    This made veganism look bad. I can assure you that giving this lifestyle a chance is not at all even close to this. The first step in becoming vegan is getting educated on it and being open minded.

    • @gabizunigaa
      @gabizunigaa 9 лет назад +35

      ***** lol, no it's not. It's the healthiest diet one could possibly follow. I would suggest doing some research on it if you'd like.

    • @gabizunigaa
      @gabizunigaa 9 лет назад +18

      +NimbleBlood If humans are carnivores, then how come they get arteriosclerosis? I was under the impression that carnivores are imune to it.

    • @H3lloKayla
      @H3lloKayla 9 лет назад +16

      +NimbleBlood Please stop being sooo bloody closed minded. I was vegetarian from the time I was 12 until 24 and I became vegan in the beginning of the year. My blood tests are perfectly fine and I know people who haven't eaten meat their entire lives and they are healthy. Also to quote someone "When you go to a hospital please find me a ward that's full of vegans". Most people with all the major illnesses such as; diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol all eat meat. Even cutting down meat consumption increases your life span, that's why Japanese people live longer because they eat minimal meat and mostly vegetables so you can imagine that a vegan diet is even healthier.

      ***** I think you mean atherosclerosis. :) Build of up fat in the arteries. Arteriosclerosis is the hardening of the arteries as you age... which I'm sure would also be lessened through a high carb vegan diet as you'd be lovely and hydrated all the time. :D

      Exactly!! If your tired that is because you're not eating enough or not eating the right things, its definitely not due to eating a vegan diet. Protein is not the main provided of energy anyway so that wouldn't be the reason..
      However its not their fault they think that way, these are the ignorant views drilled into people by society and the meat and dairy industries.

      The vegan diet is to blame,Carbohydrates makes you full. Once you have a high intake of carbohydrate rich food,It would make you stop eating hence causing the probability of losing out on some nutrients or maybe calories.

    • @jemimabrennen2580
      @jemimabrennen2580 8 лет назад +35

      Brandon Padwa No.. Veganism is about understanding why you're choosing not to et animals and they byproducts and why you don't wear animal skins and use makeup and other products tested on animals. It's about their well-being, about the environment and the people. Veganism is not just a diet, it's a stand against violence.

    • @brandipityha9457
      @brandipityha9457 8 лет назад +4

    Separate comment: Why do people not berate you if you eat McDonalds every day, but as soon as you say you're vegan/vegetarian everyone becomes an expert on protein consumption and overall health? I don't get it.

    • @daffodilZephyr
      @daffodilZephyr 9 лет назад +3

      +Hannah Maris The majority of the people who live in developed countries who can go to a Mcdonalds go there because it's convenient and affordable. While I don't know anyone who eats Mcdonalds everyday I do know that I live in tourist area and the cost of living here is extremely high. Most people spend the majority of their time working, this means most kids parents are working. As sad as it is, it's just not easy to sit down and prepare an entirely veg. meal. And I live on an island so veg. restaurants aren't a thing, and if they were most people can't afford it everyday.
      To put it in perspective (where I live) a cheeseburger meal costs 7.99 and 1 mango cost 4.99... you can imagine how big a bill it would be to buy enough fruit and veg for a large family. (and on a minimum wage salary)
      I wish more people had access to fresh fruits and vegi's for a reasonable price when supermarkets literally throw out perfectly good produce by the ton everyday. Ironically, we have the ability for people to eat healthy foods, but nobody has the money to buy them :(

    • @thehonesttomomtruth610
      @thehonesttomomtruth610 9 лет назад +13

      daffodilZephyr I know not everyone can afford being a vegan. Being a vegetarian is hella cheap though. I made 7 black bean burgers for three dollars where beef is seven to twelve dollars. I'm more bothered that people don't berate drinkers, smokers, junk food eaters as openly or nearly as much as vegans.

    • @IssaMichaelis
      @IssaMichaelis 9 лет назад +5

      I find it a bit sad how they went into this with closed minds, I feel that their reactions and opinions would've changed had they been more open-minded. They were quite negative to begin with, so I didn't expect them to really get what being vegan is about. I do agree with you that it's off putting that people think it's okay to give you health lessons just because you eat a different way than they do.

