75 Vegan Dishes So Stupid, It’s Hard To Believe Anyone Thought They Were A Good Idea
Plant-based cooking has come a long way, and these days you can make vegan versions of almost anything. But, like any type of cooking, not every experiment is destined for success. Sometimes a recipe sounds much better in theory than it does on the plate, and the results can be... truly unforgettable.
That's exactly what today's collection is all about. We rounded up some of the internet's most questionable vegan dishes—from bizarre ingredient combinations to presentations that are impossible to ignore. Whether they were kitchen experiments gone wrong or bold ideas that simply didn't pay off, these meals certainly got people talking. Keep scrolling, Pandas, to see the vegan creations that left the internet equal parts amused and bewildered.

I see loquats! I love loquats. I have a loquat tree in my backyard that I raised from a sapling. It produced a huge crop of loquats this year and I made 6 jars of loquat jam! It was awesome. I love that tree. But loquats and cantaloupe as a "vegan option" is sad and insulting :(

This Non-Stick Pan May Be Giving Me Cancer, But At Least It Also Doesn't Work
LakotaWolf (she/her) 3 months ago
OP says: "Shredded potato + salt + green onion, mixed together and then pressed down into a non-stick/oiled pan. Ideally, should come out a cohesive pancake. Still tastes good if it doesn't." Looks pretty good tbh!

Okay so I come from India, and half of all Indian food is vegan by tradition. India has truly amazing options for vegans, so I consider myself lucky to be here, considering my allergies and intolerances. The food these people ate is really very sad. It’s pathetic that some people don’t try enough to respect other’s diets.
LakotaWolf (she/her) 3 months ago
I'm an omnivore who loves meat, and I quite enjoy well-made vegan dishes. There is a vegan restaurant in my town that makes absolutely amazing, delicious food. And we have a family-owned Indian restaurant in town that has a lunch buffet on the weekends that is fantastic. A lot of the dishes they put out are vegetarian or vegan. I'll likely never stop eating meat, but I can absolutely respect AND enjoy vegetarian and vegan foods.

For everyone’s information: all fruits and vegetables are vegan. Pasta is vegan. All nuts and seeds and beans are vegan. Bread is vegan. Hummus, baba ganoush, tomato sauce, pesto are all vegan sauces. Most traditional Indian curries are vegan. All kinds of fried potatoes, etc are vegan. Dark chocolate is vegan. (I am not vegan. Just educated.)
