/ck/ - Food & Cooking

What is it about avoiding animal products that causes people to become incredibly smug and annoying? Is it just a few bad actors ruining their reputation as a whole? My friends and I can be discussing anything food related when our one vegan friend just HAS to interject with some vegan bullshit about how protein is actually bad for you or how eggs cause cancer so it's good they're being price gouged. I used to be a vegan myself but never felt the need to lecture people about it, hell most people didn't even know unless they straight up offered me meat. Does it just draw narcissistic people who always feel the need to prove they're somehow better than everyone else? I guess avoiding meat would be a pretty easy way for a narcissist to get off and view themselves as superior.
