So weird. They always make it look like a) all vegans eat is spirulina, wheatgrass, and barley, and b) they make the foods they think we eat look as weird as humanly possible!Hillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04829919190901891587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4710502269072433078.post-50990269255206127642015-11-30T10:11:24.180-08:002015-11-30T10:11:24.180-08:00I see both sides too, it's nice to see vegan a...I see both sides too, it's nice to see vegan as part of a huge ad campaign, like finally we've "made it", I just wish they would have shown a more laid back, less seaweed filled meal. But it's interesting to hear others opinions.Hillaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04829919190901891587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4710502269072433078.post-26241702516183228002015-11-30T09:50:55.346-08:002015-11-30T09:50:55.346-08:00I can see pros and cons on both sides of this, yes...I can see pros and cons on both sides of this, yes. I get pretty excited when I hear vegan, tho, so matter if it's run of the mill foods or 'off the wall ones' but I do get that eye roll started when I see the missrepresentation and/or weird stereotypes. One thing that made me laugh about this was that the old guy kept saying ' do you need money' which totally debunked the vegan lifestyle being stereotypically for the wealthy. I guess I do have a humor side if it is nicely done. With this...I'm torn because I can see both the pros and the cons and neither really out weight the other for me...so good and others bad...I guess...Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562457743187386722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4710502269072433078.post-59129731574287882992015-11-30T06:04:44.394-08:002015-11-30T06:04:44.394-08:00I hate missrepresentation of vegans too.

I love the show Gavin and Stacy and they had the one character get obsessed with lifting and they had a scene where he was drinking spirulina and it was lime green and thick. I can tell you it would never look that way! Even if you blended it with banana. *sigh*<br /><br />"tofu brick with scallion wash(gag)" XD This makes me think about when I was making a tofu recipe from an Asian Vegan cookbook (it was kind-of awful and was clearly not written by a vegan) and it was really bland. I said I was never going to make it again and my husband was like "OMG WHY! IT IS SOO GOOD!" All he meant was that he liked the crunchy breaded outside.
