Hey guys, it's Charlotte here and in today's video, we're going to be diving into a highly debated topic - vegans vs non-vegans. Now, before we start, I want to make it clear that I'm not here to judge anyone's lifestyle choices. Instead, I want to explore both sides of the argument and shed some light on the reasons why people choose to either go vegan or continue eating meat.
First, let's talk about the vegans. Vegans choose to avoid all animal products, including meat, dairy, and even honey. They do this for a variety of reasons, including ethical concerns for animal welfare, environmental sustainability, and personal health. Many vegans argue that it's wrong to consume animal products because animals are sentient beings that can feel pain and suffering just like humans. They also argue that animal agriculture is one of the leading contributors to environmental degradation and climate change.
On the other hand, we have non-vegans who choose to continue consuming animal products. Many non-vegans argue that meat and dairy are an important part of their diet and provide essential nutrients that are difficult to obtain from plant-based sources alone. They also argue that humans have been consuming animal products for thousands of years and that it's natural for us to do so.
However, it's important to note that not all non-vegans are the same. Some may choose to consume meat and dairy products from more sustainable and ethical sources, while others may not be as conscious about where their food comes from.
Ultimately, the decision to go vegan or continue consuming animal products is a personal one. It's important to do your own research and make an informed decision based on your own values and beliefs. Both vegans and non-vegans can coexist and respect each other's choices without judgment or animosity.
So, there you have it guys - a brief overview of the vegan vs non-vegan debate. Let me know in the comments what you think about this topic, and as always, don't forget to like and subscribe for more videos like this one!

Our cook at camps was a vegan, she kept cooking meat for us and did special dishes for herself. She never tasted our portions therefore reqired one of us be there and do taste tests, we loved that as kids and loved her. She never put any pressure on us for eating meat, but she did educate us about the state of mass meat productions and showed us what we can change or do to get to meat that comes from good places. This is how you do veganism right. (she switched to being an vegetarian due to medical issues but is still the sweetest person I know).
Yes!! I talked to a vegan friend once and she educated me in the things. I now get organic free range everything.
Amen to this! I have a number of vegan friends, and a few vegetarian or meat-reduced diet friends who moved towards those diets BECAUSE the vegan friends were not pushy and were respectful like this. Most people would eat a meat-reduced diet, at the very least (like meat 1 or 2 times a week if that), if they were not forced and were shown valid healthy reasons to do so. The more forceful the push to "change" the more people in an individualistic society will push back and be stubborn.
This! ❤😊
As an omnivore, I have huge respect for vegans and vegetarians. I truely believe that veganism and vegetarianism will save the world. Growing meat is not only harmful for the animals themselves but also for the environment. Most of the farmland is being used to grow animal food. Also eating too much meat is bad for health. My gastroenteorologist told eating 3 servings of meat per week is enough and I believe her. Also all my vegan and vegetarian friends are the kindest people I know. But I know many aggressive omnivores who do not tire from manifesting their beliefs. So annoying.
I’m not vegan, I’m not fully vegetarian either, because I do occasionally eat tuna in a salad, I’m looking for alternatives but even then I will eat dairy still.
My partner isn’t vegetarian but he eats mostly vegetarian too now, he enjoys the alternatives and if he wants meat, he’s totally welcome.
Just with the changes to his diet already, he’s made a difference and he eats healthier than he used to, just in general
It’s really annoying when this small group of vegans becomes the face of the vegan community. The majority of us would never try to judge other people, The majority of us also know that this lifestyle isn’t for everybody.
I’ve been vegan for 7 years and my family isn’t, but I would never judge them for that. Sometimes they eat some of the foods I make and they love it. It’s all chill.
Eat what you wanna eat, eat what you can eat. There is no judgement. ❤
I wish people understood the difference between vegan and plant based 🤦♂️
We have an interesting, borderline ironic, situation in my family. I have an older brother who, like me, has a lot of allergies including those related to food. He found out a few years ago that by switching to a vegan diet his health improved and now he, or his wife, will make a separate plate for him to eat; his family eats normally with no restrictions. I, on the other hand, mainly eat meat, with spinach and other things I can eat. Due to my own allergies a vegan diet, or even a vegetarian one, would be too restrictive for me to live off of.
Bottomline is that while we have in common that we have a plethora of allergies it is interesting that the fact that we are allergic to different foods radically changes the type of diet we both can eat. He also doesn't force his wife nor his infant daughter to eat his diet. He respects what other people eat and we also respect, and are also considerate, to what he eats. Win win all around.
"Small group" my foot.
@@wmdkitty it actually IS a small percentage of Vegans who are in your face. They are just really loud and obnoxious about it so it seems like it is all of them.
unfortunately the most obnoxious and hateful people are good at grabbing the spotlight. I honestly really respect vegans and vegetarians who may like meat but gave it up for moral reasons, or who do it as a discipline etc and are kind to others. Yall are the awesome ones and I wish there was a way to boost that more
The video with the woman accidentally eating a chicken burger is a great example of how most people actually interact (in contrast to the woman standing outside of KFC shouting at strangers 🤣). She ate meat by accident, wasn't happy about it but didn't start going off on the guy or anything. He stopped her as soon as he realized she thought it's vegan, and apologized. All around great interaction 🤷♀
100% - I feel bad for both of them. It was an accident. But yeah, he was sorry and she didn’t have more than a bite.
She prob went away cause she realised she really liked it. XD
@@Erisscarletnah, if you don't eat sowmthinf for very long the point is that you will have a bad stomach flu and that's it.
I couldn't tell if he did it on purpose or if it was really an honest mistake. I hope it was a mistake though because that's messed up otherwise.
Plus, there are people who have a medical condition and can't really eat meat, so this could've been extremely dangerous
I have a friend that had to stop being vegan due to a medical condition as well.... she was judged so so hard for it but it was literally making her ill. I felt so bad for her.
She was judged ? Who’s the villain here?
There are millions of people who have been vegans for decades, the only time it goes wrong if if one eats imbalanced.
@06fxdbi31 the vegan activists, is my bet
@@sachinraghavan4556 Just because people have been doing it for decades doesn't mean its a one and done thing. Its fine for healthy people.
Plants are harder for the body to breakdown, she wasn't producing enough enzymes due to a medical condition to keep up with the digestion to get the nutrition she needed out of them, she was told medically it was not good for idea for her.
She still follows what she can but she has to supplement a couple of times a week with non-vegan food because her body just can't process food in the same way as healthy people.
Just because it works for the majority doesn't mean it works for everyone.
@@chrispham6599 @06fxdbi31 Yeah other vegans she has been friend with that she shared tips/tricks/recipes etc. with mostly.
People just don't think about the fact there are people out there that can process food as your body should. Which I find so funny in a world where we are so hot about allergies/intolerances which literally show some people can't process some foods the same way.
As soon as it goes against their beliefs that's it, no room for any argument or deviation from what a healthy normal person can manage.
Why did that woman feel like she needed to go up to a complete stranger and ask him why he’s eating chicken? Leave the guy alone and let him eat his KFC.
My favorite was dude absolutely sucking on his fingers as his bro was telling her about her leather coat. Lol
I have real doubts that was even meat at KFC..... really
Wearing a leather jacket, no less. Karens gonna Karen.
@@gabyspan940 KFC's are individually franchised, so one can be really good and the next can be a hell of fake food and general grossness. All depends on the owner.
@@gabyspan940 I totally agree with you about KFC, personally I wouldn’t eat there if you paid me too, but I’m not going to go jump on someone who eats there
If you're fighting for chicken rights I think going to a KFC is too late in the chain of purpose 😅😅
😂❤ correct.
Thats so funny but true
My thoughts exactly 😂😂
For real, you're just getting high on your own farts when you do what that woman did.
Thank you! 🤣
I’ve been a vegetarian since I was 12 and I still find this freakin hilarious 😂 I don’t push it on anyone because that’s weird af. I don’t care what others do. It was my choice and it’s a privilege.
Does that philosophy carry to all aspects of life?
@@KaseyHester seriously doubt it.
Its not a privilege to starve your body of the proteins it needs. 🙄
Being veggie isn’t a privilege. Maybe In the western world but lots of cultures eat primarily vegetarian food because meat is so expensive or not something that can be afforded daily. There is a massive difference between vegetarianism and veganism. Veganism is a privilege vegetarianism is a necessity for lots
@@wolfchild9998 In Europe is a kind of a privilege because healthy balance food, with a vegetarian diet, can be quite expensive if you don't have a farmer or a local market next to you. Eating cheap and bad meat is clearly easier than buying good and so expensive meat, without going to a butcher, just at the mall.
For exemple, Tofu in France is less expensive than good meat, but it is still the same price than a regular steak. In Japan, it was, for me, sooooo much cheaper. Because, different culture, diet, local plant, etc.
He left out the part where Jenna also said one of the reasons why she became pescatarian after being vegan is because she was experiencing weakness and her body couldn’t keep up with it❤
I was vegan for two years and thrived, ny body felt amazing and my bloodwork was better than it ever has been. That was my body, though. My sibling was vegan as well for a while but their body did not thrive. Each body is different, it's important to remember that our own experience is not going to be everyone's experience. Different strokes for different folks or something like that 😂
So interesting.
Tentu. Mkx jgn mau maksa org lain
I was a vegetarian for 2 years and my doctor said I needed to incorporate meat back into my diet. I still do a meatless day once or twice a week, and I've never been able to eat ground beef again. No matter how lean it is, it ALWAYS makes me pretty sick in my gut. But I like ground turkey so I don't miss it.
