[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1262438, member: 9096"] Bez.. you say exactly what I've been saying to the same people.. water doesn't disappear... I could believe the number of 450 gallon per burger though... I use about 500GPM for 6 months of the year to raise 30 calves.. that's about 130,000,000 gallons! Lets say I dropped the cow count to 20 to raise the calves to be finished, then that comes to 6.5 million gallons needed per animal... if there are 2000 burgers per animal, then that's 3240 gallons per burger. I'm not concerned about how many gallons the toilet uses when I flush either. [/QUOTE]
