The animals we create are morally equivalent to our own children. They are owed the unconditional love and protection of their creators. The experiences of animals are real and matter. Their suffering is identical in nature to your own. It harms us when we take pleasure in cruelty and violence.
Hey mate, After seeing your post, curious I went to check what you post. And found a very interesting post of your called The Science of Why People Hate Vegans it's a great post with a great video I just watched fully of BiteSizeVegan.org This comments makes you look a bit more "5:37" than "5:31" Seems like your doing a bit of "5:46" and a bit of "7:03" Especially this part, I would totally invite you to listen to it, it's very interesting.
I would even go to say you are right now actively participating to why people say those things at 10:12
Watch your own posts, you'll learn a lot, the video was very interesting.
To any UK vegetarian or vegan watching this except him, I would like your help
I'm a bit overwhelmed right now learning so much different brands, and products. I've got an Aldi near me where I got some "Planet Menu - Vive le Vegan" Soya Chicken" and found some fake steaks too so I'm quite happy as taht's what I usually buy for myself at home
I've been told there is also a Tesco around me, and I was wondering if anyone could tip me some good plant-based meat replacement brands that I would find at Aldi next time I go back or at Tesco, and if you knew if there was any Oat Milk? I usually buy Oat-ly in France, but I haven't found it yet at Aldi. If you have any tips fro brands or maybe specialised stores brands I can find, it would be a pleasure to get your help on that
Thank you in advance for any help!
Oatly should be widely available, otherwise most supermarkets now make their own brand. Personally I'm a soya milk drinker, so can't really recommend any though.
As for meat replacements - there are a lot, you can pretty much replace anything now from nuggets to donner to roast (like roast "chicken" or "beef", either whole or in pieces) to cold cuts. It's hard to say which you would like because they vary in texture and flavour, so I'd just start trying them out!
Some brands I personally enjoy - Squeaky Bean, Oumph, Vivera. But most supermarket own brands to really good stuff nowadays, even Iceland (if you don't have a store close by, they all deliver).
Thank you very much! I'll look for it
