...but yeah, let's all remember not to, um, mischaracterize the guy's beliefs, or try to shut him up, or anything really mean like that, right?

who the fuck asked for this article lol

Is Heidi coming back any time soon so there can be some actual reporting around here?

Oh, sweet Jesus, who fucking cares? Is this what the Stranger has sunk to?

When men were men and the sheep were nervous.

How many people want to join my "Days Until Katie Herzog Quits or Gets Shit-Canned" pool? I'd say we can break it down into 15 day increments.

I'm going with: 135 Days.

Good God, hasn't this dimwit ever heard of scurvy? Holy shit, this is all hilarious in a kind of rich-man-sets-fire-to-his-anal-hairs kind of way, except for the issue the reporter covered. Good job, Katie -- keep up the good work. It isn't easy finding a way to remind (or enlighten) folks about the damage they do simply by buying a burger, but you did it. (That was sincere, by the way).

Katie, this is a wierd article.

But on the other hand, I whole heartedly recommend all JBP fanboys/girls adopt this JBP certified diet. It will help you stand up straighter and immediately clean your room!

Katie’s doing a great job. JP needs to attend to the choas at home and not pontificate crap when he and his are obviously a sandwich short of a picnic. Funny how these know it all men really know so damn little.

Chaos

Eating a large amount of fatty food (meat, cheese, &c.) can produce colorectal cancer because of the long amount of time the resulting waste material will sit at the lower end of the GI tract. (By that point, the body has dumped all kinds of poisons into it for imminent disposal, so keeping it around is a bad idea.)

As Paracelsus taught us, the dosage makes the poison. Beef has a lot of nutrients packed into it, so she simply may not be eating much of it. This would tend to mitigate any ill effects.

Humans are highly adaptable, and our being omnivorous is one of those adaptations. We’re also highly diverse in our physiologies. She might indeed live to a ripe old age on her diet.

However, like another commenter upthread, I myself would recommend her diet only to persons who I wouldn’t mind not seeing anymore. ;-)

Was it too hard to spell JP's daughter's name correctly? Not that I care for that weirdo (and, now, apparently, his entire family), but her name is Mikhaila. Which was too difficult for you, as you typed Mikhalia or Mikahlia.

Odd fact, apropos of almost nothing- this diet was practiced by Augustus Owsley Stanley III most of his life. Didn't kill him. Neither did consuming super-human dosages of LSD. Died in a car wreck.

The all beef diet is an express route to colon cancer. Elimination diets are not based on science.

In Montana, lamb is a vegetable.

owsley approved.

"I'm going with: 135 Days."

By then Katie Herzog will have enough Twitter followers to officially join the IDW. After watching Brett Weinstein and his wife, Heather Heying, talking about animal sex with Joe Rogan, I see a threesome in Katie's future. Only an intellectual one of course.

This is stupid. If you’re gonna to write articles like this then you need to also be upset about Peterson jetsetting around. His tours are much worse for the environment then his meat only diet (i’m assuming he’s flying from t.o. to seattle and not busing around)...

@3 considering Heidi was shit talking katie on Twitter a couple weeks ago with Sydney...(they didn’t use names but it was pretty clear it was shots at the “left is too extreme” articles)

Although i’d take this article over a Rich “why doesn’t festival food cost as much as happy hour food” Smith rant about Peterson.

@24

I dunno man, to me this is not so much about JP's carbon footprint, and quite a bit more about how far off his fucking rocker he is.

And I kind of liked "This Taco Tastes Terrible During The Daylight When I Am Sober," it just needed a little reworking to nail down that Onion house style-- it's a little harder to pull off than they make it seem over there.

So you’re saying that if we just shut up about it and let these people eat all meat all the time, over the course of a couple years, we could have BOTH some real data to look at, and fewer douchebags in all probability.

I encourage this man and all his followers to start eating this way, exclusively and immediately.

A short list of things they don’t eat which makes the terror of living even more unbearable: pizza, egg rolls, Phad Thai, pasta, popcorn, chocolate, tuna sandwiches, unagi, Tim’s potato chips, Ellenos yogurt, ice cream, scallops, grilled peaches, cheese curds, quinoa, chicken wings, beets, grilled corn, goddamn delicious blueberries, candied walnuts, creamed spinach, baked potatoes, Honeycrisps, coffee, fresh crab, zucchini, lemon bars, French fries, s’mores, paella, gyros, fish and chips, baby asparagus, avacados, cinnamon toast, biscuits...I pray to whatever higher power might exist that the notion of depriving myself of culinary abundance as some kind of path to wellness never enters my head.

Also, I’ve been on this site for a long time and have contributed a number of pieces to both Slog (not just as a commenter) and the print edition, and I think Katie is the best Stranger writer they have right now.

I literally only hear this man's name on the pages of this blog, and I am already extremely tired of him.

There has to be something more worth your time than this guy.

Yeah. Katie ROCKS.

This is some late-stage Michael Jackson/Howard Hughes level of crazy. Even if you accept their fanciful tales at face value, their extreme diet is leaving their bodies ridiculously brittle, incapable of tolerating the slightest variation in their intake. In the Atlantic story, the daughter says she suffered three weeks of joint pain, anxiety and acne from eating a steak with pepper on it. And when the father drank a little cider he not only claims that his next month was sleepless, but that he was wracked by a sense of impending doom. If your "health" plan leaves you so fragile that you can be laid out for weeks by pepper or cider, that's a terrible plan.

The reason The Stranger prints shit (and that's what 90% of it is, SHIT) is because in the age of the internet it costs very little in terms of cash to publish online shit. Except for time but let's face it, even long form pieces that come out of The Stranger or Vox took an hour at the most to puke out of Google Docs.

30 years ago it cost real money to produce a piece and publish it. You had real life material and more than a handful of employees to get a piece of writing out into the public eye which lead to much more scrutiny of what would see the light of day.

Liberals burping, farting, methane-spewing machines as well. I say we eliminate them before we even think about the cows.

I hope they get bitten by that tick that makes you allergic to meat.

This sounds just as loony as the people who say that they use natural oils to heal their sick unvaccinated children. Though in this case they're at least only killing themselves and not any innocent children.

Wait... For the crowd that cries for tolerance and understanding in all other life choices, they want to criticize this? If it works for them, then so what? Are you going to argue with their experience? SMH... Two people going full carnivore ain't gonna kill the planet.

Reads more like virtue signaling than an elaborate troll. Who is the most annoying neighbor? The one who tries to cow you into adopting an abstemious diet.

Wow... the Left is so scared of Peterson that they think enough of us are willing to even change our diets for him. Hilarious.

By the way... I am not going to kill myself... so more meat will be needed for my nourishment. And, I am not the least bit sorry about it.
