Isn’t that a major oxymoron? If it involves an animal at scale, it can’t be particularly environmentally friendly. Which animal-based protein has the lowest environmental impact, besides insects? Eggs? Whey? Crustaceans? Fish? Can fish or crustaceans process soy?
I will still eat oysters. They're low impact, clean the water, and have no nervous system. I consider them fancy plants. Finding local ones (PNW) is the only challenge, most supermarket ones are from China.
Mmm, rope meat.
... I kinda wish I liked mussels better now.
Meat vegetables 🤤
I mean, as long as you're vegetarian to avoid causing harm, mussels are basically a pass. Oysters should fall into the same area, since they also have decentralized ganglia instead of a central nervous system. And they're good for the water, so planting more of them is a good idea.
Yes
