Bucky: Look, I don't have to eat what Da Vinci or Plato ate, they probably didn't even have meat back then... Einstein was much more geniuses than those guys, anyway, let's have a look at what his favorite... Ok, forget all these freaks, vegetables clearly give you weird hair. Let's find a normal genius. A-ha! Mark Twain! Now there's a man's genius! Let's see what he... Aw, fer cryin' out loud! Who printed this book on geniuses, Peta?!

Oh well, being a genius sounds like too much work anyway. I think I’ll wolf down a quarter pounder and go take a nap.

Conrad Stoffelmeier was a meat eater. Maybe that is why you never heard of him…………

I’ve had a little think about my comment earlier re Hitler and vegetarians and realized that it was completely unacceptable to make such an unjustified and unpleasant generalisation and I apologise without reservation. I will now remove that comment. I’ll leave the one that replies to jukeofurl.

There goes my favorite bashing-use story…that Hitler ravaged vegetables. I must check this out. Hitler NOT a cocaine-sniffing, prancing, cruel, arrogant, celebrity-seeking murdering vegetarian? the mind boggle-eth. Doggone it.

The only aggravation against good sense that Hitler didn’t perform was…he didn’t prance wearing biking spandex.

Snopes says that Hitler was a vegetarian because he had gastric problems.

I love Bucky’s eyes in panel two. Very expressive.

Bucky has a legitimate question, here. Mark Twain was happily omnivorous. He out-and-out fantasizes about eating fried chicken and porter-house steak. He gets snarky about people who carve their poultry wrong. Granted, he loved animals, but that love was at least partially gastronomical in nature.

Hitler was really truly a vegetarian as were the true Nazi believers – Rudolf Hess was very strict eating only organic. There are academic research on vegetarianism in the western culture. The idea is moral superiority – vegetarians think they are morally superior – hence it has been widely adopted by fascists in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Plato and Socrates ate meat (lamb, goat, beef) and fish. So much for accuracy.

No meat available in Da Vinci’s time.? THAT’s why he slept so little! It was all that extra rufage!

I am a proud Meatatarian. Vegetarians have only vegetables at meal time, I have been known to have meals consisting of only Meat. Meat is delicious, meat rules. Go meat!!!!
