    It’s the meat heads obsessed with the topic. The only reason most vegans would mention their food preference is because food is part of most peoples life’s 3 times a day. But when discovered the questioning is relentless.

      Interesting that people on either side are being accused of being obsessed when it’s the literal subject of the post we’re discussing under

        In any post about veganism, you’ll get two types of idealist. People who make this unilateral sacrifice to help the world, and people who get defensive about not making yet another unilateral sacrifice. And they both have a lot to say.

      And people always forget. “Why do vegans go on and on about it?” Because we want to be able to eat? For my stag do, my brother forgot THREE times to get me vegan products. THREE. And then complained because I “mention it too much”…I just wanna eat!

          I respect animals and but I want to keep eating meat, so I tried looking for, you know, more ethical farms.

          The best I could find is a chicken that lives a year before it’s slaughtered (compared to 60 days or less for factory farming), roams and isn’t caged.

          It costs 8-12 times more than the cruelty chicken.

          God damn.
