I respectfully disagree.
It's a lot of habits that you must break, a lot of flavours that you must forget. There is a lot of amazing vegan food, but the vegan version of what people know is often a pale substitute. You might convince people with curry, but likely not with vegan sausage.
I think that it's more realistic to get people to massively cut their meat and dairy consumption than to really go vegan. Do what you can, but cheat sometimes.
In other words, I think it's better to accept that most people will get halfway there, and to make that easy.
- myshpa 3y agoWhere I live there are many new plant-based junk foods every year (not something I'd eat every day or week, but useful and welcomed sometimes). Just in the last year I've had some plant-based bacon and sausages that my SO refuses to eat for being "too meat-like". > I think it's better to accept that most people will get halfway there Agree ... stepping stones. > a lot of flavours that you must forget A lot of those flavours are spices, and methods of preparation. Have you tried eating raw meat or unsalted cheese?
- nicbou 3y agoI'm just culturally more familiar with meat prep, that's all. I've had my mind blown by good vegan food, but it was very far from what I was exposed too while growing up. I think that's the idea. We need to get more people exposed to good vegan food. Someone get Jamie Oliver!
- myshpa 3y agoThere are many good vegan restaurants, even some with Michelin stars. There are vegan tv cooking shows (check youtube). There are thousands of sites with good vegan recipes. Even Jamie Oliver has 160+ vegan recipes on his site :) https://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/category/special-diets/vegan/ https://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/category/special-diets/v...
