@Kruxxt698 @peta Most animals, including humans, can eat a mixture of animals and plants. What names we give eating habits is near useless. What really matters is humans have ethics, shops and the knowledge that a healthy plant based diet is good for us. Leave animals off the plate.

It's my 68th birthday today. My wish is peace for all the animals needlessly sent to slaughter every second of every day. I can't say sorry enough for my fellow inhumane beings.

Vegan: I take a b12 tablet because it is a cheap insurance policy. Non-vegan: I take cholesterol lowering and high-blood pressure tablets so that I can continue to devour meat without falling over dead.

It isn't important to win or lose a debate on veganism. It's having the debate in the first place, aka keeping veganism high on the social media radar. In the words of the immortal Oscar Wilde, "if there's one thing worse than being talked about, it's not being talked about."

@LLSqueeze Vegans by and large didn't stop eating meat because they did not like the taste. They stopped because they did not like the inherent cruelty to the animals, associated health issues or clear damage to the planet. So if they can mimic the taste that's fine.

Would cheese be so popular if the salt was removed entirely? For example cheddar has more salt than a packet of crisps. With the "ever popular" halloumi having the highest salt content. Why isn't salt content labelled on cheese, as it is on crisps?

When discussing veganism, all you're going to get are excuses for people being selfish. People will jump around from one excuse to another after the first fails. Repeat. Be aware when they lose they'll ignore the loss, thinking just having raised the issue is enough.

A vegan "diet" can be healthy and usually is. But veganism does NOT mandate any particular diet. Eg a vegan can choose a raw diet and that can be challenging, eg oxylates, for some people. Veganism mandates to NOT exploit animals where P&P. Choose your vegan diet wisely #wfpb
