If you are vegan, you aim for a whole food plant based diet.
Palm oil and any other refined oil or food has no important place in this diet.
Anyway, people must eat something. Replacing one crop by another does not change enough. It is time for efficient food production (indoor, GMO,...) that does not waste air, water, land, plants, insects and other animals like traditional outdoor agriculture.

- gepi79 9y agoI have never heard about a vegan who does not care to eat healthy. Besides I wrote "aim". Maybe a vegan junk food based diet including large amounts of refined oils, sugar and candy is common among vegans and I do not know about it.
- WalterSear 9y agoI know plenty. Fwiw, contrary to popular stereotypes, vegans don't tend to have that much in common other than the ethical choice they've made. It makes for really subpar meetups and online groups, I"m sad to say. No one has all that much in common, other than food - the preferences and priorities of which, as we are discussing, vary from person to person. Well that, and generic, somewhere-left-of-center outrage at the current administration.
