Ask your vet what they think about a vegan diet for your pets. They will tell you "no". That should really be the end to the discussion, but I guess these guys think they know better than actual experts.
It's so sad, because veganism is a good force in our culture. Look at all of the vegan meat alternatives and more and more restaurants that have to have at least vegetarian options in certain areas. That wasn't a thing 20 years ago.
Vegan diets help the environment and improve health. But many vegans get this brain rot, probably a consequence of a superiority complex where they have to police everything around them. It happens in a lot of communities.
I'm not a vegan. But the idea has me eating less and less meat every year.
I imagine most vegans are just ordinary people. And hell, good on them for making the environmentally friendly choice. I've been excited that my local stores are starting to carry plant-based alternatives that aren't expensive as hell. Fuck are the weirdos loud, though.
Impossible burgers are better than beef burgers and I’m fully prepared to die on this hill.
But I still eat meat, I just like that there’s options
I wouldn't mind switching to a complete vegetarian diet if they can get deep-fried chicken substitutes right.
I've made beyond smash burgers that are terrible for you, but sooo tasty.
I've had some baller chicken fried tofu.
KFC has a very good breaded fake chicken burger
I really really like Quorn (or however it's spelled) as a chicken substitute. The flavor has to be added artificially but I think the texture is pretty satisfying and reminds me of chicken.
There was a recent blind taste test for chicken nuggets (not chicken strips/tenders) and all the plant based nuggets, even the cheap ones, beat out the actual chicken ones.
Now, chicken strips, I agree with you, sadly.
Not better...but 95% there. I will order it anytime I can if it's reasonable price.
