No one gets pissed off like that. My friend says “you want some food? here try this.” “What is it?” “Dude just try it.” “Fine”
I trust my friends and family to not poison me. I can assume if they feed me its okay to eat and if anything is surprising its something like “thats vegan meat, isnt that crazy?” I also know who my vegan friends are because I can at least empathize with their goals. I drastically reduced my meat consumption because of it, and Im happy with this lifestyle. Oatmilk is awesome and Im glad i branched out haha.
I mean to say, certainly strangers have never gacw you something to feed you and deceived you about what they fed you. Certainly that’s never happened?
Of course not. But I just can’t understand for the life of me why anyone would have a problem with the delicious food they just ate turning out to be vegan.
Maybe if previous groundwork had been laid, the relationship was otherwise strong, and it wasn’t at such a symbolic event as Thanksgiving. But deception really burns a lot of bridges.
My family has major issues with certain ingredients so we have to read every label pretty well. This is about safety. You don’t just hide shit like this from people.
Does vegan substitute turkey taste/feel like real turkey now? The only time I ever had something like that was years ago and it was terrible. If that stuff hasn’t improved I’d rather they just make some other vegan dish that’s actually good and isn’t just trying to be something it’s not. Or at least give me a heads up so I can eat something else before I come over. I’m not going to fight someone about it though.
Just did a quick google search and the products that came up look to be the same as what I had before.
It doesn’t even matter. That chud would be upset if the same happened in reverse, if someone hid meat is their food without telling them.
The problem here is that they have an agenda, and all actions are OK if it means their agenda is met. It’s about, “the ends justify the means”.
People who feel “I’m OK with deceiving someone who disagrees with me” are the worst kind of people. They treat their point of view as the one truth and any action can be justified if it meets the needs of the one truth.
Yes, and maybe the sauce was made with vegan cream and zucchini was used instead of eggplant. The only thing that matters is whether it tastes good. Why does it matter if an animal died for it?
If you substituted the tofu for a nut alternative you could be bringing people in harms way. They might not be deathly allergic but maybe it messes with their digestion or some medicine.
Open communication over food is important. Never trick people.
Some people don’t take well to soy. This might not have been the reason for the altercation here but that doesn’t excuse trickery.
Why?
Because i don’t like being deceived.
“Oh no, there wasn’t any animal in this delicious meal. I feel so cheated.”
“Oh, no, you fed me something and chose to withhold its nature from me. I actually feel a bit pissed.”

I have a ton of serious issues related to foods. I promise you I will get fighting mad if someone puts something on my plate and hides their intent.
certainly not strangers?
If they conceal something for sport, yes.

So you’re fine if they would have skipped real Turkey into your vegan dish?
Of course not. But I just can’t understand for the life of me why anyone would have a problem with the delicious food they just ate turning out to be vegan.
Are you really that obtuse?
The problem isn’t the food, it’s the lie. Maybe you don’t have a problem with being lied, but the rest of us do.
Delicious lol
Does it matter, or isn’t it even positive, if the deception was successful?
Maybe if previous groundwork had been laid, the relationship was otherwise strong, and it wasn’t at such a symbolic event as Thanksgiving. But deception really burns a lot of bridges.
hey, if I swapped out your food for something I thought was better for buy you were actually allergic to, would you be okay with that?

It’s not what I am expecting. If it was agreed upon, then fine. You don’t just spring a tofu turkey on unsuspecting guests.

This is not about the animal.
