Triforce!  

I happen to be a doctor, and Sips, you have to change literally everything in your life and never stream again. By chance, I'm also a tech expert, and Pyrion, have you tried just fixing the problem and perhaps not being an idiot?

The fact that Pyrion went all this time without realising vegans don't eat eggs sent me

this week on triforce: vegans and eggs confuses larger egg, Sips needs to watch Simon Clark's climate videos, and Biden briefly has a cameo as an NPC

Sip, they don't add sugar to maple syrup. Maple sap is boiled until most of the water content is gone and the remaining maple syrup is mostly sugar.

A lot of the reason vegan's don't want to eat eggs is because of the production cycle of eggs. All hatched male chicks from laying breeds get thrown into giant meat grinders as soon as they have been sexed, as they are a waste product of the industry and due to being a laying breed can't / won't be used for meat. Many vegans I know will eat eggs but only from people they know or local farms, where they can see the conditions the chickens are in. In the UK most of the "organic" labeling on the packaging is to do with food standards rather than being cruelty free. Hope this gives you an insight into the vegan mind!

The way I squealed for Lewis when he said he's been talking to someone for a couple week ❤❤ Good for him I'm so excited for him

I was so worried about what uninformed stuff they are going to say about Palestine😅

Sips' take on veganism was the most accurate: "technically I can eat whatever the fuck I want, I dont need to explain myself to anybody"

I love the idea of Sips getting defensive of Lewis eating maple syrup.

48:59 I remember hearing or reading somewhere once that some of this increased notion of individuals being aware and responsible for our society’s climate impact was the idea of some marketing executives at the oil firms in the late 90s early 2000s. That it would soften their image and show they ‘cared’ by highlighting how it is our use of their product causing the impact. Think BP had a ‘Calculate your carbon footprint’ as one of the first interactive webpages on it in the 2000s.

"Let us know if you eat eggs". Becky, get in here! It's time! XD

Speaking of feeling old and fragil, I had a little tumble at the bus station earlier trying to skip a stair step. Found out the hard way I'm not young anymore.

I managed to develop an unbeatable toolset for determining what to believe. It requires demonstrable evidence and weight. It's led me to believe being wrong can only be a good thing because you have to put that right in the grand scheme of things. An important aspect of life that I came to realize is too much greed is never a good thing, especially if you pick and choose. You then lose sight of compassion.

Pyrion doesn't understand eggsploitation

Hehehe Pyrion being so anti vegetarian in the past while also saying he couldn't live like the US politician who denies climate change was funny. I'm not vegetarian but found it ironic

It's been over 2 years since I've watched a triforce podcast. But randomly choosing to watch it today was a great decision. Thanks gang for the laughs and good chat. Now it's time to go catch up on those 100 episodes I've missed.

The egg understands not why some people avoid eating egg It's a classic

I think the Palpen-tines bit might be the hardest I've laughed in weeks 🤣🤣

I've been single for two years after a 6 year relationship from when I was 19 , this hit hard. Love to all x

Pyrion "that's not advice, that's a suggestion" Flax

Lewis “Pinnacle of Health” Brindley

Whoa totally disinformation on eggs by Lewis on it being bad for you. Eggs are an amazing source of HDL cholesterol which PREVENTS heart disease etc. As well as many other good things.

#free_palentines

Oh god it says “palentines” in the title what are they gonna say about it

The fact that Pyrion still doesn't understand what a vegan is lmaoooo

Misread Palentines and thought this was gonna be an absurdly topical episode.

The thumbnail of prion, holding himself.. Great stuff!!!

I'm so glad the title didn't say what I thought it said

Dating apps must suck if a millionaire struggled.

I was wondering why Pyrion was so upset about egg, forgot he's an egg this whole time.

31:00 not a defensible postion? my brother, these people aren't preparing for a court trial regarding their egg decisions.

The way Pyrion pretends to be a dumbass with the whole egg thing is frustrating, does he really not know that most eggs come from factories with brutal living conditions for the animals? Even the 'free range' ones are shitty. Most people don't have the luxury of getting eggs from an allotment.

Modern chickens used in egg production have been bred to lay has many eggs as possible as big as possible. They don't lay eggs like a normal animal would. This takes a toll on the animals body. That is why eggs can be considered to still be "cruel" just like breeding pugs is cruel, fucking thing can barely breathe.

Eggs don't give high cholesterol

2 of my fav pods giving a sisqo shoutout

How are your guinea pigs doing Sips?

I fully understand not wanting to eat or use animal products because of the treatment of animals, but the argument that you're wildly more unhealthy for eating meat is just insane

Man I hope they talk about the Glasgow Willy Wonka fiasco that's went on on a future pod

