Vegans, i just dont get it?

[B.A. Baracus]

Vegetarians, i get it. dont kill the cow just so i can eat, they'll happily sit there eating their toast and celery.

But Vegans, come on. They wont eat a egg, drink milk or anything thats came in any way from a animal. I'm pretty sure, in well kept conditions a chicken is personally ok with laying a egg just as a cow is fine with sharing his milky goodness, I mean if they could talk they would say 'yeah have my milk and have his eggs' so whats the problem?

Just drink the milk and stop using your dodgy Soya milk.

edit-excuse the grammar, its late i'm tired.

Yeah, some of them i think are quite militant in their beliefs that animals should not be placed into any slave type Planet of the Apes situation at all, not even if they volunteer. If some folk believe that, then fair enough, it might seem a bit daft, as you say, it seems like nature intended the items for consumption, i don't think it is a coincidence that unfertisiled eggs are not just good for throwing against your enemy's windows.

but there are also health benefits to avoiding dairy products, they can make your cholestral go up for one thing, not sure what else.

 

[Anubis]

But they also make your bones stronger. Everything is bad for you, and everything is good for you. So you may as well eat some hot dogs.

 

[JAK®]

I will never understood limiting your diet in such a broad way that you will cut out entire food groups.

Having said that in today's world it is perfectly possible to eat the kinds of food you want and still be healthy.

 

[knowsbleed]

Soy milk is actually pretty good.


Why are you imposing your lifestyle upon others?

 

[Timstuff]

At least we omnivores do the humane thing and kill our animals before we eat them. Vegans eat their ALIVE! Except for tofu, but I'm pretty sure that's classified as some kind of synthetic rubber product and therefore doesn't count as food.

Actually, that sounds like it's a bull that you're getting that "milky goodness" from.

 

[Manic]

lol, I just caught that too. All cows are female, BA. The males are bulls/steer/oxen.

 

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

LOL! This thread made me laugh! A LOT!! You can eat healthy without cutting out entire food groups. To each his own I guess, but as for me, I'm gonna continue to eat the heck outta meat and cheese and drink all kinds of "milky goodness!"

They just want attention.

 

[chaseter]

We have canines and flat teeth for grinding plant matter. We were designed to eat meat and plant matter. Our bodies were not designed to eat only plant matter

 

[Hotwire]

No, they want Vegan Super Powers.

Yeah... human bodies weren't designed for buttsex either... butt...

 

[Anubis]

Yeah, but eating veggies and tofo is nowhere near as fun as buttsex.

 

[knowsbleed]

WTF is tofo?


If eating veggies and tofu is a prerequisite for some fun buttsex, why not?

 

[The Question]

Our teeth aren't the only indicator. While, yes, our teeth are meant for an omnivorous diet, we actually have a much easier time digesting vegitable proteins than animal proteins. Our teeth came from a time when we didn't have the luxury of being picky.

As for the question of veganism itself... while, yes, animals aren't killed to harvest milk and eggs, because of modern factor farming they are usually kept in what many vegans feel is inhuman, torture like conditions. Many vegans would make exceptions for free range animal products were they easier to find and less expensive.

 

[knowsbleed]

inhuman?

well... they're kinda not humans.

 

[The Question]

Inhuman, in the sense that the people running the factories are not behaving the way human beings should.

It's a prerequisite for buttsex with severe injuries actually. WHich is okay if you're into that sorta thing.

That means no cheese, ice cream, yogurt, egg products like cake and cookies...hell, they can't even have honey. There is no way I could ever be a vegan but if someone wants to do that good for them.

I've actually had some really tasty vegan food before. Falafel, one of my favorite foods, is completely vegan. And I've learned how to cook some very tasty vegan deserts. Vegan banana cream pie is actually pretty brilliant.

 

[Figs]

No, they want Vegan Super Powers.

I don't have a problem with vegans but isn't it a bit unhealthy to skip out on protein?

 

[knowsbleed]

I wonder if vegans are against oral sex.


*ponders*

 

[THE MR. TERRIFIC]

They get protein from other sources.
