Vegans have been the punchline of countless jokes online for years. "What do they eat, dirt?" And, "How do you know somebody’s a vegan? Well, they’ll tell you within seconds of meeting you!" But the truth is that vegans are a seriously misunderstood group. They only make up about 1% of the population, and despite what you might have heard, they aren’t all militant, aggressive, and angry. They just don’t want to harm animals!
To prove that these herbivores have a sense of humor just like everyone else, we took a trip to Vegan Memes World on Instagram. Below, you’ll find some of their funniest posts that might make you giggle whether you’re plant-based or not. So enjoy scrolling through these pics, and be sure to upvote the ones that inspire you to have a meatless Monday!

Fact. Just add garlic, orange juice, and a James Martin amount of butter.
My mother went straight from "they'll ruin their feet with those heels" to "they'll ruin their feet with those trainers". At least she's shut up about my birkies now.
They are for now. In a few months the cow will be bigger and the dog will be bossing the cow around.
I go for the French fries and I am NOT complaining. Maybe im not even vegetarian...maybe i just reaaallly like potatoes and that happens to be both 🤔
I'm not vegan, but I have a vegan family member. One holiday, I made vegan brownies to bring so she could eat them. My vegan family member, my husband, and I were the only ones to eat them. We had a lot left, and we couldn't finish them all, so I told my husband to bring them to work (I was working from home). He did, and they were gone almost immediately. One person left a note in the empty pan: "10 out of 10 stars. Would vegan again." 🥹
Uhh, it should be noted that this restaurant resumed serving meat and fish in August of 2025 after being Vegan for just over 4 years.
I don't mind doing this at all, I consider it polite to the host. Of course, I'm a bit more creative than simply hauling over a watermelon.
I cannot imagine why any one would give af what someone else eats? Vegan or not
Or you could just mind your own business and not try and not try and influence what other people eat. I am vegetarian, that is my choice, I will never try and tell other people to become vegetarian or vegan. As part of my job, I advise people on how to eat a healthy diet but I never try to steer them to one particular diet, I simply produce a diet plan that caters to their preferences, whether it is vegan, vegetarian or includes meat.
Seriously though I don't understand that. If you don't want to eat meat why do you want it to taste like meat? I just want someone to explain that logic to me.
Fun fact: I became lactose intolerant in North America. In Europe, I had some issues but never zeroed in on dairies. Turns out: cow milk produces milk proteins called casein. Two kind: casein A2 (the original one) and casein A1 (a mutation, some thousands years ago). I'm allergic to casein A1, which is more common in North American cows. Sheep, goat and buffalo don't have the mutation at all and I can drink their milk or eat their cheese or yogurt no problem, despite the lactose. Obviously soy milk even less.
I think that the emphasis on being a 'pure' vegan is not doing anyone any favors. So the product contains a trace of milk powder? Unless you have an allergy, it's still a massive improvement on the product that is 50% animal products. Perfection is the enemy of the good. When studies are done on people who profess to be strict vegans, a shockingly high percentage of them have knowingly eaten animal products in the previous week.
Eating dairy is not vegan. Do whatever you want, but it is what it is.

Ultra- processed vegan items are still ultra- processed and not healthy. Just learn how to prepare your vegetable proteins like you learned to prepare your meats. Source: Tried an Impossible Burger. Tasted good.Texture was OK. 30 minutes later my gut felt like I chugged a gallon of vinegar. Why? Because burger?
I think everyone needs to get off the food police train. I don't care what you eat, I don't care how you like it cooked, none of that is my business. No is it your business what I choose to eat or how I like it cooked. Mind your own plate not everyone else's.