Pyrion on chicken eggs: "You don't have to be mean to them, eggs just come out!" The problem is that people are mean to them, even if they don't have to. If people weren't mean to chickens and cows, vegans wouldn't mind milk and eggs. But people are mean to them in order to maximize milk and egg production, which is why it is a problem. Organic farms aren't a lot better. The chickens have been bred to lay an unnatural amount of eggs. You know how much women suffer because of their periods? Imagine that whole week packed into a single day, and that day is every day. In regards to Pyrion's argument about customers, the companies aren't only motivated by customers. If that was the case, child prostitutes would be a lot more common. When a lot of people find something appalling, laws and regulations are made to limit the appalling things. It doesn't matter how many would buy the product. If more conscientious and caring people stopped eating eggs, and only self-centered people Pyrion kept eating them, it wouldn't affect the treatment of the animals in a negative way. Because more people would care, the laws around it would be stricter, and therefore the chickens would experience less abuse. A second factor is that if sales and profits dip, companies will not have to keep up with the demand that motivates them to commit cruel practices. If sales dip because the practice is cruel, the companies will be motivated to not be. They'll want to advertise that their eggs are not cruelly sourced, but their competitors' are. This is the whole strategy behind ecological farming. And don't worry, you can still have pancakes. The magical recipe for pancakes without eggs is: don't put eggs in them. The egg does nothing. Also eggs taste and smell like fart, and it comes out of an animal's ass. Idk why anyone would eat eggs, regardless of morals. The thing about Pyrion, is that he's the classical Karen for anyone who's ever worked in customer service. He, like all Karens, only cares about what he wants, and in his mind, the entire universe revolves around what he wants. It the logic behind stuff doesn't matter at all, because he only sees one argument: "I want this thing." and every argument to make that happen. He doesn't accept anything but the argument that gives him his will.

I listen to the triforce all day. But this one was hard to listen to.

20:49 the channel Lewis referring to is NileBlue btw.

I feel for Sips. I've had 3 discs removed and vertebrae fused because of extreme nerve pain. It's not fun.

Lewlew is going to get lit up on the mailbag for this one Mr "animal products are bad" ok

I don't eat vegan because I can't bear going to get fresh produce 3 times a week 😂

Lewis making the claim meat is bad and only vegetables can keep you healthy is wild. It’s called moderation. Don’t only eat one or the other. Don’t eat a steak as big as your head and not every night. Likewise you aren’t going to be 100% on a vegetable only diet.

Sorry im two weeks late but, Pyrion, it's not hard, idk where Lewis is coming from he didn't do a good job explaining it, it's not a health thing, it's entirely a moral thing. If an animal is created just to be exploited for your taste buds it's immoral. Hens suffer just existing. Do you think laying an egg per day is normal or pleasant? If every bloke eats 2-4 eggs per day that's 4 chicken caged out there being bread just for that one guy. I'm not an expert but laying so many eggs is extremely taxing on their body, completely depletes them of calcium, results in broken bones, wounds etc...They are enslaved to lay, suffer through it until they can't, and then they are killed. Plus, when they are breeding laying hens, if the chicks are male, they are just thrown on a belt straight to a grinder.

Somehow Palentines returned?

I like when they talk about politics

Starting to think lewis is losing his marbles because of a severe lack of eggs in his diet!

Pyrion you are what you eat, 🥚

They finally flipped the forgotten RU-vid upload switch

Have you listened to any of Russell's stuff though

22:57 league legends ref

The problem vegans have with eggs is this: to produce eggs on a mass scale you have to farm chickens. Vegans object to any practice which requires any form of animal farming. Also chickens have been bread to produce more eggs than they should, be bigger than they should. Modern chickens have all kinds of health problems as a result of our interference. I love chickens. They are very funny. Bit they're a health nightmare.

I feel like Pyrion is greatly overestimating how much people like eggs. I just haven't bothered buying them for, like, a year. They're not all that great, they're kinda just okay--as far as my own pallette is concerned.

I'm not even Vegan and I find the idea of eating eggs quite off-putting. I don't avoid it as an ingredient in food I buy, but I haven't bought eggs to prepare something in over 10 years. I think it's just a mindset you get used to, where you actually think about what you're eating and are honest with yourself about whether it bothers you or not. Some people it does some it doesn't.

Pyrion you can't assume a chicken "doesn't care" if her eggs are collected so stop pushing that argument, it's annoying, you're not a chicken for god's sake. Unless you are...

God, Flax was exceptionally frustrating to listen to in this episode. Just yelling "I need to understand the eggs... " over and over when it's clear that Lewis and Sips don't understand veganism and its motivations either took up half the episode. I'm not sure how long I can go on listening to triforce honestly.

Genuinely thought it said Palestine 🇵🇸

Everyone knows that Valentines Day is Dirtbag Christmas. Galentines is just a group of desperate women!

Lewis is always talking about Japan but he's really learnt nothing. Population decrease, eggs...

is meat ACTUALLY bad for the human body? or is it just another disingenuous meme that stems from "meat is bad if you eat three steaks a day" kind of shit?

Pyrion not understanding what veganism is despite being in a podcast with them for years is honestly surprising. And him getting mad during it is more telling, too. He's honestly the epitome of annoying vegetarian/vegan conversations to me. Sure, veggies can be annoying, but people that get mad over vegetarians are way more annoying than vegans are.

The Karl Pilkington of the yogscast expecting his friends to explain basic stuff to him while being extremely close minded as usual.

Pyrion is making the biggest mistake and trying to argue with vegans using logic, lol. If they USED logic, they wouldn't be vegan or vegetarian.

jesus christ, lewis is 40 and he is worried about what people think about him being single on valentines day… grow some freaking balls for christ‘s sake!

Lewis has no idea what he is talking about in refrence to food. Eggs are super foods. cholesterol isnt bad. do your own research and stop trusting big brands

Lewis claims on animal products being bad for you is wrong, please for the good of your health don't cut them out humanity did not evolve to be vegan or even exclusively vegetarian.

Eggs are disgusting Pyrion. Both in flavor and in what it is and where it comes from. Lay off, mate

Lewis and Sips: Mention animal cruelty and how difficult it is to ensure animals are treated humanely, and how unlikely it is to have friends with chickens for eggs. Old Man Pyrion: YOU HAVE NO ARGUMENT AGAINST EGGS Pyrion looks so much like an egg it feels he took the anti-egg rhetoric as racist. lmao
