    higher vitamin and omega content… than you pull out corn which is an empty calorie food

    The fact that you bring up vitamins as more important than calories means you don’t understand food supply problem/starvation. If there is a food supply problem, you need calories to survive. You can survive on corn. https://scienceinsights.org/what-vitamins-are-in-corn-from-b-vitamins-to-e/

    It doesn’t matter if a weed has more omega 3 per gram if you can’t get enough calories to live off of it.

    You even added uncontrollably.

    I was emphasizing that weeds grow easily without cultivation and are therefore an available substitute. But they don’t have the calories and are therefore not a substitute.

    because the british took their crops.

    Yes. But according to you, they could have gotten more nutrition from weeds. The Irish weren’t stupid. They didn’t die with perfectly nutritious weeds right in front of them. They ate everything possible and starved to death because weeds don’t have enough calories.

      god damn what a disingenuous person you are.

      People starve to death eating rabbit meat. Survival is not just about calories.

      I’m not gonna waste my time on you

        I didn’t say rabbit, I said corn.

        You are so butthurt about being called out for spreading dangerously wrong information that you are going into my history and down voting posts in other completely unrelated threads in other communities.

        What a clown.

        You are wrong about surviving on weeds. The rest of your post was good. Get over yourself.
