"Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals."
~ The Vegan Society, 1944

It's not natural period

To each their own but I can't stand the vegans that try to put others down for eating meat

Nature is kill or be killed and has been since the dawn of time. Everything eats everything else.

Being "natural" is not an indicator of "good" or "bad".

Cyanide is natural. Eyeglasses are unnatural.

Maybe pick better metrics for society.

I didn't say it was good or bad. In fact I said you shouldn't judge others from partaking in natural things. Wtf does cyanide have to do with eating to survive?

And you're proving my point. You're the one judging veganism or non veganism as "good or bad".

Calm down - noone tried to take away your glorious piece of dead flesh.

Yeah several vegans actually do though. Just like those Christians that try to force religion down your throat.
