Anyone had the del taco impossible taco yet? pretty sure they use the beyond meat.
I'm pretty stoked Qdoba is going to run with Impossible as a meat substitute.
Whoa, didn't know about Qdoba. There's one within walking distance from me.

How are the Beyond meat crumbles? I heard they're not as good as the actual burger.

Everybody should try mushrooms or something.
Nothing wrong with that soy-based stuff in moderation (I definitely partake), but you don't wanna end up like Karl from Earth Crisis.
Dude spent his whole life for the cause and he's like 300 pounds now.

As a new shareholder of Beyond Meat, eat it up folks :) The crumbles have been around for a while and aren't the same as the burgers. Buy the burgers and mash em up for the best crumbles experience. I too bought 1 share

Not like there's been tons of mushroom news lately.

What’s up weirdos I’m going to Reykjavik and Paris in July and need to know the good spots for vegan food. Apparently Paris has a lot of places but Iceland is a crapshoot so if anyone has any suggestions that would rule. The two best vegan spots in Reykjavik (in my apinion) are Glo and Kafe Vinyl. They both have really good selections and are located in downtown Reykjavik. There’s also a rad Indian food place in downtown called Hradlestin. Prices are kind of high, but that’s just kind of how it is there for everything, so it’s not out of the norm. The grocery stores all have a decent selection of vegan stuff, but I think Netto has the most variety (and slightly higher prices than places like Bonus).

People who say you cannot respect other cultures while also acknowledging that their traditions of murdering animals are bullshit are so close minded.
Edit: Probably should have quoted spsp for context lol

Sorry I deleted but here's the repost. Felt like maybe it was a tired point of discussion for a bunch of vegans. And yeah, I guess you could just easily say you have 30+ food allergies.

The inverse is like oh if you were on an island with a cow, would you eat it? Uh, whole scenario is kind of dumb.
People have exceptions and all sorts of reasons for eating meat/dairy. Cool. I don't have a problem with that. Wolfing down bacon burgers out of spite while knowing how unethical it is does bother me. No ethical consumption under capitalism, I know, but it's not an excuse to be a shithead.

Yeah same here. Don't care at all until someone starts being a dick about it.
"On an island with a cow"... yes, a likely scenario

I just always feel on the defensive because it's always "I'm just not so sure 'all that tofu' is so good for you." Coming from someone who eats meat and dairy every single day, and I know for a fact that shit ain't good for you. But I don't go around talking about that every time someone eats. Every vegan I know, doesn't really talk about it with non-vegans until asked. I feel like being the unicorn annoying vegan I hear so much about just to make it a reality.

When I was much younger I also had a jerk mentality about this stuff. Then I had an epiphany and never looked back. So I always treat people like this as if they just haven't gotten there yet. Like instead of getting defensive, just being like "Okay, do you. Don't pretend you're ready for something you're not." I feel it leaves them with a slight sense of thinking maybe they'll make the jump one day. While also being dismissive enough to convey that I don't give a fuck what they think.

Yeah ultimately these critics probably mean well. There's a lot of bullshit out there everyone is susceptible to so I never blame any specific individual or anything like that. It's just one of those topics with a lot of bullshit out there, and so many people who aren't even vegan need to have an apinion.
I like your take on it. I read once on the Self Defense Family tumblr, “Look, you’re a compassionate individual. And being vegan is a compassionate way to live. I think on a long enough timeline, you’re gonna wanna explore it. Not because anyone told you to, but because it’s the way you lean naturally.”
But honestly, I don't know how many people really give a shit and just want to argue some shit they read on a headline or a talking head youtube video. I'm just complaining at this point though.

Yeah when people get mad or defensive about any progressive issues, my main understanding is that the world is just moving too fast for them.
I also struggle with things like technology or even keeping up with what's acceptable speak as it's ever-changing, but I believe life is a quest for knowledge and if you are vehemently against changes in certain sentiments that really don't affect you, you're just a drag on civilization.
Veganism isn't for everybody and that's fucking fine. But don't act like I'm holding you back from something that's clearly encouraged by society at large. We're clearly living in a non-veg world.
Tl;dr: let me counteract your perceived complaints with grandiose pontifications

I'm a trash person and will gladly eat vegan fast food. Can't wait for the purity pissing competitions...
This vegan girl I know was pissed some Tinder date ordered fish on their date and dropped him. Not even kidding, she identifies as vegan and ate free ice cream and pizza at an event earlier that day.
My girlfriend eats dairy and meat if it's free and gonna go to waste. I couldn't care less.

Disney seems to be all in with impossible now. Was there a few months ago and had a sausage and a burger at two different places. Sausage was scary good.
