Germans Eating Less Meat?

 Well....yes.

N-TV had a 3-minute piece today and talked of the past forty years in Germany.

According to their data....late 1970s....a German household ate 6.7 kilograms of meat per month.  Today?  2.3 kilograms of meat per month....a third less.

Pork consumption....two-thirds of a cut over a forty-year period.

Eating more vegan-type menus?  To some degree.  But I would suggest (having been here in 1978) that a fair number of German guys were eating a hefty amount of meat per day in that period.  But a lot of the jobs being done were physical labor type, and you burned the calories off.  I don't see that issue existing today.

A continuing downward trend?  I would suggest the bulk of the downward trend has ended, and will level out.

If you did measure up healthy eating in 1978, and tried to measure it today.....you'd find that three-quarters of German people probably eat better today than in 1978.  


The Three Stages of the 'UFO-Elephant' in the Room

 After a fair amount of pondering over my entire life....I've come to this reality.

For most of the past, we all talked of this weirdness over UFOs, and simply fantasized over the whole thing.  We wrote books over it.  We made movies over it.  We went to meetings and conferences over it.

This is what I'd call stage one.

So, over the past year....a lot of chatter has occurred where the Pentagon finally wants to come clear and admit 'something'.  They have yet to do say anything of real value....other than hinting that something is going to be released in 2021, and it's strongly hinted that the mystery only gets deeper in scope.

That's stage two.

So you come to this potential third stage where you lay some bits of evidence on the table and basically say....some highly advanced things lay on the table, to which they aren't man-made.

Then in the middle of this.....you kinda hint for the third stage....that this technology (in their hands) is still ten-thousand to a hundred-thousand years in the future for us to understand (my humble belief).  At that point, you will go off and start pondering certain things.

It'll involve an awful lot of pondering.
