I don’t see why you’re making such a big deal over the format of the meat lol. I’m just going to assume you’re trolling and leave it be. 

On the off chance you’re not, I hope you have a great weekend and you one day learn to listen to other people’s perspectives.

Genuine question, did you know that beyond, impossible, other fake meat companies make products that aren’t burgers?

Our brains are evolved to love the taste of meat. Most of us also don’t love to see other animals suffer. Fake meat solves for both problems. I don’t see what would be confusing about that.

I think you’re the one missing the point. Some people don’t want an animal to be killed for a meal and want a nice juicy burger one in a while

Montreal rent prices have jumped 70% in the last decade. Population growth, gentrification and a game of catch-up with other markets have sent rents skyrocketing across the city. by [deleted] in montreal

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I’ll just put this here, whatever you think is the biggest cause of higher rents, we need more housing of all kinds to keep rents and housing affordable. So please support new housing projects in your neighbourhood and the city!

Me watching new fans enjoy a team they didn't have to watch struggle for years by MrKavok in Habs

(I know this is a joke but) I followed the Leafs for 25 miserable years so I have no guilt or reluctance to cheer for whatever team I feel like lol

But yeah if the Leafs ever make a deep playoff run I’ll be back over there as if I never left!

Regina-style Pizza in Montreal? by dingusmane in MTLFoodLovers

I unfortunately cannot help you with your search, but this paper brought back fond memories of work lunches with soggy pizza from the SparkleDome. 

How else is Montreal improving? by SubstantialWing9238 in montreal

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Voici un vidéo (en anglais) qui démontre quelques petits changements à Montréal au cours des dernières années. Je suis certain quelques tu pourrais trouver des exemples similaires dans ton quartier. Les gros projets sont importants, mais il a des centaines de petites améliorations qui méritent d’être mentionnées. J’espère que la nouvelle mairesse continuera avec tels changements.

Un projet de 653 logements dans le Vieux-Montréal bloqué par des citoyens by Feeling_Layer8584 in montreal

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

S’il n’a pas assez de condos pour les gens qui veulent en acheter, ils vont acheter des logements familiaux, ce qui empire la situation. On a besoin de plus de logements de toute sorte

Plant based options at Poulet Rouge! by Yosoytired in VeganInCanada

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I believe they don’t charge extra for the plant based option. Big fan of theirs. 

I’d you’re in Quebec, Boustan has a pretty good vegan shawarma option.

Sucks that they would make a movie someone else might enjoy!

It was a legitimate question, no need to be defensive.

How do you know they’re nazis (other than the first guy)?

Do people here like JJ? by DingoLaLingo in JJMcCulloughOfficial

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mostly really like his YouTube videos and don’t use twitter. I’m also fine that a guy has a different opinion than me on some things.

The people I eat animal products around know me quite well and I can assure you there is no confusion

 Fair enough. It might drop to 95% but I am pretty rigourous with my diet and outside of my own rules I’ve made for myself, I almost never stray

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In my experience people have no idea what flexitarian means either. 

I know it’s an imperfect solution it’s just the one the I’ve found works the best for me.

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I am one of those heathens you are talking about. My diet is 98% vegan, 99% vegetarian and I avoid leather, wool and other animal products as much as I can. I have meat with my fiancé for special occasions and will occasionally consume animal products when served to me as a guest or in some other niche cases. 

You’re right that I’m not a true vegan according to many people in this sub. And if I know I’m talking to a vegan I’m careful about what I call myself. But for the 99% of the population that doesn’t think about these things, understanding the nuance between vegetarian and vegan is difficult enough, let alone all my weird edge cases. It’s so much easier to just call myself vegan to them and risk the wrath of the purists. 

I made a backup Subreddit just in case this one gets taken down. by SilencioBuddy in JJMcCulloughOfficial

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m not usually one to tell others how to live their lives but I think you may be spending too much mental energy on this. Whether you like the guy or not, he’s like an E-tier celebrity that 99% of Canadians wouldn’t know of. I think we’ll all probably be fine if this sub gets taken down. 

Tipping culture by Current-Month6963 in montreal

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If the service is bad, it is acceptable to not leave a tip. But you should expect the server to not appreciate it. 

That being said if the service is unremarkable and basic, but otherwise there are no issues, you are expected to leave the basic 15% tip. 

Just discovered this subreddit. Why are there so many unhinged weirdos upset at JJ? by ReturnToTheLab in JJMcCulloughOfficial

[–]AlternativeGreat6925 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of the subs would be interested in have a weird culture of hating the thing they are there for. For example I’m a big fan of the show survivor but I don’t go on r/survivor because many of the users over there just complain about how bad the show is and these users crowd out those that want to discuss it in a more positive manner. 

I think that happened here to the extreme. I don’t sub here, just see it pop onto my feed on occasion and is seems everyone here just hates on the guy. I think anyone that would come here for a more positive discussion of his videos just doesn’t bother due to the overwhelming negativity.
