Vegans! What do you think of them?

I recently became vegan (for ethical reasons) and realized that it's much easier than I previously anticipated it would be. :) So that puts a smile on my face. I'm wondering what those who post here think of veganism.

And, if anyone has any questions about the lifestyle, feel free to ask! :D

since they eat primarily grains and vegetables, i find vegans to be quite tasty and easy to digest.
 
I my opinion.... do what you want as an adult... but putting or having a child on that type of diet is child abuse.
And doing so to a normally meat-eating animal is abusive as well.

Every once in a while I'll see these self-righteous pricks come into the vet with their doggie on a meatless diet and it makes me want to drop-kick the owner and feed the poor mutt a steak.

Our dogs are on grain-free diets of nothing but meat largely because that's what God wants them to eat.


I am so with you.... since the owners are vagan.... they put their poor pets on a vegan diet. Its just crazy in my opinion.

The human body is a meat eater. Your mental opinion makes you want to be vegan.


I really don't care what you want to eat...or not to eat. I DO care when vegans or vegetarians INSIST they be accommodated.

I my opinion.... do what you want as an adult... but putting or having a child on that type of diet is child abuse.

exactly... that whole a fish is a cow is a dog is a boy thing is deranged. and i have no patience for people who put animals ahead of humans.

i heard one animal rights activist say he would let his own child die rather than give it a baboon heart.... of course, cleveland amory had no children, so easy for him to spew that kind of nonsense, he should rest in peace.

i'm sorry... that's mentally ill as only an irrational zealot can be mentally ill.

and having dealt with animal rights activists, i am never overly impressed with people who are okay with lying compulsively to advance their agenda.


Now dont get me started on PETA freaks.... that is a totally different thread.


Its a flat lifestyle choice.... i have no issue with that. But when it gets to the point where they want a restaurant not to store their meats with the veggies... or use the same pans that meat was cooked in.... or demand that they offer vegan choices.... oh fuck that.

An acquaintance of mine put her cats on a vegan diet. They rebelled and killed off the song birds in her neighborhood.

One cannot fool Mother Nature...

Free range vegans? You haven't lived....
 
All I know is I like meat and when I eat a lot of meat and only a little green veggies, I feel better than I do when I eat a little meat and a lot of grains and veggies.

If I had a chef, I'd have that guy cooking meat 24/7 and I'd never eat anything else. All my aches and pains disappear when I'm low carb.
 
And my dogs agree. They're allergic to everything except chicken and pork and venison. They don't even do well on beef.
 
I had a cat that loved tomatoes and lettuce once.

Klaus and Mylo will eat anything that's not nailed down.

And then I get to deal with inflamed ears, itchy scratchies, and bright red checkerboard butts (well butt, Mylo) and bellies for a couple of days.

Taking animals off of meat based diets will kill them..... simple as that.

my bunny likes veggies. :)

but he also stole tuna on a cracker from my son and took it into his hutch to eat.

go figure. :dunno:

Little devil!!! :lmao:

Bunnies built as herbivores...... but it would seem, yours at least likes tuna.
 
I had a french lop and made the mistake of putting my half-grown pet chicken in her hutch with her for a minute. She had the poor thing by the neck and almost killed it in about 2 seconds flat! I had to use a broken-handled hoe to push the rabbit back so I could rescue the bok-bok. It was traumatizing for us all.
 
@ California - I am a vegan because I don't want to support (with my dollar) the meat and dairy industries, which are known for treating their animals very cruelly and inhumanely. I also don't want anything to have to die for me to eat it. I can eat other things. :)

@ Si Modo - I haven't heard of things like tires or plastic bags containing animal products. I'm still learning but that is not something I've heard before. As for things like toothpaste, shampoo and other similar items, they make vegan ones too. My new vegan hand soap actually smells great. The scent is so nice and it lingers on my hands after I've washed them for quite a while, which I like.

So you would prefer to drive the whole industry, even those who treat their animals well, out of existence? You prefer a world where cows are an 'endangered' species that you can only see in zoos? How strange.

I buy meat - but I only buy from ethical farming. This means I support good farming practice, and I also ensure that the cows at the farm at the end of my lane, live happy lives, and that the farm land stays as farm land instead of being sold off for development. Thanks, but no thanks to your way. Your way will lead to the destruction of animals that I love.

Industries stay in business because they meet a need. If enough people decide they no longer want to buy a product, that industry shrinks and sometimes disappears.

This is the free market that you so-called 'conservatives' claim to revere.

Until it's inconvenient.

CG is a socialist ;) Cow zoos lol. She is sooo obsessed w/ being the most pretentious beeatch on this board its cringe-worthy. VeganMe is much more adorable :)

Since I really do not like most kinds of vegetables cooked, I would starve as a vegan.

Probably a great way for me to go on a crash diet.

Immie

Actually, I'm glad you said that. :) (I'm not a veggie fan either!) It's a common misconception that "all vegans eat are vegetables and fruits." There are plenty who do eat that way. They like to call themselves "raw foodists" or "fructarians."

I personally couldn't eat that way either, I'd be too hungry and weak. Other vegans (who aren't talked about as much because our diets aren't extreme) eat everything the rest of the population eats, just with vegan ingredients.

We can have fake meat, cheese pizza, macaroni, PB&J sandwiches, mexican, ice cream, cakes and cookies, and just about any other "normal" food you can think of. The only difference is they are made with no animal products - but that's it. :)
