Sorry this is kinda political. Is there an asklemmypolitics group this would be better for? I’m hoping not to get into the libs vs progressives political debate we see everywhere on here… Just want to know what people are actually looking for.

Aggressively trying to force their ideas on people is obnoxious. People should be free to make their own choices. If people want to try vegetarianism, be a resource for them. Don’t shove it down their throats and brag about your superior moral values. It makes other vegetarians look bad.
No one cares if you don’t eat meat. As for lashing out I believe you already had that covered. And I can give you the greatest plot twist of this post. I’ve been a vegetarian for over 25 years; I’ve been vegan for over 7 at one point.
Your argument is completely invalid. Don’t make me look bad because you want to brag about your convictions. This is why I dislike my fellow vegetarians.
Being militant won’t convince anyone for a cause. Being open to them asking questions will. Offer people to try things. Be a good friend. You will be far more successful. I say this from experience.
And if you have some recipes you swear by, feel free to PM them. I like cooking and trying new things.
I remember having to spend $20 a week on groceries 15 years ago. Now I’m spending ~$30. It’s disgusting.
Edit: I don’t know why I am getting downvoted.this is really about what I spend on groceries.
I may also have some advantages here. I eat almost a vegan diet. I do a large amount of cooking from scratch. I also will look for the discount items at stores and plan accordingly from what I find. The most expensive thing I get is Yogurt because it’s where I get my protein besides beans.
This week I was making vegan Bahn Mi sandwiches. (Cilantro, Pickled carrots, Pickled radish, cucumber, green onion, tofu, and Avacado that was bought the previous week, baguette)
$6 Yogurt $12 vegetables/fruits $1 Bread $3 sting cheese Cheese $2 Tofu $5 premade non perishable food items $12 bulk energy drinks, this will last me a while. Found them on discount. $3 pickles
So, we are up to over $40, but because I bought stuff in bulk this week. Next week it will probably be $25 or so.
If anyone is in a bind that wants food ideas, hit me up. I love cooking.
I’m going to real, I don’t know how. I thought that this was kind of normal. Usually I eat a lot of produce, yogurt, and dried beans. I also have a garden. I’m trying to avoid processes foods and breads.
Ooh let me know how that goes. I wanted to try my hand at sour dough myself.
I do have a garden, Kale and collard greens grows year round which is nice. My recommendation for gardening is potato, Kale, Collard Greens, Tomato, Fresh Herbs, Squash, peppers.
Some interesting adds are prickly pear cactus, Yarrow, Rose, dandelion.
