All -

Has anyone watched the Netflix Documentary "What The Health"?

Warmest Regards.

Is that the one about the health effects of eating meat?

Yes, but it is mostly about eating meats contaminated by processing and by feeding practices that include antibiotics that over time make people who eat that meat less healthy.
You know the old saying, "you would never eat a Hot Dog if you saw how they were made".
Then they add "preservatives" to keep them from spoiling for a few years.
If they will not decay then how can they be converted to needed energy and good health? They can't!

The implication in this thread, is that bad people eat meat and good people eat vegetables.

But I know some vegetarians who actually eat baby carrots.  That's right, baby carrots!  Sometimes these sickos will eat the babies in front of the mother carrot.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'll stick with eating my rare rib-eye steak rather than scoffing down a defenseless baby carrot.

Friend John,
I actually love your sense of humor.
Thanks for bringing some enjoyable levity into the discussion.
I'm going right out to the fridge and grab a handful of baby carrots.

Oh got it.. so it's not just the health effects of 'meat' but the health effects of factory farmed or processed meat that is the subject of the documentary.

I did watch 'cowspiracy' which I believe was put out by the same guys that did 'what the health'. But that one focused on the connection between beef production and Co2 output and climate change.
