PB & J sandwiches VS. Hamburgers








OR


Say that your having an outdoor picnic on a hot summers day and your family is grilling hamburgers. What would your reaction be? Yes I know that you may be thinking, "Yum, hamburgers" but think again. Hamburgers are actually much more harmful to the environment then PB & J sandwiches.Burgers are bad for the environment because, first off the cows! Cows are really wasteful based on what they give us back. Cows can take up a whole field of grass to give us a few gallons of milk and a couple pounds of meat. Also the water wasted on hamburgers is A LOT. Think of this how much water does it take to feed a cow? Then think of how much water it takes to water tomatoes, pickles, and lettuce for the toppings. The cow alone is a ton of water! So, as you can see, you're better off with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich!