  • @florance333
    @florance333 9 лет назад +626

    They didn't like being vegan because our society is built around animal consumption, so they felt deprived. Also, they didn't know how to be vegan properly, they didn't know how to cook delicious vegan food or to eat the required variety so they wouldn't feel tired. Basically, if you've been an omnivore your whole life you won't successfully convert to a vegan lifestyle overnight. It's a gradual process for most people because it requires such a major change that it can't be accomplished all at once. I'm still in transition to becoming fully vegan, but I love discovering new recipes and things to eat, that I've never heard of when I was an omnivore. And the most important point is that we aren't vegans for ourselves, we are vegans for the animals. Cheese and meat may be delicious, but we don't feel that our gastronomic desires give us the right to abuse and kill animals, when we can have a balanced and healthy plant-based diet. You can comfort yourself with the myth of "ethical" farms all you want, but there is no ethical way to kill someone who wants to live and no ethical way to keep in captivity someone who wants to be free. Farm animals have no protection against animal cruelty because they are already as good as dead, and their only value is as a resource to be consumed, not as a living being with feelings, emotions, and intelligence.

I think of the poor animals that were abused, taken away from their mothers, lived their whole life in fear to only be killed , shredded up, and eaten not be thought of again. People don't think twice of what they eat, would you eat your cat or dog? No. I am vegetarian but I don't agree how animals are treated and then put to death

    Jen i love you but there is no way to ethically eat dairy. Cows only produce milk when they are pregnant and just after being pregnant (much like humans). Therefore, you must keep them pregnant and keep taking and killing their babies to keep them producing milk. In many ways this makes the dairy industry EVEN WORSE than the meat industry.
    This video just made me sad. Now they are completely turned off from this amazing lifestyle because it was not presented to them in a good way at all. I'm so sorry.
    Why the hell didnt they show them a documentary on the WHYs of veganism and have someone LITERALLY TELL THEM WHAT THEY CAN EAT OTHER THAN RICE AND BEANS BECAUSE THEY CAN EAT SO MUCH WITHOUT HARMING ANIMALS.
    I'm sorry I dont mean to yell.

      Kattykat49 They were disrespectful about it because they went into it with what seems like zero to very little knowledge of vegan food options and didn’t take advantage of vegan restaurants or vegan cooking. They were all sad that they couldn’t have ice cream when there’s tons of amazing vegan ice cream options at most grocery stores. Ben and Jerry’s has vegan ice cream flavors. Like Peanut Butter and Cookie which is literally amazing and I’ve tricked many people with it. They never would have guessed it was vegan. Being vegan isn’t just about eating fruits and vegetables and beans. There’s so many options. So many. And these people complained about being hungry. If you do veganism properly there’s no way you’d be hungry all the time.

    Being a vegan isn't really that hard. Once you thoroughly educate yourself on the meat and dairy industry you WANT to remove yourself from the act of eating meat and dairy. Veganism isn't only a healthy way of life for your body, but it's also a movement. Veganism for me is much more than trying to be healthy, it is having compassion for the animals of Earth and wanting to help the environment.

    The thing is though, I don't eat tofu, soy, vegan meat, etc. I stick to whole grain pastas, whole grain bread, fruits, veggies, potatoes.

    I actually went vegan bc I'm severely allergic to dairy but my lupus and RA were both out of control. After going vegan my breastmilk supply nearly tripled, my 8 month old son is in the 90% percentile for height and weight respectively, so obviously the quality of my milk is great, my joint pain has lessened enough for me to go off of my meds and use yoga and heating pads to maintain, and my lupus is in remission. After losing a kidney at 15 and being in so much pain I couldn't get myself out of bed or use my hands at all I was desperate to try anything. Now I manage my symptoms with a healthy vegan diet, I'm able to gain weight and am now almost 90 lbs, I'm able to lift weights and run and do yoga, and I'm able to work and be a mom without nearly as much pain or struggle. This diet honestly did things for me I had completely lost hope of ever having, and my single kidney is in such good shape I may not actually need a transplant. I recommend that everyone at least tries a more plant based diet as I would never tell anyone to completely eliminate things, but even just eating MORE veggies and greens causes such a significant change that in my experience it's completely worth it.

