I love the look on some vegans faces when it‘s explained to them that eating meat in a managed way guarantees the survival of the farmed species and if they got their wish and people stopped eating meat there’d be no animals to care about.

Vegan - the village idiot who couldn’t hunt or fish

They need their f'ing heads looking at, the lot of them.

When I worked in the kitchen I asked “what are the vegans having for tea?” I was told “shepherd’s pie” “can’t have it as it is lamb” “no it’s vegan shepherd’s pie” “WTF?” “sub the lamb with tvp” “then that’s tvp pie, not shepherd’s pie”

Not really, because that would imply the shepherd’s pie contained mince shepherd.

This was a Prison so that is a distinct posibility

I love women who tell me they are vegans and are wearing leather shoes and carrying leather handbags, where do they think leather comes from

I called someone out on something like that a while back and she claimed it didn’t count as leather is a by product. Utter fool and a hypocrite.

Think there is a difference between a vegetarian and strict vegan (i know both)

Either way they set the limits on what they eat, wear, handle to suit themselves so its mostly bull anyway.

The vegan I know is as fit as a butchers dog (not an analogy he likes) the point is without the protein from meat you carry the risk of health issues and blood disorders but he balances his diet to make sure he gets all the things any human needs but without eating any animal products (clever lad)

The vegie eats grass or summat along with a nibble of chicken and the odd egg but without having the brain to work it out properly is the most unhealthy thing you will see still walking around, the whole thick as 2 short planks family are the same and there are 3 generations of the idiots now

The best one we had at the prison was a guy who (to try to f#ck us up) decided he was a fruitarian, he complained that the apples had been washed & refused to eat them, we did a bit of research & discovered that fruitarians only eat fruit that has fallen from the tree, we pointed out that this would be impossible he actually said “well I suggest you go find me some fresh fallen fruit” he was told “ok but as it’s the wrong time of year you’ll have to starve for a couple of months” too stupid for words

Vegetablists are weird. They eat eggs and dairy but not meat or associated products; my mum’s a vegetablist and I was amazed one day when she told me she had to turn down a strawberry gateaux because it had gelatin in it. They do wear and use leather and animal by products though.

A proper vegan eats plant only based diet and neither consumes, wears or uses any animal by products. It can’t be easy; imagine trying to order a high end car with no leather!

Your mate is clearly dialled in. Consuming protein on a vegan diet isn’t difficult but it gets interesting if following a half serious fitness regime. I’m only aware of two plant based sources of protein that are complete i.e. contains all nine essential amino acids, and that’s quinoa and hemp (there may be others; I haven’t bothered looking). The diet then gets a bit boring so it involves finding alternative protein sources which, when mixed, provide a complete protein between them. One favourite source of protein for vegans and vegetablists alike is soy (tofu and that Quorn shite are soy). However, if you’re a man you want to avoid soy like bubonic plague as it both raises oestrogen and lowers testosterone.

Thinking about it for like one nanosecond, it’s a lot less hassle to stick to meat, all of which are complete proteins and provide what the human body needs.

If they don’t use any animal byproducts, does that mean they walk everywhere rather than use Dino-piss in a car engine?

Such is the hypocrisy of some vegans and the ignorant stupidity of others.

If you really want to have fun with a militant vegan that drives an electric car, ask them how the electricity is generated to provide the charge for their car. It ain't all nuclear yet

Knew of a couple who were like this and they had a child who looked absolutely skeletal. Probably never had a proper meal.

And therein lies the problem with these idiots. The human body, especially infants, needs animal protein to develop and grow. I was in a pub in Hampshire about 25 years ago and this family came in, small Bill Oddie lookalike man, earthen hippy wife and two little daughters. The parents didn't exactly look the picture of health but the kids looked like they'd just been released from Auschwitz. At the bar, the father asked for the vegetarian menu. Assuming those kids are still alive, I would imagine they're under-developed in all areas.

If you want to be a vegan or vegetablist, I'm ok with that, but it should not be forced on others, even their own kids. I girl I sometimes walk my dog with is a vegan and she has three kids (16, 13 and 11); one is normal, one is a vegetablist and the other is a vegan, all by their own choices.

I sometimes have to go vegan when eating in places of very limited choice, such as planes, and I don't know how people can do it because it is not in the least bit enjoyable. I never travel without a bag of protein and a slack handful of protein bars, just in case. I'm fed up of trolley dollies telling me I could've pre-ordered my in flight meal on line; bit difficult when jumping on a plane with only a few hours notice.

We have two or three ‘non-meat’ main courses a week, not out of particular choice but because we enjoy them.
