Yup, us vegans are super douchey.
I'm about to have some of this vegan rhubarb-raspberry pie my wife made for breakfast.
I wonder what he's having? Probably seal blubber and fish heads or something. For somebody who clearly dislikes vegans, he certainly has plenty of time to sit on this thread dedicated to veganism and whine.

I have seen plenty.
Everyone is different!
I personally thrive on most plants with some animal protein (fish, eggs, and poultry only) thrown in. Grains and dairy do not agree with me so I try to keep those to small occasional indulgences, although I've been eating a lot of delicious grass fed cheese lately.

I hate veggies. I'm a born carnivore. Got massive canine teeth so I take that as a sign.
I'll eat veggies anyway, but prefer a plate full of meat. How do these 'picky ass people who hate veggies' annoy you?

People who hate veggies annoy me because they are spoiled enough to have the option to avoid a whole food group. It also means you have a terrible pallet and you are missing out on flavors in many cuisines. I'm not a vegan and I eat a lot of meat as well but veggies pickled, fermented and cooked are awesome. Whatevsies.

Hang on, you live in one of the richest nations in the world... You're spoiled. I'm spoiled. There's no doubt about that. I've visited the third world on a few occasions, we are spoiled beyond belief, regardless of our choice in food. The fact that we even have choice; the fact that you have choice to enjoy vegetables and the fact that I have choice to enjoy meat, considering the starving masses on this planet is the essence of being spoiled. I put it to you that you stand in no position to judge anyone here as being 'spoiled' simply due to their preference for macronutrient sources.
And stating that someone has a 'terrible pallet' is so subjective. So basically you think that anyone who doesn't share the same tastes as you is 'spoiled', 'picky', and 'annoying'?
My my. Why so judgemental?

Fair enough. I was just surprised by your answer is all. No hard feelings, just trying to understand why you would feel that way.

All good I didn't really think all of that through as well as you did before I replied. Didn't mean to strike a nerve. My older brother used to make me eat his broccoli when my parents weren't looking so it's probably just a deep seeded issue. My therapist is going to have his hands full tomorrow...

LOL, I saw mine day before yesterday. Trying to get to the bottom of my compulsive drug use at the moment - also, undoubtedly, a deep seeded issue.
No nerve struck man, and I apologise if I came on a little strong. I can get a little heated in debate at times.
Peace out.

Ever check out the canines on a hippo? They've got some of the biggest canines in the world and they don't eat meat. They're exclusively herbivores. Other animals with massive canines, (wayyyy bigger than yours, JSB,) who don't eat meat are gorillas, camels, and even the saber toothed deer.
Yep, I said it. The saber-toothed deer doesn't eat anything but leaves, flowers, grasses, and moss.
In fact, nearly every animal gifted with extraordinary canine teeth uses them not for the consumption of food, but for defense in territorial disputes or when competing for a mate.
Here's the article I'm referencing so you can see pictures of the enormous teeth.
Big Teeth Gallery
I'm not trying to be argumentative here, but if I had a nickel for every time someone said to me, "Humans are supposed to eat meat, we have canine teeth, duh!" I would be a very rich man.
It's been a long time since our common ancestors used canines to bite each other over food, territory, and females.

Eminence said: I do recommend that if you eat meat, you should try hunting though if you don't already. I actually feel that if you eat meat, you should have the nerve to be able to kill your own food. Not implying you should have to do it everytime, but just be able to do it. I think it's really weird when people who eat meat are too afraid or sad about killing to hunt.
I would hunt if I had to survive. But i can go to the grocery store. I do not have to feel my heart sink when ive wounded some healthy animal for no reason other than its minding its own business.
I've been putting animals down for almost 15 years, thousands. killing for sport would bring me no pleasure or pride at all. Yes I understand the meat is cleaner, I admit the hunting part would be fun, but seeing it be hit with a bullet wouldnt do anything for me other than make me sick.
Atleast when I kill something its out of mercy and compassion, to put an end to its suffering. Something we cant even do for our ownselves (which is fucking awful by the way). I generally only dispatch healthy animals that have behavior problems. it is not fair to pass those problems on to other people. Either it is because they are dangerous, or because they go to the bathroom inappropriately most often.
