An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
Me sending food mentions to friends: Why do you have to bring up veganism, we always fight.
Them sending me a video where chicken nuggets are the punchline: have a funny video.
Infuriating, it's literally just don't challenge norms. You are different and must tolerate us, you are different and we don't need to tolerate you.
yep, shit like this has turned food from one of my favorite hobbies to something I get anxious about sharing with others.
and my carnist friends love to tell me about how they enjoyed some corpses because they know i'm into food and cooking and i have no idea how to respond. yeah I love food and cooking but i'm not going to compliment you for mutilating and eating a dead animal dude
Man saaaaaaame. I used to look forward to going out to eat with friends. While I'm very glad I made the change, and would do it again, I do kinda mourn the ability to go out without researching the spot ahead of time.
The problem is calling vegan foods the same as meat foods....you didn't eat a hotdog, you ate heavily processed soy mixed with scraps of vegetables and other powders and nutrients. Veggie dog, plant dog, soy stick... whatever but calling it the meat name (hotdog = frankfurter= beef/pork product) is what causes your annoyances.
D'oh, of course "hot" means "meat". Why didn't I see that all along!
Choosing hotdogs as your bastion against vegan foods being processed is fucking hilarious
Lol meatsplained
nobody asked you, carnist
heavily processed soy mixed with scraps of vegetables and other powders and nutrients
As opposed to meat-based hot dogs which are heavily processed cow with scraps of pig and other powders and nutrients
I propose "plantcock"
Breathe, my guy, it’s gunna be ok.
Also the ikea vege dogs are literally whole chunks of vegetables. I get them because they come with other toppings that the meat hotdogs don’t come with.
That's a classic.
