Vegetarians are happy at first, until they see me just devour a whole chicken once a month, then they give me the side eye lol. Vegans don't like that I eat dairy and eggs. Carnivores get annoyed when I have a meal of "rabbit food". I seem to annoy everyone ๐
I dunno, to me it's called having a varied diet and it's normal. Where I grew up, that's what you ate. Mostly plants, dairy from the cows/goats/sheep, eggs from the chickens. Then sometimes, the village would slaughter a goat, and you had a party and ate as much meat as you could because it doesn't preserve well.
Food is a weird thing, I find people care a lot about what I eat for some reason. It feels like I'm not following some unspoken rules or something
rabbit food one is my favorite lol
I think if you're getting eggs / milk / anything from animals who aren't mistreated, that's like 99% of the way to being vegan. For eating a slaughtered animal, if it had a good life that's like 80% of the way to being vegan :p
Food is extremely important to a lot of people, it's something to look forward to after a long day, a place where they can talk to people, a time when they can relax and feel calm. Anything that changes that can be scary for people, which is why I just say reduce what you can, don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
I don't think anyone in the carnivore space would be annoyed at you eating what you choose to eat. If you're healthy, why would it bother anyone?