Very true. Most people CAN'T give up meat because it will literally kill them; slowly, and painfully, KILL them.
Facts right there 👍
I don't eat meat at all and once I told my aunt I found this really delicious recipe, but the second she heard it was vegan she didn't want to hear more telling me "oh no, my family will not eat it if it's vegan". But like, I'm confused to this day because she could just use it as a side dish or add meat to it if she wanted? I don't mind people eating meat, but the immediate rejection of the recipe because she heard the word vegan was weird.
Yeah I also have experience with something like this. Someone once told me "I am never going to consume anything vegan!" and I asked: "Do you drink water or eat an apple?". I think many people (including some vegans) don't really understand what vegan means and I also think many people use different definitions. Too bad that a minority of vegans give the entire vegan community a bad name and it makes people reluctant to associate themselves with the label 'vegan'...
The amount of people who have weaponized their veganism is the reason people turn sour when they hear the word vegan
I love meats but I love my veggies just as much and absolutely use several vegan recipes as side dishes when I cook. I don't get people who are so weird about it. I don't have to have meat with every meal. I've made lovely meals only realizing later that it had absolutely no meat in it lol. My spaghetti sauce is 100% vegan and i don't like meat in it. So as long as you don't throw cheese on you're set. Lol nutritional yeast is a fine sub for parmesan too
I just like food of all types and try not to get all upset about it
Fed is best lol
I'm in a relationship with a vegetarian(medical reasons) and since I do most of the cooking and still wanna eat meat myself I normally make 2 separate meals for us making whatever meat I use i make a vegetarian version of said food like steak, fried chicken, shish kabobs, chicken broccoli Alfredo ect, so she feels included to whatever special meal I've made
That’s so sweet!!!! And I do the same for my husband ish. Vegetables really mess with his digestion and he just doesn’t like them, so I will hide what veggies I know he can have, and just make separate meals with like broccoli and kale and mushrooms in mine. It’s always nice to feel appreciated and loved. And food does just that.
You're more generous than I am, for sure. If my partner needed to go full vegetarian, I'd happily continue to buy their groceries and cook vegetarian once in a while, but they'd have to be responsible for their own meals if I happened to be cooking lamb chops or pozole or whatnot.
Wow sounds like a lot of work.
That is so sweet. Curious question have you tried the meat. I have always wanted to try it but have been to scared to. I have heard it's good and it looks good.
@@ElizabethTheUnicorn829 the meatless meat?
I’m vegetarian, not vegan, but these videos crack me up. That old lady “I’m here to speak up for the chickens.” Had me laughing, “save the baby dinosaurs!”
that’s fine if you’re vegetarian
I recently got allergy testing done and found out I have allergies to most fruits, veggies, grains, and basically all plants. But no meat allergies. So there goes any thoughts I may have entertained of going vegetarian or vegan. 🤣
Seriously though, I really do love veggies and fruit so I was very sad about all the allergies.
You need to pull a Jimmy from Raising Hope... fruit in one hand and benadryl in the other.🤣
You do know that allergy testing is very unreliable. Fixing your gut and doing an elimination diet are the way to go.
That’s sad because I love fruit and veggies too and, would be feel bad if I had a food allergy to them. Guess you’ll have to take vitamins to get the nutrition you need.
This is actually a thing; it’s usually an enzyme deficiency. Was 90% vegetarian since my teens, always felt ill & was underweight my whole life. At 50 my gut truly went berserk, had SO many tests done, turns out I cannot digest nearly all fruits & veg, which leads to numerous food intolerances. Have felt the best I’ve ever felt in life and am finally at a healthy weight (5’7, 125lb) because I was forced to change to a carnivore diet. Plant-based anything is misery waiting to happen for me.
That would ruin my life. I'm not vegetarian but I love veggies!
We have a vegan in our friend group and he's one of the most chilliest vegans ever. We all crack jokes about it (just like we do with everyone) and have a laugh but we'll also buy a couple vegan items for him when we have get-togethers so that he can be included. He'll always just quietly look at the ingredients and if he can't eat it, he'll just put it back. He brings his own food to get-togethers and ask if it's alright to use our kitchens to cook his food which we always say yes because he never makes a fuss about anything. And the funniest thing is when he smells the meat that we're cooking and is like "aw man that smells so good!" I think more vegans need to take a leaf out of his book and just chill, we respect his choice to eat vegan and he respects our choice to eat meat.
That's how most vegans are dude 😅
I think it's sad he has to bring his own thing at every gathering however... Like I have vegans or vegetarians in a friend group, and when we see each other we try to mosly go vegan for that night. Unless you all live together, all is good with it haha. But I mean everyone does what they want !
Same. I'm a vegetarian ( not a vegan ), and I'm not pretentious about it either. I don't care if you wanna eat meat, and I always have a positive reaction if one of my buddies shows me what he cooked/ate that contains meat. I stop eating meat because of health reasons, and that's all. Being a vegan/vegetarian is not a personality trait like some people think it is.
THESE are the type of vegans I absolutely LOVE!! That’s exactly how my uncle is! He’s been vegan for like 30 yrs and he’s still so deep rooted in it. Every night, the nite before work, he will always go get his vegan lunch set up for the next day. But he NEVER not ONCE ever forced anyone to eat the stuff he bought/ordered. He was always super chill bout His own beliefs
Would you respect someone's choice to eat human flesh?
He will be an ex vegan soon.
As someone who also can't eat vegetarian/vegan due to major food allergies/sensitivities and health problems, I really feel for that woman. It's not just having to eat the salmon, it's having to accept that our bodies are changing, and sometimes that makes us feel like they're turning on us in a way. It's hard to deal with big changes in relation to your health, lifestyle and beliefs. Seeing her label herself as pathetic at the end really broke my heart. Be kinder to yourself girl, it's a big change to deal with. ❤
I always kept eating meat, but was trying to limit it to one time a week? But I've developped some really bad food sensitivities, so even this is making it hard. Aka, I can't digest things like soy anymore. It is wrecking my intestines, and I end up being sick for a day or two, and to run often to the toilets.
What I hate the most ? Some vegan people I know are still feel the fucking need to tell me "Oh it's so wrong that you are eating meeeeat booooo". Like bruh, I can't sustitute it to keep a balanced diet, and I don't plan spending every day of my life with stomach cramps and explosive diarrhea. T_T
My brother & I have a condition where our bodies don't digest plant based products as they should. Didn't even know that was possible really until we got diagnosed about 4/5 years ago & I'm finding out it's more common than I first thought.
95% of our diet has to be meat based. We stick to low fat & organic as much as possible. Lucky for me, I'm okay with some fish & turkey so I get more variety beyond beef & chicken.
My husband is mainly vegetarian & it amazes me how many people wonder how we manage to cook/eat. Easy lol Isn't even an issue eating out. He eats the majority of my veggies & if he has meat, he'll either share or give me the whole thing.
Someone told me once my body would just adjust if I went vegan. Ummm no lol Constant cramps, diarrhoea or constipation is not on my life long dance card thanks.
It's hard enough finding stuff GF without soy. That seems to be the substitute in so many things now.
I feel for her too. I've been mostly vegetarian for years (personal decision, not judging anyone), and have been taking a medication that has made me so deficient in potassium and magnesium that I've had seizures. Supplements just aren't enough sometimes. I'm glad that I can just limit my meat intake to fish - still makes me feel guilty, but there's only so much we can do sometimes. It makes me feel even worse when vegans tell me I'm lying about needing to eat fish. Like hey, I'm glad y'all are healthy enough that you think nobody else has issues, but sheesh.
I feel for her too but it just didn't seem super authentic. But I think that's more about the "here let me pretty cry in front of a camera now" than what it was about.
@@mistycrawford2098 If she was truly vegan she really shouldn't eat that large portion as her first attempt at eating meat.
“The best impact you could have is die” lmao that guy is hilarious. I want a beer with him
I was a vegan many years ago and I was at a family reunion with my boyfriends family and meat and cheese was on everything, including the salad. Since they knew we didn't eat meat, they made a show of it by stating very loudly "here are your special salads without meat". It was in the most disapproving tone ever! Unfortunately, this was a long time ago and I abandoned veganism because it was too hard to do it and there were not the options that are available today. I do eat vegan meals during the week, but I do love my cheese and seafood.
I feel that so hard. I am Italian and i have social anxiety, here is so hard being vegan, so i stick to being vegetarian for the most part and i opt for the vegan option if i don't feel too pressured and my anxiety is doing ok. I wanted to became vegetarian way before, since i was 12-13 but post-poned it for kinda 10 years because of people judgement. We really should be more kind to one another, both ways.
Sometimes it’s geographical location. I remember watching a video of a debate over being vegan and someone there said how she lived VERY far north in Alaska where they hunt seals and things for food and you can’t get there easily except by plane. This guy who was a vegan got all snippy and was like “just go to the store and get some bananas instead” hahahaha yes because it’s so easy to just POOF a tropical banana in REMOTE ALASKA🤦🏽♀️
Unless she specifically said 'remote'... how would he know? If she did he's an idiot though and we do not claim him.
Per definition being vegan means to cause as little harm as possible and practical. So if they have no other way of surviving, killing animals is... okay-ish. Personally I'd suggest moving somewhere else but as that also isn't always possible, oh well. However there's a difference between murdering out of necessity and murdering for the momentary satisfaction of your taste buds.
