Have you seen old people? Eating cheese to eliminate the last decade of "living" basically as a zombie that shits itself sounds like a win not a loss.

Silly westerners and your cheeses...

~(Proceeds to put mozzarella cheese all over his otherwise authentic Korean ddokbokki)~

Being from Wisconsin, this is essentially how the entire culture is. The good news is this means we have some pretty spot-on cheese replacements in vegan restaurants 😊 (I’m not vegan, but my internals do better when I pretend to be)

Everything has cheese, even shit that shouldn’t have cheese. I’m not complaining cuz it’s delicious, but it does (especially when added to beer) make maintaining a healthy weight and digestive tract a lot harder.

I'm a hardcore omnivore and bordeline anti-vegan... but there are some "faux cheese" options that are surprisingly pretty damn good.

I was tricked into trying a faux lasagna with cashew cheese. The "not-meat" was as disgusting as I expected, but the cashew cheese was surprisingly delicious. It didn't entirely want you to believe it was really cheese, but it wanted you to agree it was a delicious savory sauce that worked where cheese goes.

The best fake meat is the stuff that's at least real food, and not pretend food (like bean burgers, though those are still better than Impossible Burgers).

It's not just the dying earlier, it the feeling like crap all the time before it gets bad enough that you die from it.

Especially if the alternative is guacamole.

Fr. Vegans out in force here. Which is fine. No issue with vegans. But I have an issue with how much elitism and smugness is coming from this comment section.

The topic is a shit post about how easy it is to make healthy food unhealthy through bad eating habits, poor balance in ingredients, and through misrepresentation of food's nutritional value. All the condescending "JuSt EaT pLaNt" is not asked for and obnoxious.

You clearly need to learn how to cook.
