      A kg of almonds takes 3000 liters of water, so that’s 1.9 calories per liter.

      Near as I can tell water cost of meat ranges from 2000 l/kg for chicken to maybe 15,000 l/kg for beef. That’s 0.09-0.6 calories/liter. So, 3-20x more people can eat almonds than meat.

      You think they’re just growing and throwing away the almonds or something? Sheesh, people will use the stupidest most twisted logic to justify their own shitty actions.
