Vegans

[still kicking]

Don't get me wrong I do eat vegan food sometimes but I get annoyed when Vegans tell me what to eat, most of our food is half Vegan. So 98% of the world would be starving living on the oceans half of the farmers would lose their jobs no butchers anymore  I could go on and on.

I was going to make a joke about Vegans, but that would be tasteless🤣

Vegans always tell us (after they announce that they ARE Vegan,) that we are cruel to kill animals for our food.

They say they refuse to do that...

None of them have ever plowed a field to grow those vegan veggies, killing dozens of field mice, voles, moles, shrews, deer mice, and destroying only God knows how many different animal homes. Every time a farmer plows a field they die.

Vegans = it's OK to kill ugly, creepy animals, just not the cute ones.

people can eat whatever they want to but no one has the right to try to force everyone else to become vegans and go out of their way to try to make meat eaters look like criminals. Vegans  take suplements  for a balanced diet to cover up for the food they refuse to eat, this alone shows that a vegan diet is not as great as they try to make out. Now we see they are trying to claim cavemen ate a vegan diet which is in itself a laugh but shows the desperation they are going to  to make themselves look natural. Then we have the vegan restaurants going broke or having to introduce non vegan dishes to their menus to try to get customers to use them, unfortunately for vegans the general public are not interested in doing it, vegans need to accept they are the odd ones out  and leave everyone else to their own gastronomic preferences without all the drama and BS they carry on with.

Along with the numerous land developers that care nothing about tearing down millions of trees to put up houses in the country where deer, rabbits, squirrels, porcupines, raccoons, and innumerable birds live, just to they can have a million dollar house in the suburbs to show off to their friends.

Vegans are screwed up people with no clue about how the body works! Veggies are NOT food for us....just some un-necessary thing they put beside my steaks!! Also, everything they eat are sprayed with toxins, the soil get poisoned and will be taken up by next plants sowed in that soil! There are countless incidents of vegans ending up as mentally suffering people and other diseases. Total ignorant "kids"!!

Not eaten meat or fish for 52 years but I find most vegans intolerable and intolerant. People should feel they can eat what they like without being lectured by these food fascists. The world would be better without butchers, and vegans.

How many times have you found yourself saying "I didn't know you were a vegan" to a friend or acquaintance who is vegan?

Never?

It is not so much the killing of the animals that puts me off meat, it is the cruel ways the animals are kept.

When I can buy free range eggs, free range pork etc I am more than happy to pay extra.

It is hard to find in Thailand.

I am not a vegan but if I am tossing up on a menu between two dishes and one has no meat I will go the veg dish.

i do admire vegans.

in my ideal world the animals would have a happy life, killed quickly and painlessly.

Who actually isn't bothered by animals being slaughtered? 

 

But it's hard to maintain health without meat. 

 

If scientists can come up with an alternative to meat that tastes good and is as healthy as meat, let's get rid of farming and livestock for once and for all and stop butchering animals.

 

But it hasn't happened yet.

Hundreds of millions maintain health without meat, the Hindus in India for example. Meat is not necessary for health at all.

I think that obnoxious vegan lecturing you and demanding you change what you eat lives mostly in your brain.  I would bet real money you have never actually had a conversation like that.

Excellent!!! That is exactly the reason I don't eat chicken, pork or beef.  I actually have no problem with the quick death of the animal, it is the long suffering life of factory farmed animals I don't want to participate in.

 

I have never lectured anyone about it. What to eat is a personal decision and we all make ethical compromises.

Yes, but supplementing might not be a bad idea, unless on a very well planned vegan diet.

If you want to be vegetarian, India is the place to do it.
