The moment you stop eating meat you’ll notice just how hard society wants you to chew on dead animals. Your friends, your family, the TV commercials, the radio. They never talk about a juicy mushroom taco. It just Burger this and pork that everywhere you go. That’s what I mean by brutal. And its always an inconvenience for the cook to not add dead animal or smear your food with animal milk products.
I was on a work crew once when I was vegan. We cut trees and all rode to the locations in the same work van. One day we stopped for Ice Cream at a really popular place before calling it the day. Yay on the clock shenanigans, boo, it’s ice cream. They asked if I was cool with it, and of course I said I didnt mind, and just waited in the van.
I almost cried when my supervisor brought me out a slushy. I didn’t know they had them. It was very kind of my supervisor. No one ever made fun of me, but it was definitely obvious to everyone in day to day talk/life I had the dietary restriction.
It was also very surprising to me, how many chips use milk powder. I had a few kettle cooked salt and vinegar chips before reading the bag, and was shocked … Why? The pain.
They don’t just put it in there for fun, you can bet that milk powder affects the eating experience in a way most people enjoy. Snack companies invest a ton of money refining every nuance of their recipes.
Very nice supervisor though, the everyday compassion makes big impact.
Milk was the hardest to give up but also the cruelest of products because to get milk you have to starve baby calfs. But oat milk and soy milk seem great. Soy if you want big boobs. Costco has several brands of both.
I watched Earthlings while I was nursing my newborn. Thats all it took.
Regular milk was easy to give up, I like coconut milk better anyway, cheese was much harder to be honest. Still milk, but cheese was rough. Hummus was the only thing that could satiate the creving.
I’m pretty certain soy won’t give you “big boobs” unless you had a quantum fuckton of it, so much so, it’s impossible for a human to consume naturally.
No, plants do not like to be irrigated with any kind of milk. Plus I wouldn’t suggest to eat plants if I was a plant… I know, its what a vegan plant would say if asked if it was a vegan plant…
Smear? What milk products are you thinking of? What came to my mind was cheese (which you could call metan tofu, I suppose…), but I would usually expect cheese to be sprinkled, not smeared.
Even when I’m not a practicing vegan, I dislike cream cheese and sour cream. I cant order many things just because if you ask them to leave it off, you might not only get a look for it, but they may just put it on there anyway.
I threw a crunch wrap (black bean with cheese and jalapeno) out the window about ten years ago. Not my finest moment, but fuck sour cream, I was starving and it just ruined everything. Aye.
LOL, practicing. My boss calls me vegan flex because I’ll eat stuff without looking at the contents.
But you know, veganism is just a self control thing. Like capital punishment. We don’t allow it but every now and then someone in Texas just has to go do their thing on the electric seating arrangement. There’s little we can do sometimes. Veganism is a self control decision not to eat products or allow the torture and murdering of animals. So I can stop tomorrow if I decided to do that. It’s not a better than thou thing. Its not a religion or a club. We don’t high five each other. Its just an understanding that if you eat that burger, a happy cow with life a dreams will be murdered to replace it…and the burger contains the dismembered parts of a cow after it was murdered and tortured. So its a decision.
The first week of vegan is brutal. But it gets better.
I’ve been like this for months. I’m miserable. I’m a vegetarian because I hate animals. I have high blood pressure so I cut out animal fat and booze.
Interesting. I’m vegetarian because I love animals
If you hate animals, I don’t think you’re doing this right.
Nope I know what I’m doing. Animals are made of blood and guts which I find gross. They’re also annoying. I don’t want them to be a part of me.
Wait until you hear about the most annoying animal of all, humans!! Nobody’s supposed to eat those!
You’re not wrong.
Don’t let the establishment tell you what to not eat. Follow your wanderlust.
Wanderlust refers to travel. Which I would love to do again if I had money.
Cook mushrooms in rice or beans. Add wallnuts. Supposedly walnut and no other but has shown to help lower blood pressure.
not really. Especially if you have access to vegan chick’n nuggies and corn dogs and junk.

I gotta find that documentary.
Are you a plant?
No, plants do not like to be irrigated with any kind of milk. Plus I wouldn’t suggest to eat plants if I was a plant… I know, its what a vegan plant would say if asked if it was a vegan plant…
I was a vegan in the US and now I’m a vegetarian in Japan. Trust me, I know lol.
Smear? What milk products are you thinking of? What came to my mind was cheese (which you could call metan tofu, I suppose…), but I would usually expect cheese to be sprinkled, not smeared.
Butter or cream cheese
Oh, yeah, that does make sense. I’m not sure why my brain went up the garden path on that one.

I really didn’t mean to compare it to religion lol
I love mushroom derived flavors, but eating actual mushrooms, it’s always about texture never the taste