  • @makennah23
    @makennah23 9 лет назад +399

    This really portrays veganism in a negative light. It was upsetting when the one woman said she felt restricted in her eating. They should have given her more information beforehand. Veganism is not supposed to be restricting, really you can eat pretty much as many whole foods as you want and not have to worry about weight gain or feeling ill. Also it seems like they weren't made aware that there are vegan versions of the things they were craving, like cream cheese and ice cream. They taste just as good as their nonvegan versions. It's very unfortunate that they didn't go about this in a better way. 😕

    • @makennah23

If you're an omnivore you can eat anything that's edible (even if it's nasty albeit), if you're a vegan so many of your foods you could eat or usually eat are off the table. Not saying that's bad but I don't see how you were upset. Think of any restaurant that isn't specifically vegan (remember a lot of places don't have vegan restaurants). What is the food everyone always gets?

    This video was so frustrating to watch, I wish they would have taken the time to actually get educated on what veganism is all about. Most people just think vegans eat lettuce all day and judge people who eat meat. And yes of course there are vegans who take it too far with comments and say hateful things, but so do people who eat meat. But in all reality, being vegan is one of the most selfless things you can do, for the planet, for animals, not to mention for your loved ones because you are keeping yourself healthy, which means you are able to enjoy life with those around you, not being plagued with illness and enslaved to taking medication. The only focus in this video was the food, and the food they chose to eat was so boring and bland and unappetizing. Vegan food can be delicious if you put the effort into finding recipes (which hello, Pinterest). If Buzzfeed ACTUALLY wanted to "find out what veganism is all about" then the outcome of this video would have been completely different. :/

      ***** you're right, hens do lay unfertilised eggs. But the problem is the conditions they are kept in for the majority of factory farms. The reality is that in order to keep production consistent with demand they have to farm hundreds of hens together, so often they cut their beaks off with hot blades to prevent them from injuring each other, even 'free range' hens. I'm not denying that there ARE farmers who treat their animals well, but the majority don't and its hard to make that distinction as a consumer.

    Who should drink whale milk?
    Baby whales
    Who should drink human milk?
    Baby humans
    So who should drink cow milk?
    Human??? No. Baby cows.
    Getting milk from a cow means that the female cow has to be kept constantly pregnant so she will lactate. So they shove cow sperm up the female cow so they can meet the demand the industry has. And no meat is "ethically raised" up the animals are slaughtered for human consumption. That is in no way ethical. These are just excuses so non vegans can feel ok about they're diet. Even when they actually are contributing to animal cruelty.

    I'm a vegetarian aiming to be vegan. People, animals know what death is. Pigs are incredibly intelligent and other pigs are killed in front of them. Elephants, dogs, lions, whales and many other animals mourn the death of a family member. They know what death is just based on survival instincts. Death isn't a matter of metacognition or intelligence, it's a very primal part of the brain wired to live at all costs. Chew your arms off in order to live, we're no different than animals.
    Secondly, it's freaking awful for the environment! Even if you don't care about animals, it is such a major waste of resources in addition to all the meat grocery stores and homes throw away every day.

      Hannah Maris Nope just going by science, your dog's love and affection is really just learned begging behavior. Its cold and it doesn't sound nice but your dog can't comprehend the term love let alone know how to show it, its just descriptions we put on their actions.

      Kenny Bushway From CAT Scans, dogs react with joy and happiness receptors when they smell their humans. When one of my dogs passed away, my other dogs showed all signs of depression and tried to fit her large self under the cubby where my deceased dog used to nap. She did this for weeks.
      Elephants and whales also mourn the death of their young.

    • @kennybushway7446
      @kennybushway7446 9 лет назад

      Hannah Maris I haven't seen or heard of these CT scans, again you have to have the ability to actually recognize the emotion in order to have it. The reason its not said, that beyond pain receptors, animals have definitely our emotions is because there is no way to tell, they don't have the cognitive ability humans do. Also we guess based off our own experiences and what we think that these animals mourn the death of their young, it just very well be something else.

