Nobody said being vegan is easy; it takes a certain level of self-control and preparation to live up to your ideals. One accusation that is often leveled at vegans is the way veganism converts eulogize about the benefits of their dietary choice, while most of the time scolding others for their 'unorthodox' meat-eating decisions. While it usually comes from the right place, wanting others to feel as good about themselves as the vegans do, it can be a bit grating for meat or dairy eaters who just aren't interested in the whole vegan diet thing.
Surely there's a more natural way to spread the message of vegan food goodness? One that's unpretentious, self-deprecating and easily digested? Why yes, vegan memes of course! We here at Bored Panda have collected the best memes that vegans can seriously relate to, and maybe even pass on a few to their friends who don't get it yet.

I'm pretty sure they mean like "vegan meals". If someone says "I've never had Chinese food", you don't go like "You've never had RICE!?"

Here's the thing though, we're not going to give up meat because we had one vegan dish.

I told my mother-in-law the new vegan dish I created and she just rolled her eyes. When I asked what that was about, she responded with a joke about how there was no meat in it, how could it possibly taste good. That's when I dropped the bombshell of the Chocolate Latte Cake I made for Christmas that she scarfed down...totally vegan..and Gluten Free. "Did it taste good?" She got quiet. I told her "We aren't doing vegan for the sake of the animals. We are doing it because our health was so bad, we needed a different way to eat so we wouldn't die. Do you think that's funny?" She apologized. After that..she gave us nothing but support and even started learning how to cook vegan.

Vegan Easter Egg
Vegan Meal Options
I think this picture illustrates many of the misunderstanding between vegans and the non-vegans. Vegan food is more than a meat-dish bereaved of animal products. Anyone claiming that vegan food cannot be tasty and healthy (regardless of continuing to eat meat or not) either has not experiences well-prepared vegan food or is simply closed-minded.

Tell Me The Relevancy Of It
I'm a vegetarian with known food allergies to nuts and several types of bean. If I had a dollar for every time a vegan purposely added allergens to my food, I wouldn't need to get generic epipens.

a lot of beers aren't vegan. Animal products are used during filtering.

I enjoy eating meat, not everyday of course, but I don't want to become vegan. I understand that other people want to be vegans, but I hate it when they lecture me about meat eating and try to convert me. I leave you alone, why can't you??
Moral superiority. The overly vocal ones are those who think they're better than you because of how they live their lives. Most vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters just want to quietly get on with their lives, but it's the nasty, arrogant ones you hear the most.

But the second you tell me why I SHOULD be a vegan, we have a problem. I don’t believe many vegans fall into the stereotypical “militant aggressive” type, but those that do ruin it for other vegans. Same as meat eaters.... we’re not all jerks about it, but those that are ruin it...
Like the people who are so anti-vegan they go like "F**K YOU I'M GOING TO EAT ONLY MEAT"? I don't think anyone should be reactionary like that, but you REALLY shouldn't have a reactionary DIET!
Load More Replies...Being a vegan is like belonging to a particular religion, it's your choice and it suits you. Problems arise if you become militant and try to force it onto others who have other views.
if you think meat and dairy called suffering, environmental degradation, it’s important to educate others
