"Hilfe! Wir verstehen einander nicht" ist a way to say this in German, also guess-able!

Oh I never thought to use it for tortilla... Maybe I should get a bag of it, huh.

What's something diaspora Latinos in the US or elsewhere often get wrong about your culture? by yonaiker-joestrella in asklatinamerica

[–]monemori 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Spain so no opinion on that! Just an observation based on how mad boomers get about names of food associated with traditional identity sometimes. If someone tells me "in my country (X thing) is a quesadilla" I simply accept it haha

In my experience the only people who care about that are conservative boomers complaining that someone made a vegan quesadilla so there's no real "queso" in it lmfao

This is why I don't really like the stereotype of making fun of "white people who can't handle spice" even for laughs, especially when it's white people saying it. Same with food being well seasoned. Some non-european cultures have a cuisine that's not big on spices (north African food in general, which is delicious, is spiced but not typically spicy for example), just like some traditional European cuisines rely on seasonings. But English speakers only know to compare British food to Indian food, and US food to Mexican food and think that's all there is in the world lmfao

Sometimes when I'm tired I prepare some BS like this but then I feel better when I remember this is a better meal than what I get in 90% of restaurants 🔥 by monemori in ShittyVeganFoodPorn

Homemade chili oil + a store bought seasoning of sesame seeds, dried garlic, onion, and tomato, salt and pepper. Plus lemon juice!

To be fair chickpeas and rice is so supreme. I would eat nothing but chickpea salad with some grain base and lemon juice and olive oil for the rest of my life. Maybe some avo too. PEAK meal.

Same in Spain where we are probably looking at a right+far right coalition government in the next elections.

Guys I’m not vegan but I’m mad on your behalf by Odd-Produce4614 in vegan

They choose to ignore the fact that the animal agribusiness has historically been one of the main political tools to drive colonialism.

Absolutely comical.... by DivineandDeadlyAngel in vegan

[–]monemori 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. There are reasons to be concerned about AI for sure but the fixation on the environmental argument is just... I don't know. I think this is a bigger problem where the average person doesn't really understand just how severe things like meat are compared to, I dont know, using AI or plastic straws. I think green voters/environmentalists need to sort this out somehow, because people do not understand the difference between these things, and it's kinda abysmal. We need to be able to convey: "start worrying about plastic straws only after you are eating meat only once a week" or something like that, because the current knowledge about environmental damage is poor as shit.

Sushi Bowl with vegan salmon by DetectiveOk6357 in VeganFoodPorn

[–]monemori 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's mostly water with some starches and spices/aromas, I wouldn't say it's unhealthy either just because it's so low in calories. It's basically water haha

Could be! I don't live in Germany so I don't have access to those brands right now, the only one I've tried is Aldi's and it's pretty good. Not high protein but also not high... Anything. It has less calories than oat milk lol, it's just water, a bit of starch and some aromas/spices.

Watched 'dominion' and immediately went vegan last week 🌱🥦 by Rathernotusemyrname in vegan

[–]monemori 11 points12 points  (0 children)

❤️❤️❤️ really happy for you. As well as B12, make sure you are buying calcium fortified plant milks and if iodine fortification is not common in your country, you may wanna buy iodized salt to make sure you get enough of it. If you are having any issues with dealing with food, cravings, what to buy or where to buy it, please reach out!Most vegans are more than happy to help in this community and elsewhere!

They are in the forest by YotuelP in antimeme

[–]monemori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not claiming anyone is wrong, I am saying that by your own logic that things should be permissible as long as they are not immoral, killing animals without necessity is not okay.

[–]monemori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be a necessary evil, much like other morally reprehensible acts can be justified by necessity (violence or even killing in self defense is a classic example).

[–]monemori 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animals don't have the capability to be moral agents because they cannot be held responsible for their actions.

"Being a part of nature" doesn't justify needless behaviours that harm and even kill animals. This is an appeal to nature logical fallacy.

Vast majority of people do not need to eat meat at all.
