And people always forget. "Why do vegans go on and on about it?" Because we want to be able to eat? For my stag do, my brother forgot THREE times to get me vegan products. THREE. And then complained because I "mention it too much"...I just wanna eat!

How do you know someone’s not vegan? Don’t worry, they’ll tell you.

I respect animals but I want to keep eating meat, so I tried looking for, you know, more ethical farms.

The best I could find is a chicken that lives a year before it's slaughtered (compared to 60 days or less for factory farming), roams and isn't caged.

It costs 8-12 times more than the cruelty chicken.

God damn.

Have you tried impossible type meats or even lab grown meat? I’m not sure how easily you can get the lab grown stuff or if it’s inexpensive enough for decent folks.

My previous comment should suggest that I look for healthy, natural products.

Impossible burgers is Ultra Processed Foods. Famously even South Park made an episode about it.

Lab grown meat will be the same (because it has to be cheaper than meat to be produced on scale, and because even if it starts healthy it's quality will inevitably go down to make as cheap to produce as possible)
