What I read is that you believe being vegan is being privileged (which to an extend is true, because usually it’s the more educated population that also tends to be vegan).
But the reality is that vegan food is cheaper for the same nutrients. And that despite meat and milk being havily subsidized.
Vegan food is not available everywhere. It also provides less flexibility, more effort involved in setting up your diet. If education were such a big factor, i would think vegans would have more self awareness in how they try to provide information and talk to others. Also, just because vegan food is inexpensive where someone is doesnt mean it is everyone. Most important is availability. There are a lot of people who don’t have access to it. I’ll tell you right now someone getting in my face being all aggressive is going to make me ignore them, doesn’t matter their message.
Ok, so so you’re saying me that somewhere 200g of meat is cheaper than 200g of tofu? Because an average meal is pretty much vegan except for the protein, if you cook with oil instead of butter (which is also cheaper).
But yeah, no matter what I say, you’ll claim it’s wrong, mainly because you’re not really interested in anything but spreading your words. Which is fine, have a nice day.
No he’s saying there are places that can’t get 200g of tofu. So it would need to be imported which would make it cost more than 200g of meat. Also, often times, those places that don’t have 200g of tofu, the people living there grow and eat their own livestock. I personally know of Mexican villages that don’t have a grocery store within 150 miles. So like you’ve already been told once in the thread, check your privilege. I’m happy that you’re happy about your dietary choices. I’m also especially happy for you that you have the opportunity to make those dietary choices. Not everyone can.
