There was a post a while back that calculated the amount of oil/water required to produce 1kg of protein, comparing meat vs. plant based proteins.
Does anybody have that calculation post?

Non-Feedlot beef tastes crappy. I lived in the Philippines for 3 years and the cows graze on just about any plant available.
I raised grassfed beef myself. The cows ate just grass- not any plant available. It was delectable.It's important to rotationally graze, so the soil and grass continue to regenerate well.
You just don’t remember what real beef tastes like. I haven’t had a decent cut of store bought beef in about a decade.
In the Philippines the farmers typically have a cow or two and they move them in the morning and evenings. They are subsistence farmers who grow the cattle as a cash crop that requires them to not buy any feed. They don't have grassy fields, they have jungle.
