The brilliant, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst, the worst. Charles, the question is, how much longer do you think we'll be able to eat meat? My buddy, Mark, has a theory that they will make it illegal to consume meat at some point once we have a reasonable replacement like that Beyond Burger type thing. Not America. Because of that whole freedom thing. Now you're getting it, right? Yeah, they're not going to have a bad meat. But Chris has a feeling that it will just be more efficient? What is the idea? Alright, so, you know, I wrote a book about veganism with Russell Simmons, I spent a lot of time studying it. I don't believe that veganism is the ultimate answer. I don't believe that eating a lot of soy is necessarily that much processed soy specifically. It's not good either. It's not good to have the strokes. They say vegans that have a higher risk of strokes than meat. Right. It's all a myth, this whole vegan thing. So I'm saying that just to preface what I'm about to say. But having done a ton of research, hours and hours of research, I do not think the amount of meat that humans consume is at all sustainable. We can't keep this up the way we're doing it. So that's the argument. If we can't keep doing it and we can create a substitute, at what point if the substitute is more sustainable and equally as delicious and probably cheaper because, listen, to keep a cow alive, it takes a lot of fucking water, you have this pasture nice, all this land. To keep a fake patty alive is nothing. So if it becomes cheaper, just as good, and they can get the health components equal, you say it will never happen. The health component will never happen because it's some GMO bullshit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It has to be natural. That's shit. They got that KFC. Think about how stupid this sound. Plant-based chicken. Yeah. What's wrong with us as a people? Why does that make sense to anybody? Oh, plant-based how chickens are not made out of grass. Yeah. That's impossible. So that's some GMO bullshit. So either way, it's GMO. Beyond burgers and possible burgers. It's all GMO bullshit. Right. You know how much shit they got to put in there for that shit to taste like meat? You know how much shit they got to put in there for that shit to taste like chicken? Yeah. So you better off just eating the regular shit. Right. But what if we get to a point where the population density is so much that we can't supply it with chicken and meat. And maybe chicken and meat and these types of things are reserved for the super really, really rich. That's where it's headed. And it is kind of where it's headed, right? It should be extremely expensive. Right. And you should eat it on rare occasions. Cow should be extremely expensive. Not chickens because chickens ain't going nowhere. They're not going nowhere. Literally. They can't fly. They are built to be eaten. And really everybody should be eating more fish anyway. Right. Your body is made of three-fourths of water and we know that the earth is made of three-fourths of water. But they're not very much fish in the sea and the factory farming fish. It's laying that on the Japanese. That's true. Well, yeah, the Japanese are the worst. The oceans have been wildly depopulated of fish and the factory farming, which is all these salmon in these facilities, that stuff is not good for you. Tilapia is not even a real fish. Right. That broke my heart. That broke my heart. Tilapia is not even a real fish. That's not even a real fish. Is that crazy? Can you break this down? Can you break down the tilapia thing? What? Tilapia is what they made tilapia. It's like a hybrid between... Yeah, I forgot. They wanted to have salmon and a white... But does it swim? It's a fish. Oh, God. I thought that they were just like... But it's a hybrid. It's not an insect. I mean, it's a fish. No, not an insect. I thought that they were just like making the patty and there was no head, no tail. You're not going to go to the Caribbean and somebody pull a tilapia out the ocean. Yeah. They'll pull out some mahi-mahi. There's some grouper. They'll pull out some tuna, some grouper. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? It's not purebred. It's not purebred. It's not purebred. It's not blue-nosed. No, wait. This is why I love going to the islands. When you go to the islands, if they don't have it, they don't have it. They will tell you things aren't in season. Season is the key. We've got to start eating by season. That's it. Yeah, but motherfuckers want avocados. Yeah, but you should be able to walk into a supermarket and just be like, I want strawberries. It's not strawberry season. How crazy is this? Like, what kind of... Like, how fucking fortunate are we that any time of year, if you want guacamole, you get guacamole. Right. Like, any time of year, you want lettuce, you get lettuce. This was seasonal for the vast majority of human existence. And it should go back to that. You didn't get blueberries until fucking October, buddy. If we do that, obesity rates will go down. Absolutely. America will start appreciating these things more. You know what I'm saying? These things will be luxuries. They'll be treats. I got strawberries in whatever time of year. I've been looking