A vegan too Far

From the Idiots Covered in Fake Blood Department A vegan who practices extreme veganism, a plant-based freak of nature, one, who in our book, goes too far even by liberal standards, using aggressive tactics, ones that are pushy, obnoxious and intimidating in an outrageous attempt to gain attention, and in so doing, persuade the meatheads … Continue reading A vegan too Far

Bummed out in Veganuary

IMO, worst month of the year! Cold outside with spring nowhere in sight. Post-holiday blues at an all-time high, Christmas bills due, tired of the same old vegan meals. Looking for something positive to lift me up. I'm not alone, says the wife, as if that will make me feel less bummed. But wait! There … Continue reading Bummed out in Veganuary

From the Reasons For Going Vegan Department With commentary by Dex. There has never been a better time to embrace the vegan lifestyle.

A plant-based Dilemma

My wife is a carnivore and I am vegan. Does this mean we are incompatible? No, of course not, we met this way and still fell in love (I thought I could change her mind later), but there’s a lot of compromising and accommodation involved. Each couple facing this dilemma needs to work things out … Continue reading A plant-based Dilemma

The Mad Magazine of the vegan World?

Or is the Vegan Swamp destined for obscurity? Are we just another unknown wanna-be vegan blogger trying to be different from the vegan foodies?

Cats love Vegans

Because they SMELL good! But Meatheads sometimes don't smell so good, especially close up! Just ask a person who only eats plant-based, whole-foods and they will agree that vegans have little to no offensive odors. Before the commercialization of meat products made it more available to the masses, it was easy to identify the more … Continue reading Cats love Vegans

The woke Vegan

What is woke? A racial slur? An invention of the cancel culture? The slang word 'woke' has grown from an 'awareness of the truth taken in the context of our history' to represent an excuse for needless rioting and destruction. Spun off by some woke politicians as progressive activism. When a person's livelihood goes up … Continue reading The woke Vegan

The gluten-free diet Cult

I always suspected there was something off about all this gluten-free nonsense. It just makes no sense to me that some people are so quick to jump on these dietary fads for no legitimate reasons. They are happy to force the food industry to adapt at great expense just to pacify those who need a … Continue reading The gluten-free diet Cult

Time to tickle a vegan funny Bone

How can you tell if someone is vegan? Don't worry they'll tell you. Why did the vegan cross the road? To tell somebody else that she is a vegan. The hardest thing about being vegan is waking up at sunrise to milk the almonds. You'll never have a beef with a vegan. He was so … Continue reading Time to tickle a vegan funny Bone
