I thought it was interesting that this exploration of the concept of moral absolutism used "it is wrong to eat beef" as an example, but only in the context of belief systems, not in terms of the environmental impact of food choices. Because that would have been an interesting discussion: is it "wrong" to not act in the best interest of the environment? If so, is it wrong to run my air conditioner, or fly to Asia and back?

Good for LA for sticking up for cyclists.

Yes, Russians love their dill. If you don't like it, don't go to Russian restaurants. Would you criticize Hungarians for indiscriminate use of paprika? Try 'When in Rome' and shut the f* up.
