Yes it did say how to tell someone they arent vegan, wasnt a misprint.
Theres someone my parents know whos so radical they make PETA people seem like carnivores. If someones depressed shell only talk to them if they protest daily and are vegan, otherwise she has to educate them on their evil ways. Ask her the time and her response would be You are vegan right? You know all the bad things that happen to animals, heres some literature and if theyre lucky she might remember to tell them the time. Mention that you went to a fast food restaurant (not even saying what you got) and she says that its rotting in your colon. Ask her (or dont) and shell tell you that shes vegan.
Anyway, this gives you a general idea of what shes like, some of you may even know someone similar (or be that way no big deal really). But heres the interesting part: she eats eggs, dairy, honey; and her favorite restaurant is Outback Steakhouse (she loves eating all the vegetable plates, potatoes and the like without any special order -> which means theres some meat byproducts [bacon, beef fat] in it); she has leather belts and shoes (current purchases).
So how do you go about telling a person thats so radical that shes barely vegetarian (like a newbie), let alone no where near vegan? Any suggestions?
Shes driving my mother crazy with all her contradictory claims. Im vegetarian mainly due to allergies (although if I had to kill my own food, Id have been vegetarian a day after I learned to cook), but shes even annoying me.
Any input would be useful.
