How do you know a meat eater? They will tell you and be pissy about it.

And they'll butt into any conversation with the type of meat they use. "I'm having dinner tonight",
"I ~~use arch~~ eat beef, btw"

I think it's funny that vegans are stereotyped as preachy and annoying when approximately 99% of trucks in my city have a front license plate that says EAT BEEF

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

These queers are just flamboyantly shoving their gayness in my face.

Either that or they'll tell you they "barely eat any meat" or that "they buy local whenever possible, which is more ethical right?".

Found the gatherer.

He obviously didn't try hard enough, everyone knows if you cook vegan recipes with enough skill and passion the meat just appears out of thin air.

[–] felsiq@piefed.zip 14 points 2 weeks ago

Interestingly enough that might still be vegan

[–] romanticremedy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I want to believe the majority of these comments are just trolls

[–] Tilgare@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I bet that the ratio would be depressing to look at. Because some definitely are, but not all. 😭

> Get a friend and a scalpel

> Ask them to take out up to 3/4 of liver out of your body (no more than that!)

> Add it to the recipe as you please

> ???

> Infinite vegan dishes with meat!

Liver ouroboros! Get one of those portholes like a research cow for easy DIY harvests.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 3 points 2 weeks ago

😂 this is so elegantly fucked up

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Its generally frowned upon, but if you can catch a vegan...

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Look, we all know the most ethical meat to eat is that of a billionaire. I’m just not sure what bait to use to catch one.

[–] CameronDev@programming.dev 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Might be ethical, but probably tastes disgusting :(

If all the unethical things were sensorially unpleasant, and all the ethical things as tasty as good chocolate, this would be a world of pure virtue.

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Any time I look for new side dishes instead of searching for sides I search for vegan recepies.

Ideology aside, some of that shit is straight fire.

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 7 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I feel like this was a joke that the second person didn’t get.

[–] schnokobaer@feddit.org 20 points 2 weeks ago

What's the joke?

[–] fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago

It's a review of a dish. Even if it's done ironically it is still overall negative.

[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why not try making a recipe with a protein then? That’s the part I don’t understand.

Vegan recipes are usually really good. I just add meat since I like higher protein meals (not that it's needed).
I follow a disc golfer who has been Vegan all his life. When someone asked about it and how he gets all the nutrients he needed, he said all nutrients come from plants, he's just skipping the middleman.

[–] BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I like that actually. A lot of vegan recipes have stuff I’m allergic to for protein (I can’t eat any legumes), but I could try a vegan recipe and just add meat and make a few replacements since I won’t be needing the lentils or beans or whatever for protein. You’ve given me a good idea.

Bacon .... you can add bacon to any recipe to give it a meat taste

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 weeks ago (5 children)

Fun fact, bacon bits are typically soy unless specified.
