I'm trying really hard to be reducitarian so I'll have something interesting to put in my Tinder bio but I can't find any reducitarian recipes. :'( I'm trying to eat 99.9% of the animal products I would normally eat (I have calculated that I won't be able to get enough protein otherwise) but I can't find any recipes for this. So I'm thinking that for now I'll only eat reducitarian when I go out to restaurants that have reducitarian options labeled on the menu. After I'm comfortable with that, I may try ordering extra cheese instead of bacon when I go to McDonald's. I'm so proud to be going on this journey. πŸ’šπŸŒ±

Edit: I noticed someone downvoted this post so I have made the difficult decision to stop being reducitarian. It's just too difficult & extreme to keep up this fringe lifestyle and I have noticed that I have a slight tummy ache so I think it's just not right for my body. πŸ’” But I'm still reducitarian in spirit! Keep living your truth, everyone!

Have you tried replacing meat burgers with foie gras? It really puts the goose in your baby steps.

Oh sweety you're so brave. I abuse children and that gentle parenting cult was so mean to me when I said I was going from 20 whips with a belt to 19 for toys on the floor (at least when I remember, nobody is perfect). Humans have been beating children for millenia, it's just unrealistic to stop overnight.

Feel good about yourself for doing what you can <3 xoxo

Don’t worry I will hold your hand!

Maybe one day you will reach the 99.8% reduction target.

Reduction is hard okay!
