Good, because kidney is the best meat, full stop. I'm not kidding america; lamb kidney is literally the tastiest, best meat on the planet, perhaps equaled by egg. Deviled kidney for breakfast, and butter-fried egg on toast with tomato sauce. Roast kidney with cumin for lunch. Steak and kidney pie for tea, followed by port. The rational actor aims for this every day

Uh, I doubt that. Every morning I eat eggs with black pudding (god damn America for its lack of lamb kidneys) or porridge. Sardines on toast when time presses. Then I eat some random disgusting American foodstuff for lunch (a "sub" or a Mexican thing or I get to go and eat eggs on toast in a diner) and a cup of tea. Then for tea my mother in law cooks Chinese food; usually a bowl of soup, some rice, and a vegetable or tofu dish and some meat. with tea, and then I drink port depending on the workload.
I will live forever

oh yeah, I eat veggies and whatnot. Cucumber sandwiches etc; I don't shy away from greens, I just don't count them on the roster. It's like naming the helots who died besides the Spartans.

plus it's unhealthy, i mean if you mentioned cow trotters, ox tail, or such i would understand, but everything you like (liver, brain, etc.) is extremely high in cholesterol. i would eat liver all day long if i could but damn you are a weird self harming fetishist

go to a butcher you idiot
It's a bother; I did go to the butchers when I was younger, but I am no longer responsible for grocery shopping. Now the one who is just goes to the local place here in Chinatown, and there's just mountains of pork kidney. Fried chicken gizzards are great and cheap, though; 2 dollars for dinner yes please.

I eat ox tail soup and pig feet; the former can go into some rather unhealthy soup, and the latter just seems fatty. I mean, I like them, but there seems to be a high fat content for both.
Also, how is brain or liver bad for you? When you eat an organ, you absorb the power. I don't eat them that often, brain especially rarely, but they both make for good breakfast with eggs. Also, heart stew mmmm.

the only meat better than kidney is egg, which isn't a meat at all. therefore all meat is bad, ergo lets all be vegetarians

the above is a falsh dichotomy, i want a third fast-food option. so what is the third fast-food joint? not some kind of transcendental burger which enables a fake, fast-food religious experience, but a meal that would enable me to perceive not the reality behind the illusion but the reality in illusion itself. that fast food joint, ladies and gentlemen, is mcd's, and that food, the mcrib.
