Turkey bacon is made from turkeys, so isn't vegan bacon made from vegans?

I'm happy to share some recipes with you, caveman!

Thanks, but I'll stick with my paleo diet of raw Beluga whale!

Tom

seriously, can you cook or do you rely on pre made food, eating out or your boyfriend?

Well, I did let my daughter bone the quails last night (after I showed her how) before I stuffed them with foie-gras pate, and also had her make the parmesan/cream sauce for the pasta, so nothing vegan there.

She also made a vegan salad (rocket and tomato)!

In short, I've started to delegate in my old age (plus, she's studying to be a cook, so the extra instruction and practice is useful)

One of my Facebook friends in Trieste is a butcher, so I can order what I want and it's ready when I arrive!

In 1989 we were told we'd all be dead by now.

U.N. Predicts Disaster if Global Warming Not Checked

you seem set in your ways. you should always try something new! scare yourself and lift yourself out of your comfort zone! Please pm me and I am happy to share some vegan pasta sauces (I can see you're an americano swiss)

it is a disaster already, Loz1983. the sea is rising from global warming, more people live in deltas and by the sea in ever increasing populations! a major storm and flood will one day wipe out many. can you not see that?

I did.

First time with Korean meat balls last week.
They're the dogs bollocks...!

No.

The thing I like about most vegans is their balanced views and tendency to never ever preach...


But why don't you start your own thread instead of hijacking this one?

So vegan eh? tell me about it

this is rather rude. global warming also comes from excessive meat and dairy consumption so its relevant.

would eating a vegan be acceptable to other vegans?

They would no longer be classified as vegan but rather a humanitarian.

To be fair to vegans, it is a fact that dairy production and cattle for beef is one of the largest global polluters. I think less is the key. Tom is well aware of how bad for the environment beef and dairy is, but it won’t stop him eating cheese or steak, and neither will I as long as I can help it, I just choose better quality less often.

And calling people who don't agree to your extreme dietary choice "caveman" is not?


Sure. But maybe there is something between excessive consumption and your equally extreme choice of life style?


We had a bunch of people who came on here with Vegan in their user name who after a few days got banned because they are frankly too annoying even for our low standards around here... so don't be one of them.

how empty must a persons life be when the most interesting thing about them is what they don't eat, and they have to tell everyone about it??

how can I change my username to happynoteatingmushrooms??

Nobody is arguing that beef and dairy production has a climate impact. But this thread was about plastic. Specifically the microplastic that pollutes the ocean.


As long as vegetables are packed in as much plastic as the meat can we agree that the whole vegan topic can go to another thread. Because we are not talking about carbon emissions or footprint in general. If we did would I rather raise the point that Despacito has produced about as much carbon dioxide as 100.000 taxis https://www.schroders.com/en/be/prof...al-revolution/

Well, at least that would help solve the over-population problem!
