The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

It's all about selling the idea that you can do away with meat if you're a meat lover. For a lot of them, that's not going to happen by just saying "hey eat vegan food!"

But if you say "yo, taste this burger - whadayathink? I know right?!! Can you believe it's not made out of cow?!" Then maybe, maybe, the dude will say "you know what? For my next bbq Imma use impossi-burgers - damn tasty those thingies!"
