Unless you're in California or any other area with a low water table. Then it's a huge issue.

Compare this person’s shower to the many farms growing almonds in the same state.

If I was Governor of California I'd push to make it so Almonds and Alfalfa can't be grown during the drought seasons.

I can live without a legume and I don't think I know a single person in my entire circle's circles who has eaten alfalfa.

The alfalfa isn't for humans, it's for high intensity dairy and cattle farming.

Yup, it’s just beef, cheese and milk. Though if you can find them without e.coli their sprouts are good on sandwiches too.
