Why are vegans the minority?
Answers:
Smart and caring people are always the minority... Sigh
Because the human body REQUIRES the nutrients derived from MEAT.
And a steak just tastes so darned good!
Minority in what way? To vegetarians or people in general?
Because most vegans eat the way they do because of moral reasons, some do it for health reasons. The body doesn't need meat to survive, contray to popular belief. Everything, protein, iron, and B12 can all be gotten in abundance from other meat free foods and sources.Vegans believe it's wrong to harm animals in anyway. Most people are raised to eat meats and dairy in most countries so it's just the way people eat. I was a vegetarian (far from being a vegan) for over 5 years but I didn't eat meat for taste reasons, not animal rights reasons. I still don't eat most meat but I'll have tuna and ham a few times a month. With the way Americans and Westerners eat it would take a lot of motivation and determination not to eat any meat or dairy if they truly liked the taste of it.
Because a big ol slab of ribs tastes soooooo damn good
I think I know what you're asking.
Most people don't go vegan for many reasons. 1.) they love meat too much and can't live without it.
2.) Health reasons. Some people need to eat meat because their bones will get fragile or already have.
3.) People could really care less about animals and whether or not they are treated ethically. 4.) Vegan is a very difficult diet- avoiding diary and a lot of ingredients is very challenging.
Therefore there aren't a lot of vegans.
I was a vegetarian for over 11 years before finally deciding to take the next step. I remember thinking that being a vegan sounds complicated and I didnt know what I would eat if I didnt eat dairy. (sounds stupid now, but I'm being honest).
I only wish I made my decision sooner. Being a vegan is so great, I feel much healthier, and I dont find it complicated at all! I discovered new foods, and I love how it makes me feel.
I think this could be the case with other people too. There are many misconceptions about veganism, but I bet if they could stick to it for a month or so, many of them would change their mind forever. Well, I'm glad I did.
BECAUSE VEGANS AINT COOL AT ALL!
GO MEAT GO MILK YAY!!!!!!!!!!
