Over 8 years into veganism, I was sold meat for the first time (lemmy.ml)

I had cheese put into my food before, but now I was given meat-meat and not only once but twice (different places).

It wasn't even by people not understanding what veganism is, it was just a very blatant swap.

Sure, I got money back, but I'm wondering: has the acceptance of vegans gone down and malice towards us gone up? I would've thought it would've gotten better over time.

I'm asking because I'm so far removed from the vegan community I forget I'm vegan because the store being "empty" for me is the norm, as is checking labels etc; I've no clue whether other vegans are facing similar issues as of late.

it’s indistinguishable from the outside unless one reads the ingredints

Someone just didn't read the ingredients when fulfilling the order. If they only recently started doing non-vegan dishes, they probably are not used have to read the ingredient when fulfilling every order and assumed the package they grabbed was vegan.

Its probably good feedback to give that the packaging should make it clear a a glance what is/isn't vegan so customers can tell they received what they ordered, and would help people fulfilling orders to be more accurate/quick.
