Would a vegan/vegetarian buy and cook meat if they hosted a BBQ?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I was vegetarian for 11 years, fully plant based for 2, and I did cook meat at events with people who ate meat. No demographic is a singularity, though, and there are many veggie folk who wouldn't, either on ethical grounds or on grounds of having no bloody clue how to cook meat properly.

Is meat eating a moral or religious belief?

I mean maybe, maybe not. Completely different argument though. You don't have a moral or ethical opposition to eating food that is vegetarian or supporting it as an industry. (Or, at least, you shouldn't and if you do then I have questions)

But they'd make sure that there were gluten free buns if there was someone who couldn't eat gluten, which is a more apt comparison.

My Vegetarian friend did this yesterday. He was the only vegetarian at the BBQ he threw.

Probably? I don't eat meat at home save for very specific occasions and I would but, you know, there are a lot of different people out there.