forward to getting mangoes in Taiwan all year. All year I've been looking forward when I went on my last trip. When I got there, it was a mango season. Amen. Oh well. Oh well. It reminds you of Mexican on the street. Right. It's not the same. You said... I don't think that the oceans... I mean, it's all an ocean, but when you go to those islands, they treat their oceans a little bit different. I don't see them running out of lobster, bro. I don't see them running out of crayfish, because they eat them during the season. Like, when I was in Turks and Caicos last weekend, it was lobster season. Everywhere you... I mean, you jump in a regular car. Hey, you know it's lobster season. Right. You have to hotel. Hey, it's lobster season. Everything had lobster stuff on the menu. Lobster rolls. Risotto. Everything. Why? Because it was in season. And it was like, get it while you can. It's in season. The biggest illusion when it comes to luxury food is that lobster is expensive. The lobsters are cockroaches of the sea. They reproduce like crazy. They actually should have no real value, but since we look at them as really expensive, they've been able to maintain that shit. Because of red lobster. Because growing up, at least for me, growing up in the country, lobster was five-star dining. That was fine. It was in. You take a girl to red lobsters, so on and popping. Yo, that's what drug dealers did. Pulling up the red lobster. I didn't know no better. You know what I'm saying? Cheddar cheese biscuits. That was delicacy to me. You know what I'm saying? So red lobster just made it like some fan... this shit fancy. You can lobster out that tank. I thought they just brought them from the back. Oh, nah, they be in the tank. I mean, I don't know. I've never eaten one out of the tank. I always say it, but I don't know if they actually bring me to one out of the tank. They should just be like... It's S&M. Yeah, they just be tied up in the tank. I'm like, why do you got them tied up in the tank? We went to the Taipei fish market when we were over there. Wild? Wild. On your recommendation to get sushi. Incredible or no? Incredible. But, you know, tanks bigger than this room filled with crabs. My daughter's a vegetarian now. She started crying in the middle of it. She couldn't handle it? It was insane. Oh, don't take her to the zoo. Shit. But they're not eating the lie. The zoo is just... The zoo is worse. They guess it is, man. To me, the zoo is depressing. The zoo is depressing as fuck. The zoo is animal slavery. If I gave a fuck, I'd be protesting that shit. The fish market is genocide. The fish market is straight up genocide. The slavery versus genocide. I don't know which is worse. Why? Because you're eating them? Because you pluck the crab right out of the tank and then you get the sushi and it's fucking delicious. It's unbelievable. Unbelievable. Really? You can tune it? You can tune it or what? I stuck with... I called somebody and they were like, stick with the eel and the crab. That's their thing? That's their thing. That's the absolute freshest out here. Unbelievable. The food couldn't have been that good if your daughter went vegan. She didn't even have it. Wow. She used to eat. She was too triggered by that shit. Yeah, she couldn't handle it. So how'd she eat? What'd you do? Rice. Rice and vegetables the rest of the trip. Okay. That's one thing Asians do better than most people. Well, eat rice? Not give a fuck about animals. Yes. What do you mean? Like, they cannot give a fuck about animals. They're worth of the country, huh? Let me tell you something. They haven't been to South Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, Georgia. You only need any jellyfish out there. Shit. Because we're eating possums in raccoons. But that's easy. That's a tasty delicacy. That's nothing. That's bare shoulder. That bare shoulder is nothing. Jellyfish, lizard. There's nothing that Chinese people won't eat. Nothing. Nothing. That's why they'll beat us all. That's why they'll outlive us all. There's nothing they won't eat. What's the life expectancy of a Chinese person? 2000 years. 2000 years. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. Son, there's nothing they won't eat. They will eat anything. You know how we have, like, picky eaters? That doesn't exist in China. I had chicken's feet on this last trip. Please. Been doing that just as a kid, man. Great. Chicken feet? Yes! I'm from South Carolina. Chicken feet was delicious. They were talking about maybe eating chicken feet, man. But jellyfish, you're not eating. No, I ain't ever had no jellyfish. A lizard just spread like that, like on the cross. You never had that. They will eat that shit. Gator might have been the closest thing I had to eating the lizard. Dude, like a... Just... Snake. Eat some snake. Dude, alligator crocodile? Oh, gator's great. That's like chicken, right? No, gator's good. It literally tastes similar to chicken, right? Yes. Alligator's good. Apparently they breed like crazy because they're lizards, like those crocodile farms or whatever like that. That's what we should be eating. It's kind of rough with the gators, though, man. Why? Because they've been alive so long. So you just feel like a piece of shit eating something that's been alive that long just because you're hungry? I don't know. How many years? 