we can only be friends if you keep eating the exact same amount of cheese or less, I'll not have my stance be nulled by some renegade.
Fair point. I'm not eating more cheese to spite you, I'll just eat any extra unwanted cheese you (being any hypothetical vegans I might eat with) got served that would have to go to the trash otherwise.
But I respect your cause, and while I'm not fully vegan I do try to eat animal products mindfully and reduce my consumption of them.
Sike, we can never be friends, bloodmouth!
I hope bloodmouth is an actual slur used for non-vegans. It's so metal.
It is, also carnist and omni
It definitely sounds cooler than "dirtmouth" or whatever the opposite equivalent would be.
How do you feel about precision fermentation to make milk products. Presumably this will eventually make cheese we can purchase made entirely without animals. Will you partake in this cheese or just keep the no cheese lifestyle?
I absolutely will. I am actually really interested in a lot of food science stuff and was wondering whether or not you could mimic the sort of processes that create milk and stuff, and lo and behold people be doing it! Pretty neat stuff. Although I still get the feeling you could probably make some decent "cheese" by aging various types of tofus, but I've yet to begin experimenting there. And am also scared of poisoning myself.
Why don't vegans just milk themselves and make vegan cheese?
Who's saying I don't.
I mean, you. Like two comments ago.
