Hullo 👋

Looking to invest in my health & well-being with a transition into more vegan products--wanted to hear your thoughts, let me know! ✌️

i cant think of anything less leftist than choosing to pay for the slaughter of innocent, child-like beings, sexually exploit them, and while doing so unavoidably paying for one of the leading cause of the climate crisis

everyone's "radical leftist" and "remember, you are not immune to propoganda" until you bring up the animal and environmental suffering we've been raised to ignore

It's really strange to me how some people only criticize plastic through the lens of it being "vegan plastic", as if non-vegans aren't also using plastic products, including fake leather. The same with slave labor and crops. Like I've literally seen someone say how harmful vegan vegetables are in agriculture and I'm just like, do you only eat meat??? Do you not eat vegetables??? I just don't understand the whole "if you're vegan and not using animal products then you love slave labor and plastic". Consuming animal products doesn't automatically mean you're not using plastic or buying anything that was produced from slave labor in the same way that being vegan doesn't mean animals aren't getting killed somewhere along in the process of you getting food on your plate. Also, using animal products doesn't automatically mean good for the environment, cuz usually somewhere along the way there's some type of harmful process being used.

I think maybe people don't realize just how ingrained plastic is. It's not some evil vegan villain wearing head-to-toe pleather that is upholding the plastic industry. Take a look around the room and identify everything you see that is plastic. Then think about all the plastic you don't see. And is it really only vegans buying from shein, temu, forever 21, etc? For some people, that's all they can afford, but for so many other people that isn't the case. Is it really so hard to acknowledge that it's literally an exploitative, capitalistic world that has done all of this and NOT vegans? Is it so hard to acknowledge that we all take part in these harmful practices in some way because they've been so interwoven into our society that there's no way to avoid it? What is so difficult to understand about any of that? At this point, I'm half-convinced some billionaires got together and brainstormed on "Who can we blame" and then collectively decided on vegans, and unfortunately some people actually took the bait.

Also, these arguments constantly erase poor people unless it's framed in the context of the vegan diet not being affordable to everyone. Organic, sustainable, fair-trade etc etc products are not cheap. It's not only vegan products that can be non-affordable.

This whole moral superiority (and also flat-out cruelty to each other) can be on BOTH sides and it's really frustrating that the one side won't admit it. Eating meat doesn't automatically make you a saint and non-complicit in harmful practices in the same way being a vegan doesn't either.

It's just...people. People are the worst. The only way to save the planet is for us to literally go extinct.

Why is there a vanilla flavor of basically any non-dairy milk but actual cow's milk doesn't come in vanilla?

I mean, I always on team 'more milk flavors' in general but man, I would drink the hell out of vanilla cow's milk. Fortunately, vanilla oat milk is also pretty good.

(I'm aware that I could...just add vanilla extract to my milk. It Would Not Be the Same.)

i was throwing out a pack of emmental slices that expired 2 days ago when my dad asked what I was doing because, he says with complete confidence, "cheese doesn't expire"

i might be in spain without the s but it was worth it

[tetrakarn]

spent so long looking for a non-dairy coffee creamer that tastes good, isn't overly sugary, AND delivers a satisfying vanilla flavor and i can't believe i finally found one after all this time

Looking to transition into a more vegan diet & lifestyle! As with my last inquiry into vegan alternatives for another type of dairy product, I wanted to poll the audience of a place near & dear to & also on fire in the background of my heart. Thanks 👍���🔥

i think most of the white ppl feeling like they have no culture stuff stems from a lack of connection to their communites. if you go nowhere and talk to no one then yea youre not really participating in the culture of your area. eat produce grown by ppl in your area go to county fairs check out the annual things in your area, thats your culture. like to give an overly simple answer if you live in america then americana is pretty likely to be part of your culture

On the other hand, for me, as someone from a culturally Hindu background, fish is absolutely spriritually meat for me—that's actually probably one of the things I find weirdest about some Western approaches to vegetarianism I've seen—like what do you mean when you say you don't eat meat but you are eating seafood/fish/shrimp?*

And every time I'm explaining my dietary restrictions to a non-Desi person in the US, I have to go out of my way to remember to specify. it end up making my dietary restrictions sound super long and complicated even when my approach is actually really common and usual in India

* not that I would police/judge other people's diets, I just personally find that aspect of the culture to be really unintuitive/confusing