600? And you're going to just kill them? I don't feel bad at all. Animals... I don't have that thing with animals. I don't have that connection. Maybe some dogs. They're kind of cute and that kind of stuff. No, dogs are fucked up. I remember the time I seen one of my home boys shoot a dog in the head because they used to fight pit bulls. Oh, boy. And this pit bull was like off... You know, he didn't... Couldn't win no more fights no more. Yeah. And so he just shot him in the head. No, that's fucked up. I remember my home boy saying, man, that boy, he going to have hard luck shooting that dog in the head like that. And yeah. He did. He had a pretty rough life. I don't like that fighting them. I don't like fighting them that kind of stuff. A pig is smarter than a dog, though. Yeah, yeah. But... You eat ribs every day. I don't eat pork. You don't eat pork anymore. Oh, no. I eat pig. If you care about dogs, you can't really eat pig because a pig is definitely smarter or more emotional. Yeah, but a pig isn't as attractive. Like a pig doesn't look cute. Nah, little baby pigs are really cute. By the way, I've never eaten dog on purpose. That's what I'm saying. I need dog. If somebody gave it to you and you ate that shit, man, if somebody ate that shit, you're like, that shit is good as fuck. Dude, I've eaten horse. I've had horse. I've had horse. I've had horse. Easily. I could eat any animal. I really could eat most animals as long as they were delicious. I'm just saying I don't have the same affinity for these fucking animals. I think it's a big crock of shit. We don't need all these animals. I think that you have cows, chickens, pig, some fish. What a new thing, and I'm not smart enough to speak to this, but most of these animals serve a bigger purpose in this ecosystem other than just eating them. I don't buy that at all. Don't believe it. Because only if cows fart, it closes the ozone layer. No, no, no. It opens it. It's bad for the ozone layer. Kill all the cows. I don't want them doing that. Kill all the cows. Cow farts cause more erosion of the ozone layer than all the cars and shit combined. You know why y'all feel that way? This is why y'all feel that way about cows now. Why? Because motherfuckers is turning vegan and because people are drinking almond milk because they know that cow milk is bad. You outta here, bro. Fuck the cows. Bye. See you later. We outta here. Give them to India. They love them. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Yeah, it's gonna get mighty fucking hot when that ozone layer gone. Talk to God about that. How to put a hole in the ozone layer? The cows farted into it. But remember, they stopped talking about it. Chick-fil-A been trying to save us. From the jump. They really might be on to it. Maybe Chick-fil-A really does have this close connection with God because they gotta see the Popeye sandwich. They really got us in chicken. Burgers aren't slapping like they used to. Name a burger that's been popping. You get some real beef. You get some real meat like out of the country somewhere and burgers still be slapping. Yeah, but it's not a national craze like chicken is. Chicken is having a wave right now, bro. You know what I realize about burgers and chicken and all that shit? I don't like the fixies. Meaning like, I don't like sandwiches and shit. I don't like hamburger buns and all that. I want to get right to it. Like, I don't like that. I think sandwiches are on the way up. I don't like them shit. Oh, I don't eat bread. Yeah, see, everyone's gonna be doing that. They should. The bread is poison. I don't like the buns, none of that shit. You eat a cardboard. I'm gonna have a sandwich in ten years. Don't eat the sandwich. Don't eat none of that shit. You just eat the fucking meat and have some veggies. That's it. That's it. That's how human beings eat things. Now, what about when the bread is baked properly? It tastes good. That shit is good. But it's gotta be a delicacy. Most things that taste good are horrible for you. Right. Most things that taste good are horrible for you. Name one thing that tastes good that's not bad for you. Fish, steak, chicken, homemade bread. You know what they gotta put on the fish? You ever eat a fish with nothing on it? Yes. Actually, I did that in Japan. When you go to the Caribbean and they get that shit right out the ocean, they'll be like, yo, the water got salt in it. Put it on it if you want. Yeah. And lemon juice. Then they fry that motherfucker up and then it's good. But they fry it. Nah, they boil it. They boil it, they just boil it after you eat that shit. That shit is amazing. Nah, dude, lobster by itself is regular, bro. That's rags, dude. Lobster by itself. Nah. I need some butter on it. Not in the Caribbean, bro. I promise you. I just had it. In the Caribbean, when that shit comes right out there, when they take it right out that trap, oh, shit, it's just seasoned so well by that water, man. The water is not seasoning anything, dude. Salt, isn't it? It's salt water. No, dude. The lobster tastes like the ocean. Yeah. When was the last time you took a bite of ocean and enjoyed it? That was the best. Oh, yeah? You ever drink salt water by the glass? Yes. That's called drowning.
