The VEGAN thread

[skinnypotato]

it's ridiculous, eating meat and drinking milk is amazing, I can't get it.

Not at all but I have been implementing a veggie day once a week with my parents. I once read about a study that showed eating veggie even 1 day per week has a serious positive effect on the environment which I think is important.

 

However I don't get the no eggs and no milk part. Cows need to be milked and chickens need to lay eggs, consuming those eatables doesn't harm any of the animals...so why that would be a problem to anyone is beyond me.

1. it's awful for the environment
2. once they stop producing eggs or milk, those same chickens and cows are then exploited for other purposes (meat, etc.)
3. cows don't magically produce milk out of nowhere - they need to be repeatedly impregnated

If you eat eggs or milk you're still harming the environment and supporting that same awful industry with your money.

But if you have chickens of your own and eat those eggs without buying them in store, how could that be bad? I mean chickens HAVE to lay eggs right? And if it's straight from the garden onto your plate then it shouldn't be harmful to the environment?

So yeah eggs doesn't seem a good reason to cut IF you have your own chickens OR of you get them straight from the farmer without, again, a big mass producer of eggs.

In my country a LOT of bio farmers sell their chickens eggs straight to the customer with no big factory or store involved. Their chickens also have the best lives they could have.

 

I give you the milk part tho, didn't think about that.

This video explains the POV of vegans better than I ever could, but it's kind of a gray area (also, trigger warning for animal abuse, I guess):

Some vegans are willing to make the exception when it comes to rescued backyard hens (@0:18):

Who’s going vegan or doing veganuary this year? 

 

 

I can’t believe my veganism will turn 7 this year

I am also vegan. I have celiac, so I cannot have gluten either. I also eat mostly organic 😅

I like to exercise everyday, so getting a proper amount of iron is important to me. I like these plant protein elixir drinks by Rebbl. The mcts provide a good amount of natural energy as well. 

Made Good is an Awesome brand! They make organic gluten free vegan granola.

i became vegan because I Believe that each life deserves to he lived.

if an animal must be sacrificed, they should at least have a life outside of the confinements of a cage, First. Being caged and sentenced to slaughter is punishment. They deserve Better Treatment, and Respect. 

Their Lives Are Important, And their hearts beat in their chests, just like a human’s.

EveryOne Deserves To Enjoy Life 🙏💖

Every single vegan Ive known in my life now eats everything. Except for one and I would say he has anger issues. So what Justin said sort of makes sense I guess.

Vegan, Celiac, Mostly Organic

Would I still be vegan if I'd take piece of you and suck your nipples?
