There's no way this chubby fuck is vegan
I reeeaaally wish people would stop drawing a direct line between eating vegan and eating healthy.
Just cause I don’t want to eat animals that doesn’t mean I don’t want to stuff my face with good food.
Most restaurants just throw a salad at you or something.
You can eat nothing but Oreos and be vegan lmao. My dad literally gained weight when he became a vegan.
To be fair, there are lots of unhelthy vegan foods. Just because "veg" is in the name of your dietary preference doesn't mean you can just eat oreos all day
Can confirm Source: don't eat meat, still a fat little gremlin
Same for gluten free diets. Some people think eating gluten free is healthy (it isn't), but cram your face with GF pizza, pasta, cookies and candy and you'll be as fat as anyone else. As for health, my kids are celiac so I frequently peruse the ingredients of these products and even simple GF breads can have dozens of ingredients to give it texture, bubbles, elasticity & taste similar to regular wheat bread.
Actually, I think that's exactly what it means!
TIL Oreos are vegan.
Oreos are vegan.
So are Doritos and Hershey chocolate syrup. Vegan doesn't mean healthy.
Doritos are not vegan. Are you thinking of Fritos?
Sweet chili heat flavour are, or were last time I checked.
Can confirm, and they're better than the regular flavor too
Apparently depending on your brand of vegan, some sugar doesn't make the cut. I don't know the ins and outs I literally just googled it.
A lot of white sugar is made with bone char.
You can make vegan cakes, cookies, fried shit. Vegan doesn't mean healthy
And unhealthy doesn't automatically mean fat, either. It's all about calories in, calories out. You can eat all the junk food you want and still be skinny, so long as you're burning more calories than you're consuming.
vegan isnt a diet
it is, but there are additional definitions as well.
No it isn't. Literally no part of the vegan ethos has to do with diet.
Food? Yes.
Diet? No.
I'm so tired of arguing this with mouthbreathers:
https://www.britannica.com/topic/veganism
veganism, the theory or practice of abstaining from the consumption and use of animal products. While some vegans avoid only animal-derived food, many others also exclude any items that use animals as ingredients or for testing. These prohibited products can range from clothing (e.g., leather) to makeup. Dietary veganism differs from vegetarianism in that vegetarians may choose to consume some animal-derived foods such as milk, eggs, and honey on the grounds that animals do not need to be slaughtered to obtain these products. Veganism is motivated by a variety of reasons, including personal health, animal rights, environmentalism, and ethics. It is generally practiced less as a dietary preference and more as a lifestyle choice and form of activism.

FROM YOUR QUOTE:

.... that's a diet. just like halal is a diet in addition to it's other restrictions.
You make a good point actually.
