I don’t understand why, when they find out you’re vegan, people say “I could never be vegan, I like [insert food here] too much.” Is it supposed to make me think better of you? Because you just couldn’t do it? Lead to a conversation that anyone wants to have? Make me sympathetic? I get that response nearly every time, and I just don’t even.
To non-vegans reading this: Don’t say that. It doesn’t inspire feelings of respect, and it makes you sound stupid.
Wow, looks like somebody took that sentence way out of context. Way to make vegans/vegetarians look even more pretentious than society already thinks we are…

Maybe we could express ourselves more fully if we say it without words. Should we try that?
