    Humans, especially kids of vegans and vegetarians who still have growing bones, need a good, natural source of Calcium. Kale doesn't have anywhere near the amount milk and dairy do. Sardines do better because of the bones, but vegetarians and vegans don't eat them. And Calcium supplements can lead to kidney stones.

    But you know, I was thinking. Why not produce some natural source. Perhaps thru genetic engineering. Or just selective breeding.

    Here's my plan. Engineer or selectively breed an almond loaded with calcium. Then use it for almond milk. Almond milk is a beverage. Vegans also use it in cooking in place of milk.

    What do you think of my idea?

    Easier to just gnaw on bones, crack them with your teeth, and suck the marrow out.
    Voila! Calcium.

    My question is how can it be Natural if it's made thru genetic engineering?
    That just doesn't make Sense to Me?

    The quantities needed might be higher than a person's comfort level, but if you're trying to avoid animal products or by-products, there is going to be some consideration that needs to be taken.
