    I would be a vegan but I just don’t have the time or willpower.

    I mean, the amount of time you have to spend bitching about other’s dietary choices is exhausting.

      I’ve considered being like A half vegan Like a vegan but I’ll occasionally splurge at like events and restaurants

      It’s not really considered as admirable tho and is just frowned upon by both vegans and non vegans

        I’m proud of you. You’re doing something good even if you slip up. Me, I have decided to not go meat free.

        What if you just did it without getting any credit. You don’t need others approval to make a positive change

        You’ll find outspoken people on both sides, but despite their words the world is not black and white. Do what you can, do what you feel is best. Any harm reduction is harm reduction and an all or nothing mentality isn’t helping anyone anywhere.

      I find vegan cooking to be easier, but I’m not a vegan and will eat meat at restaurants or if someone else cooks, or at least cuts the meat which is a total pain in the ass and leaves packaging that makes the garbage stink like nothing else.

      The bitching is universal though. I used to take my dad’s home cooked food to school and one that got the most questions was the spicy tofu and pork. I could call it literally ‘tofu and pork’ and people would ask if im vegan and if that’s why I’m not muscular at all etc.
