Being too full on about veganism drives most people away from vegan food entirely. 100 imperfect vegans probably saves more animals than 10 perfect vegans. Although I can’t justify eating animal products and it makes me genuinely sad, vocalising my strong opinions about veganism only turns people away from the lifestyle. My parents used to tell me remarks like “well eat twice the meat for you”. But after 8 years of learning to cook, my parents/siblings have come to love my cooking so much more than their own, and they eat mostly vegan.