    • @thehonesttomomtruth610
      @thehonesttomomtruth610 9 лет назад +1

      Kenny Bushway So because you personally don't understand them, that means that they don't have emotions? Even if they didn't, which they do, that's no reason to put a living being through severe pain and in front of other animals.

      Anna Leona as a person who has grown up on a cattle farm my whole life and is a part of the ffa. I know that there are good regulations on meat in stores are required to follow otherwise they get shut down. Also there are some negative effects that come from not killing animals, especially if they are suffering from disease or an injury. Antibiotics can only help animals so much before it is necessary to kill them humanely. If you still dont agree with that then try hunting. Because even though it is still killing, you know how the animal has lived, you are helping not only that animal's population but also the environment as a whole, and you know personally what happens to the animal when it is killed and after it is killed. We will all have different opinions, but all of us must know each and every fact before coming to any conclusions.

    • @catherinebell8149
      @catherinebell8149 7 лет назад +41

      Lampasas FFA Band Just because something is legal, doesn't mean it's right. Slavery was legal. Now we are enslaving animals.
      And if we believe we are entitled to take a life simply for our pleasure or because that way we "know" how the animal lived, we might as well also kill dogs and other pets, because we knew how their life was.
      Nature regulated animal populations before, so it'll be able to do that now as well. Therefore there aren't any negatives to not killing animals. No suffering, no poisoning ourselves, and no destroying the planet.

    • @ChaoticButterfly
      @ChaoticButterfly 7 лет назад +4

      Umm... we DO kill dogs and other pets, usually when they're old and/or sick, and living is too rough for them.
      Nature regulated animal populations before humans because there were other predators who controlled them. However, guess what happened to most of the predators? That said, nature's regulating the wild pigs down in the South REAL well (not really), so much so that they're destroying miles of land because they are walking wasteland creators, and the natural regulation of Lionfish in the Gulf of Mexico is going BEAUTIFULLY (also not really), as they kill off local species because they have no natural predators, there.

    Can we stop calling this a Vegan challenge, please? Vegan's understand that eating animals and animal secretion is detrimental to human health and to our planet. Vegan's aren't forced into this lifestyle, it's one that we choose based off of our love for other sentient beings that we share our planet with.
    In the strictest sense of the word, vegetarian food doesn't have meat or include animal products. That's why people who consume dairy products and eggs are known as "lacto-ovo vegetarians" and not "strict vegetarians."
    When people only eat vegetarian food, they're actually strict vegetarians. They don't have the title "Vegan" unless they have an ethical reason not to consume, wear, or use animal byproducts or products that test on animals. True Vegans are Vegans for life, and not for a trial period.

    • @JamesBrooksE
      @JamesBrooksE 9 лет назад +6

      It's time to start calling these vegetarian challenges, because it's obvious that they don't understand animal cruelty, "sustainable" farming, or why someone would choose to accept a Vegan lifestyle.
      And just for the viewers information, there is no such thing as "humane" animal slaughtering. If we don't kill humans for their meat, yet we do it to other sentient animals, then by definition it isn't humane. It's time for people to adopt a Vegan lifestyle to benefit themselves through good health, and the world.

      The fat that it is fried in is a byproduct. If you wanna help animals and the enviromenr it doesn't make that big of a difference. The best is to stop eating animals because then less animals are slaughtered and it becomes more expensive for companies to use animal products. So they'll start using plant oil. For your health tho. It does make a difference. So it's up to you how vegan you wanna be.

    This is such a bad example of veganism and they really should've spoken to a longtime vegan not just a nutritionist cause if they're aren't vegan they cant give the best advice. If you eat normal amount of calories then you literally cant get a protein deficiency. You can have awesome foods that are vegan lots of biscuits, crisps, and sorbet, and other stuff.
    There is a protein in cheese (casoprotein) that humans metabolise into caso-morphine, meaning its literally addictive, it has that so the calf will return to the mother to drink more
