Mudsimus Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 That's how discussions are started. Quite often the opposite pole of your view might come across as non constructive.I've been following this thread from the beginning, and I'm still not convinced that any vegan dish can taste as good as a proper lamb curry. And I still giggle when I read about nut cheese. But I find it interesting non the less.
Odinson Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 I've been following this thread from the beginning, and I'm still not convinced that any vegan dish can taste as good as a proper lamb curry. And I still giggle when I read about nut cheese. But I find it interesting non the less. You won't know until you try. Why not try this recipe for a no-lamb curry: https://delightfuldeliciousdelovelyblog.wordpress.com/2014/06/04/easy-vegan-spicy-lamb-curry/
Odinson Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 Here's Chris Packham putting it more succinctly than most. It's Brit centric but applies equally. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/feb/03/veganuary-vegan-food-farming The second-to-last paragraph is rather good. Good opinion piece. Regarding the "ultra-vegans", like I've said before, there'll always be outliers. They shouldn't dominate your thinking. Saying you're not going vegan because of Peta or some other loudmouth is the same as saying you're never going to touch a bike because of Lance Armstrong. ****'em and just do your thing. That's my approach. cfcjim 1
forkie Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I didn't say no vegans aren't allowed, I'm not vegan myself. but he seems to come in here to bash everything and not in a constructive way either. much like an atheist popping into a thread about religion having a go for the sake of having a go. sounds a lot like a certain vegan i know....

Uni Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) That's how discussions are started. Quite often the opposite pole of your view might come across as non constructive.discussions involve discussing, ... refer to Patch's approach.... ie. constructivebut anyway that's not what I'm here for ... as you were.

fanievb Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I made this yesterday as race food (always looking for "cleaner" food to use) suffice to say, it wont last long enough for me to try during a ride. https://simpleveganblog.com/3-ingredient-raw-cacao-bites/ (*I used mixed roasted nuts and cocao powder) Odinson 1

But we added a little water to help our little baby blender do the job. We've now had a tub of refuses-to-harden soup in the fridge for a week!

On that woolies had a little (must have been trial) pack of goji, date and cacao balls. Not the 3 pack in stores now with the activated charcoal and rubbish but smaller and slightly different balls. DELICIOUS!

Odinson Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 Some vegans a little pissed with Hyundai over their Super Bowl ad... https://www.businessinsider.co.za/hyundai-sees-vegan-backlash-over-super-bowl-ad-2019-2 It's a good ad. It's sad that the Marketing Dept. of Hyundai wanted to rag on vegan food, but whatever. This also aired during SuperBowl: Carl's Jr new Beyond Burger (no, it's not vegan if you take it with the cheese and mayo). https://youtu.be/vhv7WfalZvc
Mojoman Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Isn't America home to most of the worlds population of fatasses?Maybe a few vegan meals would help them over there....!
Chris_ Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Isn't America home to most of the worlds population of fatasses?Maybe a few vegan meals would help them over there....! Its actually not anymore. I looked this up a while ago because I also remember the US was the most obese and SA was 2nd or 3rd. Or so I thought. Turns out there are a bunch of Pacific islands that are top of the pops. US is around 20th, SA around 40th. I was very surprised.
Uni Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 This morning's brunch.Tofu scramble, roast potato (could've done without that), roasted mushroom and cocktail tomatoes and avo with a vegan mayo So good. Odinson, Escapee.., Imploder and 1 other 4
