I don't eat meat and I was not offended by this sundae at all. It looks like an interesting cute way to serve something. Kind of like art. I just wouldn't want to eat it or let any child within 10 feet of it. Maybe they should try to make a balanced sundae vegan or not without all the fat and carbs add somemore veggies.

They are present in vegetarian animals such as gorillas as well, so you'll have to remove that from your list of rationalizations. I had to. One more comment about “canine” teeth.

I'd like to see you tackle a steer and tear it apart with those ferocious incisors :D admit it, it just comes down to that honest statement: ..."it just tastest good."

I checked the date and it says "April 7th" but I can't help but feel that this is an April fools day press release that has been caught a week late. Steak ice cream!? I've heard of snail porridge and bacon ice cream, but this has to be a wind up. As for promoting health, what happened to telling the chubby kids to eat their greens once in a while! Sure, this may make a lovely treat for anyone who is pregnant,and craves weird foods, but to give it the face of being a nutritious food is a bit silly. It's meat and potatoes, with gravy. Do people actually eat this kind of stuff? This looks like it has to be fake.

Even my omni sister thinks that looks disgusting! Who would eat that? And yes, it is 100% possible to live a life as a vegetarian or vegan, and we have less exposure to supergerms and the e. cole virus! You can't call that sundae healthy- the only nutritious part of potatoes is the skins, and steak is often fatty or undercooked. And it isn't like a kid wouldn't just pick off the tomatoes!

Plant food provides an adequate amount of protein. Eating protein does not create protein in a body. A body uses amino acids which is present in all plant foods. And vegetables, nuts and seeds actually provide more calcium than dairy products. The book The China Study is a huge source of information and extensive study on fat, protein and disease related to animal product consumption. The US is the top of the charts re meat consumption. There are other nations with larger populations, lower meat consumption and much lower disease. You can eat animal food is you want to but that doesn't mean you are being nourished better or will be healthier by all means. Just wanted to clear up a misconception about protein.

If your children don't want to eat meat, don't make them eat it. Americans don't have to worry about protein. You can get plenty of protein from nut butters, dairy, and plant based sources. I wouldn't feed my dog that sundae. This looks as healthy as Spam. If your children don’t want to eat meat, don’t make them eat it. Americans don’t have to worry about protein.

Turn all the cows loose in the streets cause we're not gonna eat em any more! News flash - people eat animal products. People like eating meat and drinking milk. It's the only reason that cows, pigs, etc. are raised and an important part of our econonmy. Also it's nutritious. Humans need protien - which is easiest to find in animal products. We evolved with canine teeth! Plus, it just tastes good. If you want to be a vegetarian or a vegan, good for you. I support that choice BUT it is just that- a choice.

C'mon you meat industry tools, don't you want your children to be able to distinguish their fattening disgusting cholesterol-ridden murderous meal from their oversweetened frozen concoction derived from the breast milk of pregnant cattle? This could so confusing that they might be turned off to both, and you wouldn't want them to eat something that is not only healthy but also cruelty-free as well would you.
