      Obligatory “not vegan” but it’s hilarious to me when people ignore this.

      Why do you think we cut down trees? Yes, more farmland. Farmland for what? To feed the cattle lol

      While I agree with the idea of going vegan for the environment, it is unfortunately an unattainable diet for many people on the planet. It is not cheap to be vegan, even though with the wealth of technology and advancement we have it should be.

          It is hard to believe that you are paying 20% less on a vegan diet and getting all of your required nutrients to remain healthy considering the cost of nutritional supplements and foods required for a healthy vegan diet.

              Generally when people can save 1/5th of their grocery bill with something that is also great for the environment, and can do it in a way that keeps one healthy, people share that information for the benefit of others.
