I did start caring more about animals after I went vegan. I was never frying ants for fun, but I also never got sad about petting zoos, for example.
So hey, maybe it’s more common that people adopt a moral system that makes meat seem less like food no matter how they start out.
Yes, of course that would be the case.
We come pre-built with a TON of instinct that initially drives our behaviour but we can override those with some information and effort by our big brains.
Perhaps I should have said it differently. After decades of being a vegetarian, I went plant-based for the environment, then fairly quickly went vegan, because I started caring about animals a lot more.
I don’t know if that’s just as obvious, but I was definitely surprised.
What's non-vegan about pasta?
Semolina flour and water? Is that not the ultimate vegan food?
I think OP was referring to what goes ON said pasta
A lot of pasta sauces have butter in them, personally my favorite pasta sauce is a homemade tomato sauce by Alton Brown (https://altonbrown.com/recipes/pantry-friendly-tomato-sauce/ ), it's vegan even though I'm not.
I usually do a double batch once a month (more or less, depends on how quick we use it) and it fills up 3 32 oz mason jars with 4-8 oz extra. It's amazing on pasta, pizza, eggs, burgers, meatballs, pretty much anything that's good with tomato. Cheaper and tastier than buying jarred tomato sauce by far, plus you can make it as chunky or smooth as you want by how much you blend it. Only costs a few bucks to make too.
I think my blood is 50% noodles by now, I frickin love pasta.
You forgot cheese?
If you cut out all of the pastas that have eggs, cheese, butter, milk, meat, shellfish, or fish (anchovies) then you’re cutting out the vast majority of restaurant pastas and the majority of pasta recipes you’ll find in recipe books unless they’re specifically vegan (restaurants or books).
many sauces require some sort of meat, cheese or other animal products (eggs, etc)
That's not the fault of the pasta though. ;)
Skill issue
Depends how you handle it! I live off a diet of party poppers and fireworks, and I think it's a blast.
@bridge nothing as fun as abusing animals ammirite
Vegetarian diet could be animal cruelty free.
Marinara pizzas are awesome. And I'm not even vegan
GIVE ME THE PIZZA, PRECIOUS
