For every obnoxious preacher there will be a counterexample. I personally know like 3 vegans and we've barbecued together even. Each eating their own thing. None of them preached to me. And neither did I. Maybe begged for a sample when their stuff looked particularly good. Especially the mushrooms. Oh! the mushrooms! In this case maybe your friends are the obnoxious preachers. Perhaps they feel guilty for eating too much meat and she reminds them of it?
