  • Yes. Still you can be philanthropic. Especially if you understand this term in its original meaning, i.e., love for humanity (as an antonym to misanthropy).

  • You can be philantropic without having any money.

  • *here again. Let's see how long it takes them this time to remove it again.

  • Ditch Google trash. Go for alternatives. E.g., Firefox instead of Chrome.

  • So if we would create milk in a lab, which is chemically identical to e.g. cow's milk, but without any udder secretion involved, that wouldn't be milk?

    What is milk if not just fatty water with a couple of nutrients?

    Our concept of "milk" goes beyond mere mammary gland secretes.

  • Why do you have a picture of my wife? /j

  • Or motorcycles in the street in front of your house/apartment. It's so fucking annoying.

  • Or someone who prefers products with a lower carbon footprint.

  • Ah crêpes, the cheap version of Blinis. /j

  • in case someone ask for an off-menu variation?

    Stuff like a plant-based alternative shouldn't even be "off-menu". The problem already starts here.

  • Making adjustments to dishes for the customers the restaurant serves is not unique to american culture.

    Furthermore I find it important to enable this. For example due to health reasons as in lactose intolerance, which is common in humans as about two thirds of humanity is lactose intolerant.

  • Of course proper milk is superior to oat milk.

    In terms of ecological footprint it really isn't. There, cow milk or any other animal milk is waaay worse than oat milk.

    Furthermore, doesn't oat milk usually have a higher shelf life than typical animal milk like those from cows?

    Lets not conflate convenience with nutritional quality.

    As far as I know the one thing that cow milk has in terms of better nutritional quality compared to oat milk for example are high quality proteins, covering all essential amino acids. However, if you are not dependend on that intake of protein by drinking a glass of milk each day, due to other protein sources in your diet, then there is not really much more value to cow milk. Since soy milk has a higher amount of protein than oat milk, one could also prefer that over cow milk, which would still lower carbon emissions. Not as much as with oat milk though.

  • Proof: just trust me bro.

  • Yes. About 2/3rd of the worldwide population is lactose-intolerant. Hence, it is really common to ask for lactose-free products.

  • There is a difference between a restaurant of a specific cusine and plainly deniying acommodating for common dietary preferences. Be it for health or ethical reasons. I guess in most cuisines worldwide there are either plenty of suitable dishes already available or they should be at least easy to accomodate. But sometimes it seems it's even too much of an ask to leave out some simple ingredients.

  • So about 2/3 of humanity is weak. My goodness, this arrogance!

  • You can indeed create milk without requiring a cow.

  • So France is intolerant towards lactose intolerant people and towards those with specific ethical dietary preferences. And that rightfully so! Be an asshole towards others! It's "in" these days and Paris has been known for being trendy. /s
