@blkstarseed yeah I know an old vegan/vegetarian place that used to have menus with stuff like that, barely any of it remains. I think the modern hype is using your self-hatred around your weight to justify buying exotic ingredients and making incredibly small overpriced and underfilling portion sizes. Everything uses unnecessarily hard to find ingredients as substitutes for normal shit you can get affordably to the point where they actively brag about it. I just wanna make it clear to these people that I am **not interested** in a $20 entree that doesn't even sate my hunger pangs and is basically a checklist of ingredients that should never have been imported. Even if I'm not paying! It is the epitome of lifestyle diet crap, as these places try to cater to every diet fad at once, with all the weirdest most needlessly expensive ingredients. I hate this so much. I just needed to vent. Gonna have to run off and get a seperate meal for myself at some point so I can actually get calories...

This is definitely why people hate vegans. I hate it so much. It feels like fasting, which I don't do for medical reasons.
