And I guaran-damntee you that you have not had the pleasure of being able to eat lots of the vegan food that I get to eat.

Vegan pizza and vegan ice cream exists. You can even buy it in the store (or make it yourself-LOTS of incredible recipes).

I am not trying to make you or anyone else a vegan. When someone trashes ALL vegans though as you have done, I would expect to see that shit on right wing sites. Not here.

Shame really.
