Vegan wedding

[Babysharkdoodoodood]

Would it be asshole-ish of me to smuggle babybels in my handbag?

The menu looks very tiny, and I don't intend to eat it in front of anyone, just find a dark corner. It's the only meal at the whole event.

I did think of peperami but it's vile and stinky.

OP you’d most likely be able to get pork scratching from the bar at the reception 😁

If I had a big breakfast I could easily go until the wedding breakfast without eating anything but I’m well aware that others can’t. Different metabolisms and all that. If someone feels the need for a snack in between, there’s nothing wrong with that.

Its too much to expect them to actually think. 😂 They just sound pathetic. How embarrassing.

Pork scratchings are the boyo 😁

Nobody cares.

@Fears and that's exactly why people find vegans so irritating and sanctimonious!

Well done for being so stereotypical, it's so refreshing.

I can honestly say is absolutely untrue, our Homo Erectus ancestors increased their brain volume cc substantially through the consumption of meat, all apex predators are carnivorous/omnivorous, our Homo Sapien and Neanderthal European ancestors survived the Ice Age eating nothing much besides meat until around 9000B.C when agriculture was created (and the glaciers) had subsided. Also, as someone with a Biomedical science degree, I can say the human species is omnivorous in the same way that dogs are. We are mostly actually carnivorous as we are unable to produce the essential amino acids that are found solely in animal products. Where as plant eating animals can produce these themselves. Our teeth, gastrointestinal tract, metabolic enzymes, ability to survive purely on meat and the fact that the only single food group you can survive on is animal products is undisputed evidence we are not plant eaters or even close to being that way inclined. Not to mention Vitamin B12 is only found in animal products and without this you will die, fact. Humans have managed to fortify non-animal products such as bread and cereals with Vit B12, but of course this isn't an argument for human physiology as it's man made and we can only base true physiology in an environmental scenario where we didn't have technology/before modern technology.

Apologise for the rant but I see this all the time and I have no idea where this rubbish is being fed to people from.

@LuckySantangelo35 because you Otho k you're right and you're not?

No but they need to eat something. Especially at a wedding which is a very long day, potentially with alcohol.

If you think there’s not enough on the menu to fill you up for that one day
and if it’s a vegan wedding
why not bring vegan snacks….fruit for example

👏👏👏

Said it better than me.

You seem like a stable individual.

Oh yeah a pear is soooo filling!

Well yes,
But why does the item OP takes to the wedding have to be non vegan.
Whats wrong with a vegan snack.

@Kandalama they're shite and bland and I'm an adult and will eat what I like?

Vegans do not dictate to me and the wedding will not be spoilt by a babybel.

Why should they though? I’m sure they won’t be flaunting it in people’s faces?

It’s fine to take a non vegan snack if you’re discreet. The hosts are vegan and therefore serving a vegan meal. That doesn’t mean guests are required to be vegan themselves all day.

Banana is more filling I suppose, especially if you bring ten OP 😄
Im sure there’s loads of other vegan snacks

If I felt upset about a babybel I'd reevaluate my life. Been vegetarian for 25 years and couldn't imagine being upset about a piece of cheese.

I think we’re living in crazy times when people are so picky and spoilt that they can’t cope for a few hours without a specific food.

People talking about bringing ‘snacks’ to weddings in their handbags like they’re going on an outing with a toddler really need to grow up.

I love meat, fish and dairy. But I can also go without them for one day of my life because I’m a fucking adult.

Would the people saying they’re inflicting their belief system on OP feel the same if they went to a Jewish wedding which was Kosher or a Hindu wedding that didn’t serve beef? Surely when you go to an event you respect the hosts belief system?

Sorry? This thread is clearly 💩

I’m not vegan btw.

Secret Babybels would be fine, IMO.

I would have to take a block of cheese as a snack. 😅

I didn’t say they shouldn’t.
I wondered why the snack couldn’t just be vegan.
Happy for OP to give a reason ….allergies…..will drop dead if don’t eat meat/dairy every day…… feels put upon and doesn’t agree with vegan weddings…….is morally against vegans……???

OP is asking for opinions, we are giving her/him different opinions. Isn’t that point of the thread. No obvious right or wrong here.

The answer to "vegan snacks are bland" is not "Babybel".

The bland leading the bland.
