    Glad to see another vegan parent on here too! Our whole family is.

      I’m the only vegan out of the 4 of us but I also do most of the cooking, so they do end up partially eating vegan a lot. It’s a bit fucked up when I make a spaghetti sauce and use TVP or Impossible grounds and then the cover it in cheese though.

      It also sucks because my partner really isn’t great at cooking(she’ll even admit it) so sometimes like when we have burgers, I have to intervene and help her so at times it feels like a losing battle. She’s supposedly anarchist and won’t even vegan up. sadness

      Funny enough, even at our scouts meeting that was last night, they were covering nutrition and was like “Meat is protein. Meat is protien.” 1984 and I wanted to be like, “Plants also have protein. In fact peanuts, soy beans and lentils are the most dense protein foods when comparing price and calories, etc” but like I said, I’m trying to mask and be a normie.
