Must we put label on everything?
On one of the vegan groups I belong to, with more than 30k members, someone asked what type of vegans the members are.
Good gosh, apparently there are tons of labels out there.
- whole food vegans
- whole food raw vegans
- whole food plant based vegans
- plant based vegans
- raw vegans
- fruitarian vegans
- g/f vegans
- soy free vegans
- ethical vegans
- sugar free vegans
- unprocessed vegans
- junk food vegans
- high carb low fat vegans
- keto vegans
- no oil vegans
- level 💯 vegans
- healthy vegans
Etc etc etc.
Like wowzer!
So fun to learn there are subdivisions of vegans out there. Here I was, always thinking vegan means no animal suffering, period 😂 Oh TKF, you are so slow 😂
So I chimed in. I said I'm a hangry forever fat vegan.
You know, I didn't grow up with dairy, daily milk, tons of cheesey goodies not even butter nor potato dishes, but yes I was all carb (from rice), all margarine, and all sugar girl. I love my sweets, man. I've been vegan since summer 2016, and I kid you not, I have not shed any pounds even when I became meatless, eggless, dairy free, no honey. My treadmill loves me, we have a date daily for at least 30 mins. I walk my kids to school back and forth unless it's -28 C. I am still heavy weight and I am hungry easily. I don't feel full unless I eat rice (now more to fries) and this damn kangaroo pouch from having 2 huge babies is still my best friend that I take everywhere 😂
So yeah, should I put a label on myself, I definitely am a hangry forever fat vegan and I hail Seitan 😈
But in seriousness, I don't care of labels, let me just stuff my face with these following oven fried potato wedges 😉

How To
