37. Most of the vegan stuff requires light preparation.

Same for the stuff on either side that's left. Heat and serve.

It's not like we have to worry about all kinds of bacterial from the soybeans' intestinal tracts.

To some extent it's custom. You buy what you're used to.

To some extent it's price. Most of the vegan stuff I've seen is more expensive.

To some extent it's flavor. I like some things like black bean burgers. But I eat them (a) when I want them and not beef burgers or turkey burgers and (b) when I seriously distrust the meat option.

Not a vegan, but I'm calling bullshit on this anti-vegan meme SecularMotion Sep 2017 #8

So how would that change anything? Your bullshit claim is meaningless. Thor_MN Sep 2017 #13

The meme implies that even people desperate for food(hurricaine/flood survivors) don't want vegan SecularMotion Sep 2017 #14

Yes, they don't want vegan. Period. End of Story. Thor_MN Sep 2017 #15

I guess we just have different opinions SecularMotion Sep 2017 #18

I'm making no claim about vegans, I'm pointing out that you are making no sense. Thor_MN Sep 2017 #22
