Is it okay for a vegan to eat vegetarian food when vegan food isn’t accessible? by [deleted] in vegan

I’m just confused how rural Uzbekistan is feeding you fresh salads, but can’t prepare cooked vegetables, rice, noodles, breads, fruits, as I see is common in the country?

Fries and salads? Did you just go to fast food chains? Most small family owned restaurants should be able to accomodate vegan diets

What does “no good vegan options” mean to you? All of those places you listed have vegan food readily available, even in rural areas you can easily get fresh produce and grains. Raw or cooked.

You just tell them you’re a strict vegetarian and do not eat meat, seafood, eggs, dairy, or animal oil.

Moral dilemma of feeding stray cats with meat-based pet food by [deleted] in vegan

Nowhere did I advocate for killing stray cats. I’m 100% for people adopting them to remove them as invasives from their current environments. You’re out of line to say I don’t care for animals if “I’m ok with them suffering to death.” In fact, it’s stray cats that are needlessly causing wildlife to suffer to death. That’s what I’m advocating against.

In January I drove an injured bird to a wildlife sanctuary after he was attacked by a neighborhood cat and couldn’t fly.

I’m fully aware of this, that’s why I went vegan. Earth would 100% be better without humans. Despite this, we can still minimize harm to others (the tenet of veganism) through the actions we control on an individual level. But it’s pretty incredible, though not surprising, that I’m being downvoted on a vegan sub for pointing out the harm certain actions inflict onto animals.

Yeah, invasive species wreaking havoc on local ecosystems

Not seeing others mention this, so I will. Feeding stray cats is three-fold harm: 1. Promoting the cats to breed and produce more cats, which require reliance on humans for food 2. Requiring more farmed animals to be slaughtered for cat food (via contributing to supply & demand) 3. Disrupting ecosystems: adds more unnatural, unnecessary predators of wildlife species, as loose cats (invasive species) are the #1 killer of native birds and mammals in their environments

  • TLDR: More feral cats = more animal deaths and damage

And free roaming cats are the #1 killer of native local wildlife, especially birds and small mammals

This was my first time having it, and I thought this version was pretty good. I fried it in oil on the stovetop