So it's about accessibility. Someone might life in a big ass city but rely on the food bank, who doesn't provide vegan options as far as I know. And they're not bad people for that, just as the Alaskan Person isn't :)
@@autumnleaves4879 oh she absolutely did and yes don’t claim this moron because he’s giving nice and credible vegans a bad name. It was a panel and he made an absolute fool of himself badgering this woman about eating a banana in rural Alaska! It was ridiculous because you could tell his brain 🧠 legit wasn’t connecting to the fact that where she lived it was virtually impossible to be vegan. Plus I believe she was of Native American decent so there were cultural things brought up as well that he was rude about. It’s just so sad that unfortunately sometimes the loud vegans are the not so bright ones.
@@autumnleaves4879 "Per definition being vegan means to cause as little harm as possible and practical. So if they have no other way of surviving, killing animals is... okay-ish." What? No that is not the definition of Vegan. Vegan means no use of *any* animal product in your diet. If you are killing animals for food you are not Vegan.
@@autumnleaves4879 but the vegans preach everyone should be eating vegan. EVERYONE. Those indegenous people in Alaska, and the tribes in Siberia where you don't have a city in hundreds of miles and you cannot grow effin veggies on the tundra. Veganism is alos pretty effin expensive. no, you cannot be vegan on seasonal vegetables grown in your garden. you'd suffer vitamin and mineral deficiencies. you need the "fake meats'" that you have to buy in a store, you need quinoa and whatnot to provide you the essentials. If you want to do veganism safely, that your body won't suffer swerious consequences, you need to shell out serious cash. Veganism is the toy of the higher middle class and the rich spoiled people who don't know what to spend their money on. You can't be a vegan on minimum wage. Not if you don't wanna be sick in a few months.... it's ridiculous how the well-off preach to the world about saving the planet LOL. these people also shouldn't sit on planes, buy plastic products, drive cars etc. If you wanna save the planet so effin bad, do it right. Do all the things, not just force your views on people eating KFC in a parking lot.
They must have been a native Alaskan, only they are allowed to hunt and eat seal and whale meat. Food is very expensive in the villages and yes it would be very hard to be vegan. Moving would also be extremely difficult so they wouldn’t have very many options.
I accidentally bought sugar-free popsicles once & my husband ate half of the box before he realized they were sugarless. He wouldn’t touch them after & was adamant that they tasted weird 🥴 Haha, the mind is so powerful.
I bet his bathroom trip after that was fun. Synthetic sweeteners are laxatives. Lol
That's such a good idea to make sure no one touches my Popsicles 😅 Honestly though, my family would be like ewww to my face, but then sneak them when I wasn't looking, then blame the missing ones on each other 😂😂😂 I'm still trying it.
@@amybittick7092 that was my first thought too. And certain artificuial sweeteners can cause bloating, especially if you have too much.
I can't have artificial sweeteners because I have hemiplegic migraines and artificial sweeteners are in EVERYTHING from gum to flavored water to yogurt
“Can we just be respectful of one another?”
Such a simple notion that seems to be so damn difficult to many people. I just don’t get it!
Also, the guy saying “He’s a vegan too, on a Wednesday!” totally sent me 😂
Why should I respect animal abuse???... Please explain why you think that is worthy of respect???... You're an animal , should I respect it if someone abused you too or is it just special snowflake rules???... ;-)
That spaghetti was delicious and he can’t change the fact that he scarfed it down…..it hit his tummy and it said “YUMMY!”
Yea I make the same shit all the time it’s good af
I mean looking at the serving, I wouldn't be surprised if there just wasn't enough sauce on there to notice a difference.
I have vegan "meat" pretty often and it's fine, but it does taste (and feel) different from actual meat.
🤣 one time in uni I made pigs in a blanket with veggie hot dogs (I eat meat but some of my family doesn’t and they have these really good veggie dogs that I used to like). I had a bunch left over and text one of my guy friends that I had extra of him and his roomies wanted any. They LOVED THEM! But when I told them they were veggie (after they ate them and loved them) they acted like I poisoned them!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@candicecart9786 How dare you force vegetables in disguise onto them!?
Honestly, I kinda feel for the fish girl. My dad was vegan, non-confrontational, served what he served at his house, but didn't fuss if you picked up a burger on the way home. Loved him for it. But after about 3 years of constantly being sick, he got his doctor to do a FULL allergen screening on him, not just the common allergies. He was allergic to soy, coconut, and a handful of other things I can't remember. It broke his heart to go back to a pescatarian (fish-based) diet, but we started watching youtube videos on Japanese and Korean cooking together and he's much better now.
Even if I wanted to go vegan (which I don’t ) I have an almond and coconut allergy which are the most common fat substitute used in vegan products so I couldn’t
@@ichigoai60 I have ZERO allergies and eat whatever the heck I want. I just thought I'd throw that out there as it seems it was a 'who has the mostest allergies' thread.
@@capnobvious2718 That's really not what the point of this conversation was friend.
@@ichigoai60I'm not vegan, but I use ghee as a healthy fat. It's expensive to buy but not that hard to make.
She was crying in to a camera. Her only need was attention
I feel for the girl with the fish. My cousin was vegetarian for a while but her doctor told her that she desperately needed more protein and couldn't be vegetarian anymore. Your health is the most important thing.
I went vegan for six months, I got really really sick.
YEAH I HAVE CROHNS IF I DIDN`T EAT MEAT I WOULDN`T BE ALIVE IT`S THAT SIMPLE, I DO THE BEST I CAN WITH MY PURSE WHEN IT COMES TO ORGANIC AND FREE RANGE BUT THATS IT
I know, its hard to see people being ridiculed for something they dont have control on.
I eat meat, but I have severe food aversions to other things, so I really felt for her. Poor thing. I hope she's okay.
idk it looks awfully fake crying imo
I am a meat eater for sure but I honestly felt SO bad for the girl that had the Salmon bc her body needed it for health reasons. You could tell it was so important to her to be vegan. Her poor feelings were hurt bc she CARES for the animals. Bless her.. 💙
Lucky I don’t think fish are abused in fish farms… hopefully most likely
@@Glitchinthemultiverseunfortunately they kinda are. They are kept in small spaces where diseases are common. Also they kinda go crazy because of the spinning in circles. So I don't know
Is it really a breakdown if U film it? 😒
Looks staged af. I doubt she is vegan. Her cheeks fat begs to differ.
“When we die, our bodies become the grass. The antelope eat the grass. And so we’re all connected in the great circle of life.” I thought of Mufasa saying this when the guy said the greatest thing you could do for the planet is die, and I don’t know why!!😂😂
When I make tacos, I make the plant based for husband, who is a vegetarian (he eats dairy) but also real meat for the rest of us. My kids will eat the plant base product, but prefer meat. I love my meat (mother was a butcher) and won’t give it up. Been married 35 years
The only thing I won’t cook if he’s home, is black pudding (blood pudding) so I just wait until he’s on a business trip 😂
Edit - when we were married all those years ago, half our food at the wedding was vegetarian and hubby was the only one, didn’t matter, my parents wanted to make sure he could eat 😂
I like that your parents were willing to do that I know some would be like no. After all we have seen plenty on here with Charlotte.
That's love
I love the newer meat substitutes like Beyond Meat and the Impossible Burger. I actually prefer those over real ground beef. I broke a tooth years ago on a real burger because of a bone chip. Last "real" burger I ever ate.
My roommate in college was vegan and she was actually super chill about it, it was awesome 😊 she showed me lots of vegan desserts that were absolutely delicious and she was also a fantastic cook which I’m lowkey still jealous of. She did eventually also have to switch back to having some meat in her diet due to health, but she’s still able to limit some and be respectful as well as care about where she’s getting all of her products from.
She was never pushy or judgmental though, she was happy to inform if we had questions and was very polite with asking about vegan options or even bringing her own dish if she was concerned one wouldn’t be provided. A truly wonderful person, love her to this day.
But tbh she did seem slightly happier when she was able to add Chick-fil-A back into her diet 😂😂
The crying salmon lady is so sad. The same thing happened to my cousin. She was fully vegan for a decade, but she developed health issues that could have led to her death, so she had no choice but to add fish and dairy.
And holy crap, your poor dad. I've heard stories of the Holodomor, but your dad's plight is way more recent...
I would also like to add that you don't have to be veg/vegan to mindfully reduce your contribution to animal suffering. My family eats small scale farmed animals whenever possible, which directly supports our local economy and a mindful producer. The mennonites don't use hormones or unnecessary antibiotics, and how they treat animals is literally part of their moral code. We get eggs from my FIL, and he feeds his chickens like queens with a custom blend and lots of veggies over the winter.
We also hunt wild game, and fish for our personal consumption in the legally mandated sustainable way (ie, we do not poach/take more than we need). The animals have then lived their intended lifestyle and are very quickly dispatched as humanely as possible. Partridge in particular are highly responsive to population pressure and food abundance, so it's uncommon that we have to simply stop hunting in an area.
It's ok to take small steps, especially because cost is a factor. It can be hard to eat healthy and sustainably. Just making what mindful decisions you're capable of is helping.
My cousin is the opposite of the vegan girl eating fish : she has SO many allergies, including to meat after getting bitten by a tick (sorry if it isn't the right spelling, I'm not a native English speaker) and so she turned to veganism because it was the safest option for her, she doesn't have any allergic reactions since she's been going to vegan food stores and restaurants. Still she accepts the rest of the people around her because she cares about us all more than just put dietary choices.
