So... Tell me how vegan alternatives to items reduce carbon footprint lol.

Vegans in ideology make sense, but if you are paying more for food [that's worse for you, instead:] just buy local stuff from your farmers market or ethically-farmed things... Local eggs, cows, vegetables... Surely this can't be unreasonable.

  1. Oil comes from dinosaurs.
  2. Electricity comes from oil.
  3. This means electricity is made from dinosaurs.
  4. Dinosaurs are animals.
  5. This means electricity is an animal product.

How curious it is that vegans still use electricity, when in most places it isn't even vegan!
