alanmarklewis Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Are there any other herbivores out there? If so, how long have you been vegan and what's your go to meal? How do you know if someone is vegan? Don't worry, I've already told you ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The health benefits are pretty well established now. Butternut squash biriani is one of my faves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Surprised it’s taken this long for a vegan to mention they are vegan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I just use regular mushrooms rather than the posh ones. Great recipe. Don't miss the meat at all. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/butternut-biryani-cucumber-raita/amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I love quorn sausages, Burgers and mince. Replaced the usual meat ones with them and won’t go back. A breakfast of quorn sausage, mushroom and scrambled egg (ok not vegan) on sour dough bread is delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I like a good Big Daddy steak from a vegan reared cow. Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyMac5 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I'm never surprised by the anti-vegan or anti-vegetarian comments, but I can never quite work out what it is most of them are worried about. Maybe they think vegans will take away their right to eat meat? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Normanton Lad Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I've been a vegetarian for most of my life and I tried to go vegan for about 3 or 4 months recently - after watching a Youtube video about the benefits of veganism - but it didn't have a good effect on my digestion. I was taking all the extra supplements but my stomach had become too used to yogurts and milk. Perhaps it might have worked if I was younger. I've now gone back to my frozen yogurts and milk in my coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I've cut down significantly on red meats recently, but I find the idea of going full veggie / vegan quite intimidating to be honest. I've tried a veggie diet but I think it needs to be carefully planned as within a couple of weeks of starting it, my energy levels plummeted. Far from feeling healthier, I felt awful. Can anyone recommend a cook book that would help with planning a balanced meat free diet? I'm over 6 foot but I'm now tipping the scales at over 16 stone which is a stone over my typical weight. I can't see where it's gone on but I do feel it so I think a change is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my world was opened to a wider range of meals I think I would be tempted to eat more than I need. I've been around people who eat more or less the same thing every day and they seemed healthy enough. For them food was not a bit thing. It was fuel and they had enough of it to keep them going. I like plain food myself. My favourite meal is porridge so perhaps I am not in a position to give anyone advice on cuisine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramslad1992 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I’m all for people being vegan/vegetarian... if you want to eat rabbit food all day that’s fine but what the hell is with all the ‘Meat free meat balls’? Meat free chicken style pieces... the absolute worst is fishless fish fingers. What on Earth goes into something to give it the look, taste and smell of fish that isn’t fish?!