I've heard if people developing allergies to meat due to tick bites. One of my teachers got Lyme disease after a tick bite and did a heavy metal detox and said he hasn't had any flares ever since. I'm not doctor just throwing it out there as something to look in to but perhaps the dietary changes she's already made may be enough for her.
You have the spelling correct, and that would most likely that they were bitten by a tick and contracted the Alpha Galactose antigen from it. It depends on what part of the world you're from, as to the specific tick that's the carrier.
@@loryndabenson2118 usually it's a specific type of tick depending on the part of the world someone is from.
As a vegan it makes me so sad to see that most people’s opinion of vegans are rude, pushy and cult like. These ‘vegans’ are the equivalent of the guy who yells about Jesus with a megaphone on a street corner on your way to work - we DON’T claim these vegans. Most of us do it quietly and will only share info if you come to us first 💕
^^ This 100%
Seriously, the disclaimer about not pushing your beliefs on others was so unnecessary. It's like telling a feminists "just don't hate men, ok?"
That's one of the bigger issues atm, throwing everyone under the bus because they fit into 1 criteria
All men are swines, because of a few rotten eggs. No they are not
All Muslims are terrorists because of a few rotten eggs. No they are not
All vegans are radicalized, because of a few rotten eggs. No they are not.
But the people who have something against these categories are also the ones who scream the loudest because they think they are right.
"Pfft pesky feminists shoving equality down everyone's throats"
Talking about Jesus is fine. We are told to in the Bible. Jesus is coming back. Believe he died for you sins and rose again then repent to be saved.
My ex was vegan, this was over 20 years ago. He was really true to his beliefs but he never shoved it on me. He would tell me about things and I would make sure not to eat meat or anything around him out of respect. Some of the food he let me try was lovely 😊
The horrible thing is though that wild animals are going extinct bc of vegans 🤷🏼♀️ Most of the produce comes from poor countries in Africa, South America, and Asia. In these areas “farmers” (who have zero sustainable farming knowledge) illegally destroy rain forests and kill animals - they’ve even made some species extinct... bc they don’t really know how to farm in a sustainable way, they ruin the soil and therefore destroy even more rain forests and kill even more animals 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️ Also nothing is vegan as bees and other pollinators are required to grow produce.. Cali farmers import bees from the Midwest every year to pollinate all the crops, especially the almond trees 🤷🏼♀️ It’s a huge business (bee farms)
I tried to become a vegetarian at uni.. I felt dead it was unreal. I remember crying because my dad was making beef and I knew I’d have to eat meat because I was too ill. I felt guilty but my health is the priority.
The fact that most of the comments are about respecting each other and sharing space despite difference of opinion, is a testimony to you, 🥔👸 Potato Queen and the spuds that you rally every day! 🎉
Sorry but trolling the protesters is a counter-protest...thus both have the same rights. The guys sitting in a KFC parking lot were not protesting anyone or anything. A vegan protesting diners at a restaurant serving meat is wrong just as if a meat eater walked into a vegan restaurant to eat a meat meal. Point is respecting each other is a two way street.
@@BWolf00 I agree. I was only referring to the VIEWER comments.
I was a vegan for 3 yrs and started getting bad stomach pains and couldn't eat solids for almost 2-3 months cause when I did it'd come back up. Got to the point where I was so hungry and just ate regular food as the doctors couldn't figure out what was going on. Haven't had an issue since. I just balance it out where some days I eat meat and some days I'll have a plant based meal.
A lot of times vegan food isn't healthy, especially the fake stuff that is heavily processed.
dead animals is not "regular" food
@@derda1304 kinda is though XD
I had some similar problems when I was a
Vegan.
With that attitude, you may have followed a plant based diet but you were never vegan. No vegan would call corpses 'regular food'
Ex vegan here, yeah I had a really hard time when chronic illness forced me back onto fish too. It was really this hard :/ I appreciate Charlotte being so understanding to her.
😂😂😂
Vegetarian for 10 years, my food got mixed up with my friends food and I took a bite before noticing and cried. 😂 It's like yeah, I feel ridiculous/ dramatic for my reaction but it's super hard and heartbreaking when you are committed to something and have a strong belief and then have to completely change your mindset & lifestyle. I hope you're doing okay with managing your illness and I hope things have gotten easier for you!
You spelt "Ex Plant Based" wrong 😊
Question: Was it not possible to get protein via lentils or soy? Or was there something specific in the fish (like perhaps the Omega's) that you cannot get from any other product? Just curious. Thanks.
@@KayKay0314 these actually contain harmful toxins. I would encourage you look up Dr. Paul Saladino, he is the leading animal based diet expert and has a lot of good info if you just want to learn! He is not trying to force his opinion either, but can explain more about why legumes aren’t as nutritious as previously thought
I loved what Charlotte said, and totally agree. Being Vegan is a privilege! There are not only many places in the world, but even many places in the US, that people simply do not have the options to be Vegan. Especially affordable options. If as a Vegan you want more people to share somilar values, than YOU need to do the hard work of making it affordably accessible for everyone. Until you are putting in some major time and energy into that, than take several seats and don't critique anyone about how they eat.
I really love that Charlotte is so respectful of everyone's opinions and feelings. She's honest about how she feels yet SHE'S STILL KIND! YOU CAN DO BOTH! Love you Charlotte 💚🖤
Yes the cows love it !❤
I remember I joined this vegan Facebook group just because a friend invited me to. One of the post was about how to replace breast milk with like blended vegetables and like recipes for it. They were literally that serious about being vegan that they didn't even want to feed their children breast milk. There have been cases of babies dying because of that foolishness. Same with cats and wolf breeds being put on vegan diets. Lunacy.
that's terrible! i've heard of vegans trying to feed their cats vegan even tho cats should ONLY eat meat (obligate carnivores). sad how dangerous people can get by imposing their beliefs onto other beings + cause more harm even tho harm is what they intended to avoid.
LOL this is the biggest load of crap I have ever read. NO vegan that wasn't an absolute headcase would suggest this. Humans women produce milk for their children... Why the hell would it not be vegan? No vegan I have EVER known has said this. So either it's a lie... Or you found an absolute nut job.
Also know SO many people who were raised vegan and also are raising children vegan with absolutely no issues. Don't know a single vegan who has lost a loved one or child to veganism. Stop scaremongering. It's lame af.
Was working in an organic food store and the amount of shit I've heard and seen. People wanting to replace baby milk by coconut water (thanks casual french desinformator lol). While there's litterally baby formula WHO are vegan MADE specially for either vegan families or baby suffering from lactose intolerance.
WHAT! Breastmilk is literally made for the consumption of our offspring. Imagine it every creature never was nurtured by it's mother. It would be a cruel cruel world.
My best friends for over 30 years was vegan for a long time, I’m not and we never pushed each other for our individual beliefs. Now when she would come over for meals I would make sure what I made was 100% vegan for her so I didn’t make her comfortable and for my best friend I was ok with eating a vegan meal for the day for my best friend. Now because we would talk about things I agreed with some of her points and I now make sure any meat I eat is organic and from a local farmer so I know the animal was treated well. same with other food I try to get things from the local farmers markets and farm communities in my state and make things homemade so I know what’s in it.
One of my kids is vegan. I always make sure she gets a purely vegan vegetarian meal. Every time.
lol
If any of them saw how swollen and uncomfortable cows get when they need to be milked, they'd say a lot of milk is vegan. The relief mama feels from the pressure being taken away! They get into the stalls themselves. ❤️
🤦♀️ They wouldn’t be swollen and uncomfortable if their babies wouldn’t be taken away from them. Cows do NOT give milk if they haven’t had a baby in the last months.
@@marina_7403wrong, a cow can produce milk for up to two years if milked regularly.
@@marina_7403The baby would be at a much risk of infection if not taken away and taken care of.

I think the fruit the girl was eating directly off the tree was a persimmon. There's a type of persimmon that you can eat like an apple. Very tasty!
There is apparently one that tastes like chocolate but I've never tried it. Would love to though!
It is a persimmon! I’ve had one straight off the vine in Brazil. It’s the most delicious thing I’ve ever eaten. The first one I ever had when I got back home to the states was the biggest disappointment of my life. It was not even close to ripe. 😢 😭
Yes! It’s a persimmon!!!
I grew up eating chocolate persimmons in Brazil, but have never seen them here in Japan.
The chocolate persimmons are very sweet, but they don’t taste like chocolate. I think the name comes from their color. The peel is orange like the others, but the inside has a brownish orange color. It’s delicious.
My mother loves persimmons, but her doctor told her she can only have one a day. She used to eat many everyday during persimmon season.
@@Cmoore-Books There's a species of persimmon from the American South that has to be allowed to overripen, because they'll pucker up your mouth. They're great for cookies and puddings, though.

My mom can not be Vegiterianan, she tried, and she even went to a doctor who was himself Vegan and they went over every little thing she had been eating, she did everything right, but still, she got suuuper sick. He told her that she can not skip the meat and that there is a risk her kids will have the same issue. Now I never tried it as I have multiple food allergies and such so I could not skip it for that reason as I could not get the right vitamins and supplements from other things. People do not believe me when I tell them this. So THANK YOU for saying this!
