Vegan Event

[nailit]

Passed through my town today and came upon a vegan 'event'.
Stopped by to have a chat. People that I spoke to came across as nothing like the vegans that ABers would have us believe.
The few that I spoke to (while i was licking my ice-cream) didnt bat an eyelid when I told them that I used to work on a farm and I know the cruelity that goes on.
Simply wished to promote and encorouge an alternative diet/lifestyle.
Had an interesting conversation about various things and left with a couple of booklets of very intersting reciepies.
Nothing like the 9iss takes that I read about on here.

So what don't you like about AB vegans?

[Mamyalynne]

Most of the vegans I know (not many to be fair) are not shouty or preachy, just ordinary people.

[Neveracrossword]

The vegans I know are just people - with the same faults and attributes as the rest of us. One or two are maybe a bit over-zealous, but that happens in any sphere of interests/beliefs.

I am on a diet and eat very little meat, oily fish, but mainly fruit and veg.
Hmmm! I wonder if that's offensive?

The Vegetarian Diet has much to recommend it....healthwise.
I've met many a delightful Vegetarian but fewer delightful Vegans.

[ummmm]

Some of the vegans on here are preachy.

[Neveracrossword]

I suppose the 'preachy' ones are always glad of a soapbox, so AB gives them a platform. In the real world, people (vegans included) just get on with living.

Anyhoo, will Nailit have another Damascene conversion to add to his collection?
Find out in next weeks episode of......

No such thing as "too many sprouts".
