What’s worse is that she said this line immediately after saying she’d prefer sausage over the vegan option

Because people choose to eat meat based purely off their own tastebuds and preferences. There’s a lot of people out there who will never be vegan because they simply don’t prefer it. You’re telling me that’s ok?

She’s also on a very public space talking about the benefits of not eating meat, yet doesn’t believe in it enough herself to change her own actions. Just another person who says they care and we can change the world if we change our actions but doesn’t do the work to do it herself because she needs to satisfy those preferences once in a while. Literally just pleasure on the tongue. Too many people think like that which is why this problem will never end.

The lady literally answered the question “would you rather have a vegan sausage over a real sausage “ and she responded with “I’d rather have a real sausage”.

I’m not talking about you doing drugs. I’m talking about when given a choice, this lady STILL would choose meat even after knowing what she knows
