Unusually aggressive lone star ticks, common in the south-east, are spreading to areas previously too cold for them

It wouldnt be pushing people to veganism, considering there are plenty of animal products you could consume even if youre allergic to meat.
Also there are a lot more types of meat than beef. I eat meat often and hardly ever eat any beef

Sounds like you could still eat fish, human and chicken (and other bird) meat as usual.
Bring on the lizard meat
You jest, but I can assure you that alligator is delicious.
Only half-jest; I’ve never tried reptile, but I wouldn’t mind
That why nature gave us birdflu. So take chicken off the menu as well. That just leaves apes and ourselves.
It’s like nature is telling us to switch to a seafood and the rich only diet.
Oh sweer summer child. There won’t be any of that either. Not with over fishing.
Not, entirely correct. Alpha-gal syndrome is not a meat allergy. Gelatin, Glycerin and Magnesium stearate all contain high levels of it and are found in products as diverse as makeup, candy, shampoo, vape juice, energy drinks and toothpaste. High levels of alpha-gal are found in Milk and Milk products. All mammalian meat, organ meat, lipids and derived products. You check labels for the rest of your life if you have this and you’ll probably still come into contact with it out in the wild. You get Fish, Eggs and poultry. That’s only guaranteed if you buy the meat on its own, free from seasoning and cross-contamination. You don’t eat in a restaurant anymore, unless it’s sushi.
My wife has had to follow a low FODMAP and gluten free diet for the last 6ish years. It’s miserable and I wouldn’t wish such a vast allergy as this on anyone. I know there are plenty of haughty taughty vegans in this thread making jest, but these kinds of allergies fucking suck and I guarantee vegans consume shit that has these compounds without even realizing, since like you said, it exists in far more than just basic meat-based foods.
It works against dairy, too
