Went to one once. Half the guests (literally half, very noticeable) left for an hour during the reception to go to Burger King down the street.
True story. |

If anyone starts talking about their "spirit animals," tell them that yours is the pig because they taste good.

Quoted: Who has a wedding and fails to mention it is a cash bar? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Will there be free alcohol? Who has a wedding and fails to mention it is a cash bar? and then just hire a licensed bartender, who will just charge them a flat rate for their time, usually quite reasonably. It's way cheaper for the couple and the bartender makes bank on tips. We've done this for a number of weddings and the bartender can easily bring in 2 grand in cash tips for one night. It's a good gig. |

I had a heart attack in November and have been on a health kick since trying to better myself. I started dating a vegetarian cross fit chick 13 years my junior and she cooks most of our food. Its incredible. I have consumed meat twice in 2024 (one Chicago dog and one cheeseburger) and I honestly couldn't feel better. Down 82 pounds since Dec 1 2024 just eating vegetarian and walking.

Quoted: Meh, I like vegetables. There are plenty of great vegetarian / vegan dishes out there. Shit goes south when they start in with the fake meat and soy cheese, or just put in no effort and serve a pile of leaves. View Quote But I'm on the same page about fake meat and fake nut cheese No thank you |

Quoted: why even go? all you're doing is help celebrate their mental illness. View Quote By the way The grooms family are all carnivores as well as I am. It's the groom and the bride that are the vegans. they are great kids just their dietary requirements are a little askew and that's OK |

Quoted: Free booze? I'd need a gag order to keep me from triggering the snowflakes. View Quote You can always tell what my wife is thinking because you can just see it. I can literally, walk into a room look at her, and I know right off the bat. If she is annoyed, pissed, happy, frustrated you name it. (Queue the Abe Simpson gif when he walks in to a room and walks right back out) |
|
Quoted: I'm curious. It's not uncommon for a vegan/vegetarian to demand a vegan acceptable meal at an event they attend. Can a carnivore do the same, or is that different? OP, was there a meat option on the RSVP? View Quote The other question someone else brought up is if they will have "nut cheese" there Are they not thinking about the people with nut allergies? |

At a vegan wedding, who will the vegans tell they’re vegan to?

View Quote I STRONGLY doubt it. There is NO WAY you lost that much weight since December 1 2024 no way!!! I know what you meant But I thought I'd have a little fun with you. That being said, good for you! Nothing tastes as good as thin feels. How is the ticker doing? Following up with your cardiologist? I'm glad you survived it And better yet I'm glad you're doing something about it. One of my clients got a heart transplant and he still continues to smoke. |

You can expect there will be no one to chat about AR15's with. Maybe no one you will have anything in common with at all.

AAR:
Wedding was awesome (Knew the groom since the day he was born) Again only he and his wife are vegan. Everyone in attendance were not. The best man made sure to bring THAT up in his speech The menu was 2 kinds of salads, a potato and kale dish, falafel, and pasta. Not bad at all (although the falafel was gone by the time we got to the buffet I actually like falafel) We had had that served on disposable bamboo plates, knives and forks... weird but OK. I have to say the vegan cupcakes were not as bad as I thought it would be. No eggs or dairy? My curiosity is to find out how they are made but some things are best left to the unknown. All the guests were skeptical of the food prior to eating but were saying "you know, it wasn't that bad" at the end of the night My only complaint? Nut cheese.... Dear Lord why did you allow humans to create this? That was HORRIBLE!!! I FORBID my tastebuds to ever eat NUTCHEESE EVER AGAIN! Just say the word.... Nnnnnnnnutcheeeeeeeese. Other than me and my WIFE'S car, there were no other Subarus there. |

I don’t understand
Anytime we throw a party, or even just having people over, including our wedding way back when, we always consider what the guests like when figuring out food and drinks If only bride and groom were vegan, why did they serve only vegan food? Seems like a dick move that serves no real purpose. |

Quoted: ...If only bride and groom were vegan, why did they serve only vegan food? Seems like a dick move that serves no real purpose. View Quote Some vegans are, or at least pretend to be, offended by the presence of animal-based food products. They'll complain about the appearance of the food, its smell, or even the mere thought of animals being exploited for food. They will never pass up an opportunity to tell you that they are vegan, kind of like that old joke about never asking a man if he's from Texas. They're not all that way. My wife's Apple (computer) consultant is vegan, but he's not at all offended by people eating non-vegan stuff. Good on the Best Man for roasting the couple a bit. |

I went to a relative's wedding a number of years ago that had health issues and couldn't eat meat. Her diet was really bizarre and basically eating vegan or something similar type diet.
Got there and DAMN if the whole menu was crap like she'd eat. I'll be honest , the wooden trays the "food" came on tasted better than the actual food. |

Did you take some Beno before you went to bed ?
That's a high end dutch oven event about to creep up on you. |

I’d have brought a couple sacks full of cheeseburgers and eaten them at my table.

Kharn I love my Forrester!!! I loved my Impreza and I love my Ascent, but that Impreza had a ton of extended warranties due to all the fucking issues with the engine and transmission from the year it was made. I think they extended the engine to 80k and the transmission to 100k? My Ascent practically drives itself, it's amazing. Kharn |

My wife is a vegetarian (still eats seafood). Our wedding meal options were strip steak, salmon, or chicken.
Your hosts easily could have had 3 options as well: vegan, steak, chicken. But in the end, who really cares? As long as you have a good time, get enough to eat that you're not hungry, and don't die of a nut allergy, it's just a party with friends. Yes they could have accommodated guests better. But in the end, they did just fine, and invited you to their party. |

Homo sapiens sapiens are evolved to be carnivorous apex predators. We adapted to be able to survive on vegetation temporarily, for when we can't find real food.
Did the couple provide all the long list of supplements essential to surviving on their virtue-signaling "diet?" I could see them offering free Vitamin B12 injections, for example. Plants are trying to kill you. Animal proteins and fats are essential nutrients. Carbs are recreation. PHD!!!! Proper human diet. Only two reasons for a man to eat vegetables: He can't find real human food OR he wants sexual favors from his woman. |

View Quote This...the bride and groom must be so self centered that they were the only 2 grass eaters at the wedding and instead of doing a normal catering for their guests and bridal party decided to have everyone partake in a vegetarian experience at thier wedding. I wonder how many of the guests met later at Texas Roadhouse? |
