Vegetarians !

Me and wife are veggie, not vegan. Couldn’t live without dairy or eggs. I’ve been a convert since 2018 just because we were sick of cooking 2 meals all the time. Wife has never eaten meat, even as a child. It wasn’t about the welfare of animals, she didn’t like the taste and texture of meat. The consciousness around meat eating came later. Nowadays it’s so easy being a vegetation because of the Vegan spike. You’ll find all sorts to eat now and to be honest a lot of it is getting better all the time.

Both of our kids eat meat, that’s their choice as it is for everyone else. I’ve never been a fan of the OTT vegans who want to force it on you.

You can eat dairy if you want, Vegans won't

I cut meat out for health reasons and it really helps me.

I cook a lot of my own food. If you eat lots of the frozen Vegetarian items then you are eating plop. I can basicaly eat what anyone else does, I just substitute the meat for a meat free item. Loads of choice out there. Why not try having a vegetarian day once or twice a week and see how you get on with it. I won't go vegan, but I do eat vegan once a week.

Im not a big fan of quorn mince tbf, the crispy nuggets are good though. If I make a chilli or bolognese, I prefer to use the tinned green lentils.

The thing with the substitute meats is that a lot of veggies have different ideas of whats nice. Ive never took to the quorn substitute chicken pieces either so if I make a pasta or stirfry I just use vegetables instead of trying to substitute meat.

Other stuff ill use paneer or Halloumi/feta. Like others have said, there are a lot of choices out there now so just slowly find what you like

I'd rather be dead, my son went Vegan last year to please his girlfriend, what a miserable life they live. Every funeral wake, wedding or family christening we all attend they sit there with a bag of crisps as nothing off the buffet they can't eat.

Point and laugh at them.
Throw bits of meat at them and shout insults



They'll be gluing themselves to the motorway next

The wife is. Although she's a good one ... Happy to cook meat and not preach about her hypersensitive beliefs.

The major drawback is that as a couple you find are invited to fewer things by fewer people who can't be arsed cooking two dishes where, if everyone weren't so fussy, there'd be one.

Then again we now live in world where 8f you ask a crowd of 6 people if they want a cupoa you expect yo follow 6 different recipes for tea with different amounts of sugar sweetener, milk, no milk, soya, oat milk. Ffs ... I've stopped asking.
