Welcome to /c/vegan and congratulations on your first steps toward overcoming liberalism and ascending to true leftist moral superiority.

No omni apologists or carnists. Babystepping is for libs, and we're not here to pat you on the back. Good faith questions and debate about how to fight for animal liberation are allowed.
No advocating violence to any species for any reason. If you think this is negotiable GTFO. This includes but is not limited to animal testing, slaughter, and mass euthanasia. Anything that promotes speciesism or the commodification of animals will be removed.

What raw vegan ingredient would you describe as "the food of the gods?" Do you eat it cooked, raw, or both? (hexbear.net)

I'm wondering because last night I was thinking about how, to me, garlic is the food of the gods. And I just ate three small cloves of garlic raw.

What a kick to the taste buds.

I just watched someone picking any mushroom they can, with an expert to help them know what is and isn't edible and I'm like, "I have to go there(all the way to China) after a rain and pick mushrooms to eat with an expert one day!" And my boyfriend said, "Y'know you can do that anywhere(it rains) right? There are mushroom experts everywhere."

That blew my mind. I thought mushroom hunting was this unreachable dream of mine, but maybe it's more tangible of goal than I thought.

You should definitely do that, it's the most amazing non-harmful way to "hunt" and an endless source of dopamine for all the senses.

At least here we have local mushroom clubs/unions, I belong to one. They do a lot of activities and teach others about all things fungi. Always be very very sure you know what it is you are picking and eating, I would start with the safe easy stuff like yellow chantarelles.