The Dalai Lama eats meat, also due to a medical condition. He's not happy about it, but follows his doctor's orders. I also cannot maintain a vegetarian diet, and tried twice, 6 months each time, and wound up quite unwell each time. I'm a happy omnivore - trust your body, and eat what keeps you healthy.
I also cannot be vegan. Tried meatless for 18 months and developed several issues. I am back to being an omnivore.
And that's fine, the majority of vegans don't give two shits if you're going to eat meat
A good friend of mine had to become pescatarian due to doctors orders. The only way they manage is to drown the fish in lemon - and I mean drown, they take a bag of lemons from the supermarket with them if we eat out! 😂
I have a digestive issue that makes my stomach refuse to digest my food AT ALL sometimes and we can't figure out why. But it has the MOST problems with plant matter (vegetables, legumes, fruits, fungi, etc). Not so much with certain meats and grains. So my diet is VERY chicken / turkey / fish / beef / noodle / bread heavy right now because of it. I would quite literally be vomiting all the time and die of malnourishment and starvation if I tried (I know I would, because I was on a predominantly plant based diet when I contracted whatever the hell is going on! And I wound up losing over 100 pounds in less than 3 months it was so hard / bad on me!). But people who pressure people to become Vegan don't believe me 🙄 They dgaf about health or actual people.
Just like you said Charlotte, humans are omnivorous animals. Some of us can live a vegan diet, some can’t. I know in the days before iron supplements my great-grandma was prescribed going to the butcher and drinking a cup of cow’s blood once a week to keep up her iron levels. I feel for that girl who can’t keep to her choice, but her body betrayed her. Some want to make the choice but can’t even start. We just need to respect the choices of one another because we don’t know their backstory. I can only hope her vegan friends ask her why she’s eating fish rather than dog piling on her & her omnivore friends don’t go “ha! I knew it” - neither are good options.
Highly debatable if humans are physiological omnivores or not (I'd lean towards not) but it avoids being relevant either way since either way humans are not lions or some other creature that actually needs to harm animals to devour them in order to live...
While it is true that it can be more difficult for some to become Vegan while it's super easy for many others it is also true that anyone can be Vegan if they truly desire it while using enough willpower and intelligence...
Your "everybody is different" reasoning sounds good on the surface but it's unlikely you'd accept it for any other species... For example if I told you every lion is different so some lions need to eat salads , berries and bananas every other day you wouldn't likely buy that story... Nor should you...
I see no need to respect animal abuse... It's not worthy of respect... ;-)

Years ago my aunt who is a vegetarian was reheating some restaurant leftovers for me. As she was stirring my SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE, she licked the spoon before putting it in the sink. She looked at me with eyes like saucers and said "oh no." A few minutes later she confided "I wondered why that tasted so damn good. 😬" 😂😂😂
My friend went camping with his vegetarian brother. He made himself breakfast in a cast iron skillet. His brother woke up after him and borrowed the skillet to make potatoes. His brother kept going on about how they were the best potatoes he had ever had. He thought it must be because of camping and cooking over an open fire. My friend didn't have the heart to tell him it was probably the bacon he cooked earlier in the skillet.

Haha. Love this. People need to chill. I'm a vegetarian and my boyfriend eats meat. I choose to eat how I want for my specific reasons and I don't hold it over his head that he doesn't choose or eat like I do. He is so very sweet and tries to cook things that I can eat and I've tried to do the same for him.
Same here, my partner is also not veggie but he now prefers a lot of my veggie recipes over the meat alternatives, like veggie lasagna.

Both of my sisters are vegan. I tried the ground beef from the brand Impossible at one of their houses, and let me tell you I was shocked at how good it was! It tasted just like ground beef! She did the same thing by adding seasoning like sofrito and stuff, and you couldn't tell the difference! I'm not vegan nor vegetarian, but there are some instances where I can eat a vegan or vegetarian meal as long as it tastes good.
Same. They used the same meat for the Impossible Whopper at Burger King and it’s so good!
Oh you can tell the différence actually... Not saying that is not good but it's not meat.
@@YannLHC I meant I couldn't tell the difference. I'm sure others can, but I didn't because the seasonings my sister used made it taste exactly like the real thing.
I have no interest in the "vegan beef" but I eat a vegetarian meal at least once a week (can't give up cheese and butter). The other days it's usually a meat, a veggie, and a salad.
Even if you like the taste its not good for you. The impossible meat is basically designed to trick ypur body into thinking its eating meat. Not a good idea in my opinion
As a kid, I thought a baby drinking milk from their perant was cannibalism, I was quickly corrected after I called my baby cousin a cannibal at a big family event 😅

Charlotte in the first clip she was eating a Fuyu persimmon. They are super delicious. I was looking through the comments to see if anyone else had commented on it but didn't find any comments so that's what that fruit is. Also tomatoes don't grow on trees. 😂
Yes super delicious have a tree in my backyard and gotta get ripe fruit before the squirrels do. Squirrels like them too.
Was about the mention that these fruits are persimmon. Although it must be told that persimmon must be ripe when you eat them; you can't eat unripened persimmon. And an other issue is picking them all before the cockatoos and parrots get to them. 🐦
Thank you gor this. I have been trying to find out the English name of this fruit for months. They are delicious.
Years ago in high school I had a friend who was a vegan and an interesting lunch mate. After graduation he qualified as an Olympic cyclist. Must be something in those sprouts. Myself, I smoked my veggies.
Like you, I'd rather smoke my greens than eat them.
You're adorable.😉😊😊
I love how when they're literally no options to her available in order for her to sustain her diet people would still much rather Jenna Ortega starve to death
I've literally had vegans tell me they'd rather watch me die than eat an animal to sustain myself. I honestly think most Vegans are sick in the head.
I don't even buy wine. I just visit my second cousin who makes homemade wine for fun! Super cool guy, funny, and loves to travel.

I grew up on a farm having to raise and help butcher the animals we ate, and my friend's dad worked at a meat processing plant nearby our house, so he told us a lot about how things work there too. ☹

The vegan diet is responsible for more death via MURDER by pesticides than carnivores are via slaughter for food.
Think about how many animals have to experience horribly and painfully slow deaths just to keep vegans feed. Don't get me started on their packaged foods.
Also, PLANTS ARE ALIVE. They don't want you to eat them. This is why most vegans eventually stop their veganism. Their body can't handle all the lectins, oxalates, phytates and other various antinutrients. Some may... most don't. Eat steak!

During the pandemic, our grocery store was out of ground beef and they suggested the beef less ground on the app. I bought it and we’ve been eating it every since. My kids like to use it for quick nachos, tacos, sloppy joes, chili mac and burritos. It taste good and they can take what they want out, without having to use a whole pound of meat. It’s an easy way to make sure they are eating an extra serving of vegetables too.
That’s such a great idea. I’m going to try this with my daughter. Thank you!

I had a childhood friend that went vegetarian and after a couple of years she really started having health issues. She wasn't getting the nutrients that she needed to matter how many supplements or different foods she tried. Her doctor finally told her that it was in her best interest to start incorporating meat (fish and chicken were on the top of the list) back into her diet, which she did. It was an eye opener and educational to her, her parents (both were vegetarians most of their lives) and to me.

If you go to any mom and pop restaurants, they don't tell you what is exactly in their food, it's not a chain restaurant that has to disclose all this stuff.
If you are a person that is concerned about what you eat, every time someone makes food for you, you should ask what's in it. Now if they lie to you, that's wrong. But if you didn't ask, that's on you.
Companies will sell products and change ingredients all the time, it's up to you to investigate what you are eating.
I remember my mom making bolognese at home, and sometimes we ran out of beef, and she used ground turkey. I don't look at that as someone "messing with my food." She ran out of beef, and used the vegan beef she had in the fridge.

3:34 - I'm a carnivore, but eating meat in front of a vegan campaign seems unnecessary.
I have a friend who was vegan for 4 years, then she got diagnosed with crohns disease (she had grown up vegetarian so it had always been normal to her) she had to start eating meat because, as she put it "I have so many dietary restrictions, that include so many vegan products, that I had to for my health." Her family still gives her hell over it and berates her for "giving up her on values. "
Sorry to hear about your friend's struggle. I hope she's doing ok. I was vegetarian as a teenager for a while. Since I've been diagnosed with celiac disease, I wouldn't be able to do it anymore. There is so little I can eat and nutrient absorption is low. People really don't understand.
When you grow up like that (like ANY way- not just Vegan or Vegetarian; could be talking about Conservative, Christian, misogynist, etc) it's INCREDIBLY important to understand they're not YOUR values, they're your PARENTS' values, and to not be hard on yourself for going against them. Especially if going against them is actively better for yourself and your own health and safety, or for society or your community, etc.
That is so sad.
For some it really is hard to eat vegan.
I‘m lactose intolerant and can‘t eat raw food or fish. That makes it difficult to eat enough if I can‘t have any animal products.
You know if Jenna Ortega had vegan food flown into the location they were shooting “Wednesday” …. I think she woulda been judged for that too lol. No way to win lol
I'm not vegan but I get down with vegan food!!! There are so many delicious variations out there these days. I'm so grateful my husband enjoys having vegan food as well because that last video made me sad to watch. There's nothing wrong with having plant based options sometimes
The statement about not everybody being able to sustain a vegan diet is on point. My parents are carnivores and I can't follow their diet for health reasons too. The amount of fat they consume makes me sick due to my digestive issues. There are also some plants I avoid eating because they make me sick too. You need to find the foods you can safely eat while also getting the proper amounts of nutrients.

