Vegans obviously do not consume any animal products.
I wonder - if the bomb dropped and it was eat rat meat or die the vegans would prefer death?
I personally think it is highly unlikely.

If you fancy a burger, or a steak, you're out of luck. Even if they have a vege option, it's rare that vegetarians in the group actually want to eat it. They'd rather go to some wanky vegetarian cafe.

Yes it is. Being a vegetarian is purely about diet.

All the parties I have are BBQs at my gaff, they're pretty good except that one time we had to stand around and bbq some vegetarian 'burgers' for someone before anyone else could eat, because we weren't allowed to put them on the bbq grill after meat had touched it :eyeroll:
Re above, there's different types of veganism, if you're an ethical vegan then you're against the industry not just against eating it yourself. It really does get worse for everyone else than keeping quiet and avoiding eating meat...Last edited by FIERCE TANK BATTLE; 20 February 2020, 15:07.
