or less just repeating the original claim without addressing any of the other points brought up. I am also confused why we’re talking about bread now when that’s perfectly plant-based?
