i dont believe self-seggregation is very helpful.

Coming back to this super late

No thanks. I’ll stick to daily, affordable meat.

Looks more like a meat eater when they haven’t been able to make that joke in 15 minutes... After all, the only people who talk about veganism more than vegans are meat eaters...

Still struggling to find a decent milk alternative for coffee/tea. Currently on hemp seed milk, which isn’t cutting it (too watery), next stop Oatly Barista, I think Rude Health do a Barista as well, although they’re both pretty pricey. Any suggestions most welcome.

Black coffee

Or why not get real milk from these guys? http://www.hookandson.co.uk/TheCows/index.html Local, organic, and the cows are well looked after.

It’s nice they give the heffer a ‘holiday’ before artificially inseminating them by shoving a hand up their backside...

If you’re after “real” milk why not try dog, cat or rhino?

Oat should be alright. Also, as my small brain understands it, it's by far the most sustainable option

Thanks for the suggestion but I don't drink milk.

With coffee I find most nut based milks are lovely. Oat and almond usually. Not the case with tea however but i've developed a taste for having it black. I've heard rice milk works ok? Has anyone tried it in tea?

You're right, according to this https://www.theguardian.com/environ...t-milk-should-i-drink-almond-killing-bees-aoe

Sounds like that hit a vegan nerve

The only ‘nerve’ you hit is the frustration that I don’t get a £ each time a meat makes thinks they’re clever for making that “joke”. I’d be a rich man, especially if I also got a £ for every time a meat said “but bacon tho...” or I get asked where I get my protein from

My entire life revolved around food. Going somewhere last minute? Gotta bring vegan snacks. Going out with friends for dinner? Have to play the "can I eat this?" game. Every day was deciding what to eat or cook or buy. I met a meat eater, slowly went from vegan to vegetarian to meat eater. I don't regret it, I have significantly more free time now.

I think the vegan way is the right way but I’m on the slow road there, perhaps I’ll arrive by the next decade.

I’ve long since knocked red meat (mammals) on the head and hope to quit all other land based animals this year or next.

The toughies will be cheese, milk (although I’m warming to oat milk in drinks etc) but also fishy fish fish. I had sardines tonight, packed with wonderful Omega 3. It’s going to take a long time for me to give up my fishy little treats!

In the words of Cobain:

“Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
But it's okay to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings.”
