    Oh yeah, I’d love it to be sans beans… it’s just not going to be cost worthy for my budget. Good chili makes sense to not have beans, but whispers privilege, haha

        Yeah space is the issue. I personally had 13 chickens and just reduced the size yesterday to 7 because egg production was to high and good laying hens are worth more alive than butchering. Also, I love the boogers so I couldn’t eat them. The amount of space it takes to have a garden that could sustain 2 people is around 4 acres really. Unpractical for most people. Also impossible to have animals in that area without containing them to tiny areas many wouldn’t agree with. Self sufficiency is rough in the confines we practice most places… But expanding areas only hurts society in other ways. (Drive times, resource usage, etc)

        I get what you mean though.