I’ve been vegetarian my entire life too. 40 years. Never spoken to someone else who has.! Nice to virtually meet you! I agree with you. I’m vegetarian because that’s the way I was brought up. My husband isn’t and I cook fish and chicken for him. I don’t want to eat it but I don’t mind that he does.
Edited to add that I have plenty of health issues (a genetic neurological disease) but none of it is caused by never having eaten meat. Never had any problems with B12 either (which is the usual lack in a vegetarian/vegan diet). Vegetarianism is definitely sustainable.
@@jbax5521 I have a genuine question feel free to not answer. Were you ever tempted to try meat just to see what it was like? Or does/did it just never seem appealing?
@@scarlettg.5772 no I’ve never been tempted. I don’t like the look or smell of it. If my husband makes himself a steak I have to have all the windows and doors open. It makes me feel sick. The fish and chicken smell is mild so that doesn’t bother me.
I have 2 friends who use to be vegan who both had to start eating meat again due to becoming protein deficient because of it. One accepted his situation and did what he had to do to get healthy again. He's doing much better now. Just like the girl in the video though, my other friend struggle really hard at first and continue to get sick until she finally caved and started eating for the sake of her own health. However she had a big group of vegan friends who kept filling her head full of bullshit and kept telling her the doctors were lying to her even as she continued to get sick. When her vegan friends found out she started eating meat again they all completely turned on her. She receive all forms of harassment from them for months, some even threatening to harm her. Ultimately this led her to utterly despise the vegan community for how toxic they are and couldn't believe her own "friends" cared more about her eating meat than about her health.
A vegan diet is absolutely possible BUT it has to be very well planned out! That's why it's best to get advice from a dietitian if you want to start going vegan ☺️ side note: protein deficiency can be easily prevented by incorporating (enough) soy products, beans, lentils, nuts and whole grain products into the diet
I know someone that's vegan and he is constantly getting sick and has a grey hue too his skin.
If you know how to cook and choose your meals carefully there won't be health issues
You made a couple of points in your comment as to why I would never go vegan.
1. Humans are carnivores, by nature (canine teeth is too eat meat), and need it to sustain our lives. Sure, as Julia a said, it is possible to sustain your life with vegetables but EVERY vegan I've ever seen as looked sickly.
2. Besides the fact that I would live a completely carnivore life before vegan, they are a freakish cult.
@@juliii_g
And don’t forget that the soy proteins can set you up for breast cancer.
Yes my cancer doctor told me about that fact.
I was working in a shop and a 'vegan' came in and went on to me for nearly 15 minutes about all the stuff they did and what they ate etc.
He then goes off and picks a few items before bringing them to me at the till, two of the items i told him i don't eat as I'm vegetarian. He just said 'hmm it will be alright', he then ate them whilst still going onto me about how great being a vegan was.
I live in India. I am a vegetarian and its very easy here. I have never tasted meat or seafood in my life and hence have never missed it. Not many people understand veganism in India but vegetarians and non vegetarians have co existed quite peacefully for the most part. But I am sure it is a lot more difficult to be a vegan in the West. Not many choices.
Meat and milk lobbies are loaded in the west, so anything going against the actual overconsumption of animal products as it is, they shud down. It's very probably an ecological problem as a whole too : eating locally wouldn't mean eating red meat or fish for most peaple...
Indian food ingredients don't grow in many places outside India. It is not sustainable to import ingredients from another continent.
@@CorgiFan-ti8if Of course, not all ingredients are available but most are. I personally don’t use too many spices and have lived in Europe for a couple of years. It isn’t difficult to follow a vegetarian diet in the bigger cities. Definitely impractical in smaller towns to be vegan/ vegetarian. I agree with your point on sustainability. That is a larger debate regarding even large scale meat consumption
@@SmugCat85 Really now? Do you realize that cereals get stripped of all protein in the West? Cachew production is exploitative. Almonds deplete the ground water. What's left? Lentils, beans and chickpeas? If all I had to eat were boiled lentils with salt, I'd lose all will to live.
i feel so bad for you
Years ago I watched one of those videos where five people who are/practice one thing state their opinions on questions regarding it. This one in particular was five people who were vegan, and at the end of the video one guy and one girl had such different opinions I thought hands were about to be thrown. He was so adamantly vegan, and unwilling to compromise about anything, whereas she was more, “sustainably vegan,” as I like to call it. She said she’d lived in places where there are food deserts, so practicing veganism isn’t actually sustainable there. He could not wrap his head around it. By the end I decided that if I ever met either one of them, she would make me want to try it, versus he would make me want to down a glass of milk in front of him. I love milk, and would honestly cry if I ever had to give it up.
Yes. It’s like how Jenna and Julien make me want to try out their plant based diet far more than that vegan teacher does.
Thank you Charlotte for calling out that plenty of people medically cannot go vegan. I've had numerous vegans insist "anyone" can and argue with me about this. I tried to go veg years ago by starting semi-veg. I was severely anemic within a year to where a flight of stairs caused me to collapse. It's not that I didn't know how to do it; it's that my GI disorders and allergies (can't eat legumes, most veg, half of fruits, gluten) meant that I was trying to survive on too few foods to stay healthy. I cannot maintain my nutrient needs without meat. I think people should certainly TRY to eat veg/vegan meals and I do when I can because they can be AWESOME, but it's a choice and militant vegans need to stop playing internet doctor and assuming all bodies are the same.
Well vegans kill more animals than meat eaters 🤷🏼♀️ But I guess a baby cow is more important than a baby sloth or baby elephant🙄🤦♀️ The poor countries that grow most produce are idiots who destroy rain forests illegally and kill the animals . Then bc they don’t know about sustainable farming, they destroy the soil so badly nothing will ever grow there again... so they destroy even more rain forest and kill even more animals... species have gone extinct bc of this... 🙄🤦♀️🙄 also nothing is vegan as bees and other pollinators are required to grow crops (in fact even if vegans buy only local produce, 100% a bee farm run by humans was involved)
Some people have no idea what they're talking about, are not medically or nutritionally trained but open their big ignorant traps anyway. I have renal disease as well as anemia, so I get where you are coming from.
Same. I just listen to my body, sometimes it tells me to eat meat and other times it tells me vegetables, but because I have some weird health issues my body doesn't function properly without meat. I just don't get all the nutrients my body needs to function, for some reason, it doesn't absorb the right way and I end up catching all kinds of infections, because my immune system just stops functioning properly( sometimes I have 5 infections at the same time). So I just have what ever my body is craving and it helps me feel better and get well faster. Also for some reason my body can only absorb iron from meat, so I need it.
Same
Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude-as far as is possible and practicable-all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment.
My church used to have a Sunday in spring where they celebrated "Good Shepherd Sunday" (all the readings had themes of sheep, lost sheep, shepherds) and they would bring a couple of lambs into the church during the children's time. I was watching from the choir, and said to the lady next to me, "aw, I like lambs,... with mint sauce and peas and carrots..." and the lady giggled and said, "you're going to hell!" 🤣
My mum became vegetarian when I was c 12 and would make two servings of her beautiful spaghetti bolognese, one with beyond meat. Eventuallyshe just used only beyond meat. No issue from us kids, it was still yummy.
It took my dad 2 YEARS to notice! This from a man who grew up on a cattle farm!! 😅
I need to know, how did he notice? Did he find the packaging?
Did you see the video of the Beyond Meat product that was growing mold in the warehouse? No way would I ever buy that product.
I'm not vegan but i LOVE beyond meat. They make those beyond burgers you can buy and they're amazing
beyond meat is beyond unhealthy for you and its full of chemicals.
Beyond is beyond disgusting.
I remember the first time a pamphlet was shoved in front of my child face in London. The pamphlet looked innocent on the front the inside had pictures of Butchered animals, animals that were scientifically tested on. I yank the pamphlet out of my childs hands and gave it back to the person and told them how dare you give it to a child! This child was not even a teenager. The child was seven years old. Thank you, Charlotte.
This kind of happened to my cousin. When she was in 2nd grade in elementary school one of the teachers showed a really graphic documentary about butchering animals and how horrible they are treated. So she hasn’t eaten meat since. For medical reasons tho she will now eat fish and eggs so she’s not fully vegan anymore but that traumatized her seeing that as a kid.
Well they should know. They should see where their food comes from. Maybe then people would reduce their meat consumption and support organic farming that treat animals fairly because the amount of meat consumed cannot be obtained fairly.
That happened to us at Ringling Brothers Circus. Some crazy PETA-pecker scared my 4 year old son and made him cry with her gruesome poster. It showed mutilated elephants and horse, mostly dead, none of which had anything to do with Ringling. I took my son to the area where the elephants were so he could see them being well cared for. In the act, the elephants mostly walked around with beautiful women riding them. They had stopped making elephants perform tricks like standing on hind legs, because that is harmful and unnatural.
@@Arzeena1990 A seven year old shouldn’t know that. That’s just sick to think that you think that! That child had nightmares from those photos. We were out with my husband’s whole family in London having fun with the Grand parent’s and uncle’s/ aunts cousins. My child was the only one that was handed that pamphlet!
There's definitely something to be said about people who can't be vegan or vegetarian due to health issues. My friend was vegetarian for 10 years and her doctor finally told her she had to stop because she was basically killing herself. Since she stopped she's been happier and healthier. It's so hard. We really need to look at how animals are looked after. Even though its still death we can do it in a better way 💖
It can go both ways. My illness forced me to become vegan. My stomach cant handle any animal protein or gluten, so my diet is very restricted.
