    Maybe for first worlders who can be vegetarians because they like the identity, people who are malnourished need adequate resources, and a diet with meat and dairy is the most efficient way for a large population, at the moment.

      That’s just factually wrong. It simply takes more resources to make the same amount of protein in meat as in vegetarian foods, that doesn’t matter where in the world you live. It takes 50 times more land just to grow the feed for beef or sheep than to grow the same amount of protein in legumes.
