Vegans probably hate food. I was 100% vegetarian all of January.

its a trash diet
you can eat meat and be a Buddhist
also even the ones who don't still eat animal products like milk and cheese

you're just aiding the animals reincarnation

why not the McChicken though?
to me that's a pretty good fast food sandwich :^)

people who eat McDonalds hate food tho

I never went longer than a weekend without eating some kind of animal flesh so I have no fucking clue of the life of a Vegan.

With that said if I were forced to adopt a Vegan lifestyle I'd definitely be living off Coconut Milk and Cream. Thai Curry is delicious, good Vegan friendly recipe here, skip that dumb Kale Meme though that shit will never taste good and I read it's got a scary amount of copper in it (which causes Alzheimer's) so why eat it right?

lads......

Alright serious advice. Look into indian recipes, you need to learn how to use spices and stuff but India has always had tons of vegetarians/unintentional vegans so they know how to make shit taste good.

Chana masala and bombay aloo were my go to at this Indian restaurant I loved that halfway through went full vegetarian.

Vegans have little reason to not be pescetarian, fish feel nothing, just eat them and get your protein.

Trust me, fish sticks are delicious, especially if made with a lemon flavoring.

It's the best.

Why does this shit keep getting repeated?

The overwhelming majority of Indian food relies heavily on dairy products. That's literally why cows are sacred in the Hindu religion--because they provide sustenance in the form of dairy products. Nearly every dish in India starts with ghee (clarified butter).

Buddhism may have started in India, but:
a) it's a very very small % of the population
and
b) Buddhists can still eat meat, they simply can't kill the animal themselves, or eat meat that was specifically slaughtered for them. But if the meat was slaughtered for someone else and there happens to be leftovers? Game on. Plus, the Buddhist prohibition against eating meat only extends to land animals. Seafood (fish, shellfish) are not considered "meat".

>sour cream

You can make decent sour cream from coconut milk though.

What veganism lacks is a good palette of easily available cheap processed intermediate ingredients (and ready meals). You have to spend a ton of time and consideration on prep, pay through the fucking nose or eat boring shit.

retard.

>>8556897
That's still vegetarian, so they're not entirely wrong. Eggs, dairy and honey are allowed.

>>8556921
>cheap processed intermediate ingredients

Why would anyone ever want that? Processed foods are to be avoided, not embraced.

>>8556932

No, I used it intentionally and correctly in that context. The word palette can serve as an idiom for a selection of components which can be composed.

>>8556937

I disagree. All dairy products are processed, all oil is processed, all flour is processed etc etc.

Creating a meal only from stuff as picked from the land leads to either requiring huge amount of prep time or boring meals.

Allowing other people to make intermediates for you, frees up your time and allows you to make more interesting food with less effort.

>>8556897
butter is easily substituted with vegetable oils, they still have tons of vegetarian stuff

You're thinking about Theravada buddhism, in Mahayana they are usually strict vegetarians.

Most sea animals are just swimming vegetables but that is a personal view thing and up to individuals to decide

i grew up in SEA so the buddhists I know are mostly chinese
