Yeah, this is such a bizarre position, so detached from the reality of what rice and beans, lentils, chick peas etc. cost.
I enjoy some vegan prepared products like steaks etc. But fried rice with veggies and cashews or tofu (or both of you’re feeling flush) is hardly a bank breaker.
We’re all too broke to be spend 50-100% more on vegan food when we are stuck in a capitalist hellscape.
Eating is a need, eating ethically is a nice idea when rent/mortgage, utilities aren’t taking up 70-80% of people’s paychecks.
I can buy a $1.70 bag of mixed beans, throw it in the instant pot with $4 of veggies, and have enough food for most of a week. What are you on about?
And ironically, THIS is the most bourgeois take. As if being vegan means buying beyond everything at Whole Foods 🙄
I have news for you about what kind of food makes up the bulk of the diet of the vast majority of the global working class
