Why do vegans have to have pretend food? 🤔

@MushroomFaerie If you're not a vegan then you can't say whose a vegan and whose not if you don't understand and I can tell you don't understand. That's OK to not understand something, just don't pretend like you're an authority on the subject.

@SatanBurger lol calm your farm, its a harmless opinion online. I have many vegetarians in my family and I'm not big on meat either... Its genetic, some people just don't see meat as a food group and other people try to make them eat it everywhere, are rude and aggressive about it like not eating meat or certain types of meat is this terrible crime.
Yes if a person eats a vegan diet they are vegan, though my point is that most vegans do actually like meat and animal products and their veganism is pure choice and many secretly eat it or think about it rather than that being who they actually are.
If your offended by what I said then I would hate to be you... I wasn't being offensive, there are horrible things in this world and my comment certainly wasn't one of them. I'm not offending anyone about how they eat, I'm one of the ones who defend people's right to eat how they please without being harassed. Maybe you could have just asked what I mean or even just kept scrolling like most of us will over something so petty like your ability to turn something into an insult and then make it about you

@MushroomFaerie I wasn't aware I was the only vegan in the world, I think that last bit of yours is a red herring. Back on the actual subject, why would I ask? I hear it a lot from meat eaters when the reason why is right in front of their face, I can only think they do it on purpose to troll.

Most vegans probably liked meat especially if they were meat eaters before but maybe they don't want suffering even if they do like it. So mock meats are a good alternative, though not the healthiest by far. I'm not saying it's a healthy diet, there's far better vegan diets out there. However it also means that not everyone can control what they buy depending on where they live and a few nights a week when we don't have groceries but no other options, mock meats it is.

We're not meat eaters, society doesn't really cater to us and if they do, it's mock meats and not much of anything else like actual whole food meals you can just buy like meat eaters can.

@SatanBurger it wasn't an overly serious comment ...people can eat what they want but most of us here find it strange you need a substitute meat

@MushroomFaerie It's easy this society doesn't cater to vegans and vegans are not perfect, sometimes we need groceries. Fake meats are convenient when we are in-between checks, it's fairly obvious.