No one should ever be vegan due to health issues.
@@sstargaze333 Please tell my body or my doctors that.
Not being funny but vegetarianism has been around far longer than veganism (the majority of Indians who are Hindu live a vegetarian lifestyle and have for generations). I see how being vegan can easily lead to nutrient deficiencies if someone isn’t eating a varied diet but being vegetarian and supposedly killing yourself slowly? Ma’am that just sounds like bullshit. Either she was restricting what she ate massively or she wasn’t eating a varied diet. It’s very easy as a veggie to get all your nutrients and protein. This woman was an anomaly or this is straight up a lie
I feel sad when I see the baby cows and know someday I may eat them. I have cut back on meat consumption but yeah, I feel sick if I don't have meat for a few days. I have a freezer full of pork and beef that my company gives us every year from 4H, so I know the animal was treated well until the end.
Feeding the planet wouldn’t be a problem when we could restore 75% or current farmland destined to raising animals! 🌱
My son is allergic to dairy and egg so, we have "veganism" in our home and still eat meat.😂 But have friends who are vegan and there's some dang good vegan recipes for baking. But Charlotte is completely right about not being able to in certain areas. Like even in America, i struggle to find some decently priced vegan alternatives for baking.
I can't have fructose, so trying to go vegan for me would be dreadfully sad and depressing. No fruit at all, and various different veggies are out too, like sweet potatoes, bell peppers and sweet onion!
Careful Charlotte. You don't want to bring the curse of that vegan teacher upon you 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Especially after what she did to KallMeKriss. That was brutal and totally unacceptable. The Vegan Teacher is a bully and completely unhinged.
@@erinpurdey can't stand the woman. Others have had their channels banned for far less
@@erinpurdey Kris handled it so well but I genuinely couldnt get through the second half of her response vid because I was so disgusted with that woman. Its clear the VT is in this more for her own ego but I'm almost glad in a way that shes advertising how horrible she is, even if Kris shouldve never had to hear that
One of my best friends has to be vegan for health reasons, she’s severely allergic to red meat and even poultry and fish can trigger a reaction. I’m not vegan due to medical reasons. But with VT, my friend has said, “She makes me want to eat a burger out of spite!” “Em…” “Yeah, I know I’ll be sick all night. But I’ll still do it!”
You know it’s bad when the person who has to be vegan wants to eat meat because person is so awful
Legit... She is such a mean and nasty human being and Charlotte doesn't deserve or need any of that!
As a vegan, the vegans who are constantly yelling about it, acting like they’re better than everyone else, gives the rest of us a bad rap. I literally cried for the girl who ate the fish because that’s my nightmare. And the guy at the end who lied and said it was bad when he found out it was vegan, is something I deal with all the damn time. I used to lie to my dad that I bought my pumpkin pie at the store because he saw me using tofu to make it one year and said he’d never eat it again because it had tofu (to replace eggs)… but when he thought it was store bought he’d eat half the damn pie! 😂
Also… breast milk from one species to a baby of the same species is vegan. No discussion needed 🤣🤣🤣
Also… my cats eat meat. Just sayin.
Where comes that saying that vegan don't feed theirs pets with their true diets ? Those rumors makes no sense..
@@lisamartin9831 there was some lady who made the news for only feeing her cat veggies and her cat was dying from malnutrition because of it. She ended up going to jail for animal abuse and her cat got better after being fed their proper diet. Because anytime one vegan does something there’s a huge amount of other people who say all vegans are like that. So I’m guessing a lot of people just started spreading the rumor that all vegans do this.
I literally had a friend of 23 years tell me I was wrong for not feeding my cats meat… but that’s literally all they get unless they steal bread or veggies… or my vegan chicken nuggs, for some reason they love those and spinach 😂
@@shannond818 I just fail to see how a vegan who is all for treating animals better would do this to their own pet, like make it make sense I guess haha
@@lisamartin9831 yeah, makes no sense. 🤣
i wish vegan were like you understanding and not wanting to force it on no one just like me i dont force my believes on anyone or what food i like b/c everyone has there likes and dislikes why cant we all get along with eachother
Vegans don’t have to go around yelling at people for eating meat, and meat eaters don’t have to go around mocking vegans. It’s simple. Just choose what’s best for you and don’t force anyone into your beliefs.
I’m a vegetarian, my family (except for my mom) is full of hardcore meat-lovers lol, my boyfriend loves meat… and that’s fiiiine. I love cooking and they try my veggie options every now and then and love it, but I won’t force them to quit enjoying THEIR life just to accommodate my beliefs/feelings.
Well said!
2:28 Chickens eat cooked chicken, you're standing up for cannibalistic birds
Saying that about your dad, dude made me tear up.i remember my grandma telling me about eating cactus and dirt to stay alive. Bro I'll defend the hungry because put a person " vegan" in extreme situations and trust me you're gonna eat what you can find or what's available. El hambre es muy cabron 😢
Even wolves eat fruits such as apples and vegetables such as pumpkins in the wild. I was very fortunate to work directly with grey wolves and created a recipe for them - pumpkin leather. If you ever see a dog snack with that name and the motto “taste tested and approved by wolves but still loved by your dog!” It’ll be me!
And foxes love blackberries. In the berry season I find fox spore that is just chockful of blackberry seeds.
Buddy's throat probably hurts because he scraped it with the fork SHOVLING that spaghetti in 🤣🤣🤣
the girl crying over the fish but wearing mink eyelash extensions really gets me
My sister can relate with the vegan having to eat fish for health reasons. My sister was vegan for years, was taken suppliments and all that, but her doctors said it's not enough and strongly recommended salmon. She did, and notice the change in her body actually needed it. So yeah, now she's a Trex like myself.
It sounds like she wasn't eating a balanced diet and the doctors recommended the only thing they knew off-hand to provide the nutrients she was missing. Of course, doctors aren't nutritionists and they probably didn't realize that they were better options available to her.
Some people truly do need animal sourced nutrients. Personally I feel that it is the majority of Humans. It's hard to argue against biology.
I cry when I eat fresh salmon because at the price I don't get it enough.
10:30 every milk is breastmilk if you think about it long enough
just sayin'
(pls no one take this too seriously, tyyy)
One of my aunties is a vegan. Shes very sweet and doesn't care if we eat meat in front of her, she even bought us non-vegan food for when we stayed the night at her place.
Thanks for bringing up the reasons why its not always practical to be vegan, or even vegetarian. I recently switched to vegetarian for health reasons. For me personally meat causes a lot of inflammation and makes my anxiety disirder worse. But i also travel a lot, and sometimes, like for jenna Ortega, the vegan and vegetarian options just aren't available especially in cold climates. Its much easier and sustainable to be a vegan somewhere like Florida or in the carribean where theres a huge variety of plant life with Ll the vitamins and minerals you need than it is to be in northern Russia or Mongolia where you can only sustain yourself with meat cheeses and milk and whatever else is available especially in the middle of winter. You can still stick to primarily vegetarian or vegan and maybe have meat or fish once or twice a month when you need it. Do whats best for you. Ive seen peoples health improve on veganism and ive also seen people's health improve on a carnivore diet. Do what works for you and eat what is available to you.
The anxiety comes from the cortisol in the meat. Most animals don't live in natural conditions. Quite the opposite actually. They are standing in dark halls in their own shit with no space to move. It is absolutely horrible and they experience severe stress and have enormous amounts of cortisol in their body due to that, plus a lot of them are not dead when taken apart my machines. Cortisol is a hormone that does not last shortly like adrenaline, it is in the body for much longer. And when you ate it you put in in yours.
@@evelynzucker907 thanks for the info. I'd like to like to learn more about this.
@@loryndabenson2118 It is so extreme they found cortisol in animals hair. These animals are as depressed and desperate as a living creature can be. That's why I don't like these jokes about vegans and vegetarians. A little empathy for living creatures people think are so far below them they can treat them like crap and make fun them, would not hurt. It's shitty to make fun of the few people who do care and maybe know a little something.
@@loryndabenson2118 Plus these huge animal factories are relatively new. They have only been around since the 1960ies and people think this is normal, because they have only been there for the few decades in which it has become popular to make a ton of money of cheaply produced meat. It is anything but normal, meaning anything but the right thing to support. And animals don't have a voice. They have no say in any of this. The few people who speak up for them constantly get ridiculed and thrown into one bowl with crazy woke people, because of a couple of idiots you find in any movement.
@@evelynzucker907 i definitely believe you. I'm very sensitive to people's and animals emotions without even touching them so it makes sense that's eating them would be contributing to what was making me sick. I would try to buy grass fed or only eat cleaner free range chicken outside the US when we travel but i noticed i would still get really anxious even after eating fresh caught fish, although that could possibly be a guilt thing making me anxious as well 😩🫣. I do cheeses still sometimes as it's easier for me right now but i would like to eventually transition to dairy free as well (with the exception of having no other options when traveling)
Laughing at the husband in the last clip. Apparently the sauce was so "bad" he at the entire plateful without complain or question. Then, when his wife shows him the package, it was suddenly bad, lol! Sounds like she hit him in the ego. Reminds me of the Karens who go to a restaurant, eat their whole meal, then says it was terrible and demands a refund. People are so funny!
