Welcome
Welcome to c/[email protected]. Broadly, this community is a place to discuss veganism. Discussion on intersectional topics related to the animal rights movement are also encouraged.
What is Veganism?
'Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals ...'
— abridged definition from The Vegan Society
Rules
The rules are subject to change, especially upon community feedback.
- Discrimination is not tolerated. This includes speciesism.
- Topics not relating to veganism are subject to removal.
- Posts are to be as accessible as practicable:
- embedded images of text require alt-text
- posts with an image of text should have a transcription in the body or alt-text
- paywalled articles must have an accessible non-paywalled link;
- use the original source whenever possible for a news article.
- Content warnings are required for triggering content.
- Bad-faith carnist rhetoric & anti-veganism are not allowed, as this is not a space to debate the merits of veganism. Anyone is welcome here, however, and so good-faith efforts to ask questions about veganism may be given their own weekly stickied post in the future.
- before jumping into the community, we encourage you to read examples of common fallacies here.
- if you're asking questions about veganism, be mindful that the person on the other end is trying to be helpful by answering you and treat them with at least as much respect as they give you.
- Posts and comments whose contents – text, images, etc. – are largely created by a generative AI model are subject to removal. We want you to be a part of the vegan community, not a multi-head attention layer running on a server farm.
- No brigading, either off-site or on-site. An incitement to brigade includes two elements: a call to disruptive action and a specific direction outside of this community in which to take that action. Exceptions include:
- Calls to boycott.
- Calls to in-person protest of a government, high-profile individual, or company/organization.
- Votes provided they have a sufficiently broad target audience or provably effective controls against vote brigading.
- Petitions.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service also apply.

@duckweed @vegan what we do roughly once a week:
-1lb ground impossible beef with lots of taco seasoning blended in.
-Rosarita vegetarian refried beans (they are vegan)
-yellow onions, cilantro, green and red bell pepper, lettuce, black olive, tomato
-medium or large size fresh tortillas, grilled
-herdez chipotle salsa crema sauce or guacamole sauce
Sauté some chopped onions on the bottom of your empty refried beans pot with a little powdered garlic, then put the beans on top of all that once they are cooked.
Fry up the impossible meat, season the hell out of it with taco seasoning.
When the meat is done, grill/sauté onions, peppers in the skillet you cooked the meat in, getting the impossible meat flavor on them + maybe some more taco seasoning.
EDIT: medium to medium-hi heat for the veggies. Medium-lo temp for the impossible meat. You can medium/hi the impossible, but you may get rapid browning or burning.
Basic vegetable oil for cooking veggies. Just 1 or 1.5 tablespoons. (or however you like your veggies)
You can just throw fresh tomato chunks and lettuce on the food, or you can finely cop the tomatoes and some onions and some cilantro, mix it together, put a tablespoon or so of lime juice in it, a pinch of salt, and mix the hell out of it. Pico de gallo! I use TONS of cilantro in mine.
Just make burritos or soft tacos out of this! Use a LOT of herdez sauce and pico because it is AMAZZZZZZING when it blends with impossible meat!! Make sure to take a bite with ALL those thing together!!
We LOVE this^^^ Im thawing some impossible meat right now.
