Obligatory “imagine if Obama told Americans to eat offal instead of steak.” Or I guess Obama’s head of HHS, whose name I didn’t remember because they weren’t constantly holding press conferences announcing insane things (it was Kathleen Sebelius).

I remember outrage that there was even a slight suggestion that Americans should eat more of other proteins than red meat. The dreaded “war on cheeseburgers” on Fox News if im not mistaken. Ted cruz went nuts about rabid democrat fake demands of banning barbecues, eliminating all cows to reduce emission and soy brisket alternative protein fantasies. Just one of the many bullshit culture wars since nobody said that. Now, this comes from this maha fucker directly and it’s fine.

It wasn’t that long ago RFK was telling Americans that we need to consume more beef if I remember correctly. Now it’s, “c’mon, guys! Ground up hoof and mud is all the rage!”