Right he knew he liked it, but too much pride in saying that smh
I completely understand people who are vegetarian or vegan. No problem, several of my family members were and are. I used to host holidays a lot at my house. I put tremendous time & effort into making what amounted to 2 full meals. I was extremely careful for instance, when making Thanksgiving stuffing to use vegetable stock (versus chicken stock) to make a simple stuffing. But, it's not right to get all over another person for their choices. I have a sibling who is not only vegan, but extremely picky! So, I would make a pasta with broccoli, garlic & olive oil specifically for her - in addition to an entire Turkey or Ham or whatever. I can get behind other people's choices, as long as they don't knock my own. Friends used to say (this is a while ago, so...) "oh, use chicken stock, they'll never know..." I would NEVER do that. But then, don't complain to me that I made a Turkey too because the rest of the family is wanting it and expecting it. It can be costly and time intensive to cook 2 separate meals for a large group. I was always & am always happy to do it. And I am fortunate that my relatives who were/are vegan or vegetarian trusted me and would compliment the meals I prepared. We should be nice to one another, & not get angry when others choose differently.
So let me get this straight. You wouldn’t use chicken stock basically chicken broth because it was from chicken bone.🤔🤨 isn’t that irrelevant because there’s no chicken in it there’s no meat in it it’s just broth hmmm
This is why every family get-together on my side is basically a potluck. Everybody gets something to eat; everybody eats what they want.
So do the vegetarian/vegan family members offer meat dishes when they host?
@@dotar9586 I don´t know where this idea comes from that we have to eat meat every day. Vegan dishes are suitable for everyone, so why should there have to be another option.
@@Vixen743 it's not vegetarian! Jello isn't either
The only way breastfeeding is 100% vegan is if the mother is vegan herself because whatever you eat or drink, goes into the babies system as well. A friend of mine found out her baby was allergic to shell fish after going to dinner and then breast feeding her infant.
I asked my partner to have a veggie based meal for 2xdays a week (for healthy eating reasons), you would have thought that I asked for him to eat poison 2 days a week! ☠️😂😂
I know that I will probably never be a vegetarian or a vegan (I love food too much) but if you want to be, be one but don’t try to force it on other people especially a stranger. You just need to have a nice, open conversation. I had a friend become vegetarian for one year and I remember asking why she was (having a nice, civil conversation). That year she came round mine for my birthday bbq and I remember my mum bought some halloumi for her as a way to accommodate. My friend was not expecting that. It made her day. 💞💞💞
Really does make us feel good when people do stuff like that for us. I usually bring my own food so I don’t end up hungry, but if someone thinks about me enough to have something for me already, makes my day ❤
I like the last story, because it’s kind of how I’ve started approaching cutting out having meat for dinner every night. Just using plant based options to replace the stuff I don’t mind. Tbh plant based mini corn dogs take the guilt out of corn dogs for me, and they are AMAZING! Walmart has them, lol 🤤
I work with several vegans. All of them are nice and don’t judge anyone if they eat meat. There’s always some crazy Karen in every group type.
So, I was on this diet called the hallelujah diet. Created by these two Christians. I am a Christian, but the ONLY reason I tried it was because I was going through a very very difficult heart situation, undiagnosed condition. Heart would go up to 300 bpm. It was a STRICTLY vegan diet, with a very pricey cookbook with very pricey recipes. I mean, the recipes were outstanding, very good recipes. But, I couldn't afford it. After being on it for 3 months, absolutely nothing changed for me. I lost not one pound, my heart did not improve and I was weak and depressed. I ended up getting the worst migraine I ever had, I guess from detox, and I couldn't bare it. Ate a piece of cheese while crying in the bathtub and the migraine went away. I didn't have good health care during that time. After while, I was able to see a cardiologist, who referred me to MUSC in Charleston, SC. Had a thing called a tilt table test and was FINALLY diagnosed with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome. Which is why my heart has had problems since I was a teen and why my feet and ankles would swell since I was a teen too.
I can relate with having undiagnosed hear condition. From 2016-2022, my heart rate was so high even just sitting. It was to the point I could not even walk fast. To make matters worse, I also was anemic due to iron deficiency, so that gravely exacerbated my heart rate and anxiety. I would be asleep and wake up crying due to high anxiety (almost on a daily basis I thought I was going to die). Last year, I was FINALLY diagnosed with tachycardia but this year we're still trying to find out the cause of it.
Both my daughters have POTS! They can go a while without any issues then all of a sudden have symptoms all the time. My youngest also has Elhers Danlos syndrome. A lot of people with EDS have POTS.
Gosh are you all right now?
Sounds like a herbal life scam
@@bridgetkleyn9600 I am on 80 mg twice a day of propranolol and I have to drink pedialyte a lot and eat salt. Overall, the heart issue is doing good, but Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) causes so many more problems I'm still trying to deal with. Thank you for asking ♡♡♡
Last guy reminds me of my husband when i added some things to a pasta dish and he was upset saying i had to ruin it and he reluctantly asked me to make it that way again next time 😂
Lmao my husband ish does the same thing. I hide veggies on him often and then I’ll make the same dish again without. He’ll tell me the other was better and I’ll tell him what I added differently. He always calls me a liar and says he doesn’t believe me, but I over heard him talking to his friend about it and how I’ve been opening his eyes to flavors and veggies he didn’t even know he would like. He doesn’t like canned. And honestly, who really does?! I think that was most of his issue. Canned unseasoned processed food. Yuck. Lol
I made lasagna once with ground turkey instead of beef. The whole time we ate, my husband kept saying it was the best lasagna he'd ever eaten. After we were done and I told him it was turkey, he acted like I'd tried to poison him. LMAO
I made the viral alfredo spaghetti, where you use an alfredo base mixed with spaghetti, and the red meat sauce layered on top in a baking dish, then sprinkle mozzarella cheese. (Did fresh parm and Italian seasoning on top too.) I used the exact same meatless crumbles in it. Only time I’ve tried a recipe from a short.
I couldn’t get a blind reaction, since I was plating up mine, and husband was caught off guard. So I had to confess. Even with him knowing and being skeptical, he loved it! So did I.
I was a lacto ovo vegetarian for 6 years. Once diagnosed with the auto-immune form of diabetes, (Type 1) I became a pescatarian and ate seafood again, to lower my insulin needs. I still mostly eat like a vegetarian, adding shrimp once or twice weekly. Occasionally, I eat tuna, cod, pollock or salmon.
Despite this, I never pressured my husband and kids, and cook them meat separately. I gave my kids the choice. Maybe once or twice a month they’ll have a meatless meal unintentionally, as it is just the dish. Like the way I make a hybrid of chili and the goulash my parents made growing up, without the meat, which we unoriginally call chili-mac.
I did like meat, once upon a time, especially a medium rare New York strip. But now, I don’t think about it. The switch has been flipped. I never ate shrimp even when I ate all meat, as the texture bothered me. But with the ease of thawing and cooking it, I made myself try it. And now, I LOVE it.
Either way a person goes or somewhere in between, I say to each, his own!
HAH! My hubby is the same! I used to add veggies slowly into dishes and over time he's come to love them. I honestly think it's a stubborn man thing lmao
It reminded me of a story my Mom told me about when her and my Dad had started dating and she made dinner for him ( Venison aka Deer) now Mom knew how to make it just right to be able to pass it off as pork chops. Now my Dad said he would never eat deer..... Well Mom waited until Dad had cleaned his plate and said 'You just ate deer, Dear,' she said. Imagine how shocked he was but was glad he didn't know about until after.
“STOP EATING CHICKEN!!” “You’re wearing a leather jacket”
“Well you see it’s very old so that makes it different” 😂
Previously owned leather is a grey area/topic for most vegans. Some give it away to charity and some keep the items because the harm was in the original purchase (the demand). Once that has been done there is nothing a vegan can do in that situation. It's a personal choice. Message is still the same - compassion and kindness to animals where possible in your circle of control.
@@Clairelyhereforveganburgers With all respect, that should not be a grey area. It seems like an excuse, because you can still choose not to wear the jacket. I remember long ago I was working in a hotel. There would sometimes be leftover food from a function that the hotel would not just throw away. It would go to the staff cafeteria. By the same reasoning meat from this leftover food would be a grey area for vegans too.
@@Extremaduur I don't really see how you could think it's an excuse. Our mission is to reduce animal suffering on this planet. If you turn vegan after you have already bought items with leather it does become a bit of a moral dilemma and everyone is going to deal with it differently because we are all human with our own lenses on life. Bigger picture is none of us want animals to suffer, be considered a product or used in industries as if they mean nothing or their pain is nothing. They deserve rights because they are sentient.
@@Clairelyhereforveganburgers If you are principled as a vegan you choose not to wear a leather jacket. If as a vegan you stand outside a KFC in a leather jacket and are scolding KFC customers, then you have lost all credibility in my eyes. But that is just my opinion. You are entitled to yours, of course.
@@Extremaduur I can understand your perspective. It does remind me of people who try to encourage kindness and forgiveness while also discriminating against others' lifestyle. I can see how it doesn't really help our cause but like with every social justice movement you have a wide variety of people (gender, age, nationality etc) and within that each person is going to have their own take of how it should be done. Everyone's lens on life is different. Doesn't mean the message is wrong.
I was pescatarian for 15+ years. I never told people what to eat or what not to eat. I even cooked meat for others. Now I eat meat for health but I only eat humanly raised. It wasn’t easy going back to meat but now I couldn’t go back to not eating meat.
