I know a vegan girl and she lives off of spice and soda.
like the drug or curry kind
😁 The Dune ones.

wait dorito is vegan? are you sure? a lot of spice mixes (i’m looking at you fritolay) use chicken bouillon in their “barbecue” mixes because they suck
I’m sure chickens give up bouillon willingly.
Famously everything other then cheese and onion is vegan, including Smokey Bacon somehow.
Mostly dairy products which make it non-vegan. Certainly not chicken bouillon
Most are not, but a handful of certain flavors are
So, let me get this straight. It’s less about your dietary regime and more about getting up off your ass and getting out and burning off the calories you consume?
You need to do both, but you can’t outrun your fork
You can’t outrun the fork as they say, but otherwise it doesn’t have anything to do with veganism? I mean losing weight.
In theory no, but in practice it does force you to put more thought into what you eat
Okay that makes sense.
you can’t outrun your fork
Amen to that!
Vegans eat a LOT of beans to be healthy.
Hey, vegan here! Idk, I guess I do? I eat a lot of tofu which is soy, so if you count that then YEAH. But tofu is so easy to make into what you want it to be that it rarely feels like the same thing, you know? I eat a lot MORE beans then before, but I never stopped to think about it…
The only way I’d be able to tell is if someone watched my diet and went “eating enough beans, my guy?” Lol
That’s only a downside for the coworkers
Your body adapts. It’s mainly down to your gut microbiome being able to handle it.
I’m a helpless cheese/dairy addict, trying to cut off as much meat as possible. Unfortunately, a few years ago my body had decided not to deal with that anymore, and I became slightly lactose intolerant. Now, I can either go vegan and end up eating shittons of legumes, or I can keep eating cheese (my workplace provides free food, but basically everything has cheese in it). I’m trying my best to keep them alive, but it’s not easy.
Free cheese at work? Do you work in heaven? Or is it just like shitty snacks with “”“cheese”“”?
The closest I’ve seen to cheese was a cartoon of milk forgotten forever in an unused conference room.
Haha, yeah, meals containing cheese. Including (rather great) toasties.
I love the impossible burgers!
Yeah. But apparently OOP is mocking people who eat ten at a time.
I get that. I just wanted to say I love them.
I was worried for a second that I had missed blocking a vegan community…
why block vegans?
It usually bring stupid flamewars?
Because the ones who usually post and respond are not interested in polite, casual discourse. I block crossfit communities for the same reasons.
And it’s almost never the vegans; it’s the community. I block the community instead of the people. Often they’re just fine on subjects that aren’t veganism.
It’s scary when I see posts that make me rethink my values :(
It’s not a hate crime to block things you have no interest in.
First thing I did on here was block all the trans and gay stuff. Then the tankies and the vegans. And now all the AI shit, although that’s mostly not got a home here.
Personally I don’t care much for self righteous sermons.
So much BDS.
I thought that was a single serving sized hummus!?
this feels like a strawman. I dont think anyone is going vegan to lose weight. 99% of people you see talk about it do it for ethical reasons.
Bill Clinton did it to, though I think his doctor basically said he was dead if he didn’t.
i was in a “new vegan converts” fb group and a number of people stated they went vegan for vague “health benefits” and/or weight loss, they certainly exist
There’s often a confusion between people who go “whole-food plant-based” for personal health reasons, and people who go vegan which is about animal’s rights. Of course a person can want both too.
In any case, people who adopt more plant-centric diets do often see a reduction is bodyweight, but it’s not guaranteed. As the pic up top shows, it can still be very easy to have an unhealthy lifestyle even if it is plant-based.
The vegan I knew in college actually warned people about weight gain while she was pushing her veganism on us. “Its hard not to replace everything with carbs” was basically her spiel.
There’s nothing wrong with carbs. Most of what I eat is carbs.
I did lose 10kg in 4 months when I cut a heavy portion of meat from my diet but that was because I was basically eating once a day and when I was still hungry in the evening I had rice with corn afterwards. I was not broke but cheap and keeping my fridge empty made it less likely to take something out of nothing.
It was a major motivation for me at the time, but mostly in the sense of forcing me to radically change my diet
Yeah but I did it for ethical reasons and ended up gaining weight very quickly lol
My sisters are actually carbitarian. Very few vegetables for people who have been vegetarian for decades
i get similar judgement from my family. they don’t see the toilet after i eat uncooked vegetables nor do they get to feel the process of making that disaster. hence why i don’t judge people their dietary choices.
impossible burger
I’d rather kick a dog to death than eat one of these monstrosities. A creamy center is the sort of debasement that no one deserves to experience in their burger. I understand that not everyone shares my opinion, and I can accept that they are so fundamentally wrong that they should not be considered human. It is not just acceptable, it is a moral imperative to excise these subhumans from the our cities.
Mushroom, red bean, and grain burgers are the right choice.
I’m not sure how you cooked your impossible burger, but personally I can’t tell the difference between those or an animal beef burger. It’s so good (IMO, obviously you feel different) that I’m puzzled why so many people say they’re waiting for lab grown meat, when we already have such an incredible, affordable plant based alternative available in most stores right now.
the impossible burger fucks up my gut. i think it’s the fiber in it. that’s why i’m waiting for lab grown, personally.
Sounds like you need to eat more fiber if your gut treats any amount of fiber as some kind of foreign invasion
thank you doctor…? (what is your name and license number anyway) for your diagnosis since you’re out here practicing medicine unlicensed i’d like to know who to send the bill to when i follow your advice and end up in the hospital
If you think eating fiber is going to hospitalize you, you desperately need tk go to the hospital. Like, drop everything and straight to the emergency room.
Their just a nerd looking to impress the Internet.
As a meat eater, who loves that shit and only had reduced for environmental and health reasons, it’s pretty close. If you want to be picky you could probably pick it out if you are doing just a plain burger but they’ll do in a pinch.
Just grilled beside the meat burgers at like 650ish. I’d never choose to eat it again, personally. Not just because of the texture, but the salt. I can’t use my salted burger spice mixes on a patty so pre-laden with salt. I usually make mushroom burgers instead. Certainly better for my blood pressure
You sound like a blast at a party.
I sound like someone who enjoys writing hyperbole.
But to continue the bit a bit more, you sound like someone who serves subpar food near cherished pets.
You sound like a ln argumentive nerd who wears a big Fedora.
You nailed my current distro like an unattended canine in front of a cheap restaurant!
It’s clearly because of the weed. Munchies be too powerful to quell.
