Hello,

 

Haven't posted in a while but couldn't help noticing the trend in

peoples negative attitudes towards veganism and all the comments

about not patronizing bk etc...

 

I for one happen to like the bk veggie burger, I applaude them for

putting something on their menu to accomodate vegetarians and vegans

alike. I believe this is a huge step in the right direction. If we

completely boycot these places, the few menu choices they do have

will surely be discontinued. To change the worlds thinking could

not possibly happen overnight. Any step however great or small is

still a step in the right direction.

 

And besides, if we overwhelmed them with businees by patronizing

them ie. killing them with kindness, would this not help them to

see the great number of us who believe that all living things are

precious. This, to me, makes much more sense. This could prompt

them to add even more vegan friendly items on their menu. We must

face the fact that these fast food establishments are in business to

make money, that includes giving the public what it wants. With the

majority of the public being t-rexs, ie meat eaters, we will never

see a major chain restaurant go vegan. Yes we will see more choices

for vegans with our continued awareness techniques to all non

vegans, and more choices for us, means less animal products being

used in that restaurant.

 

So lets stop whining about the little things, lets be greatful some

people out there are listening and becoming enlightened, and we can

trust that more are to follow.

 

everything happens for a reason, whether we can see it clearly or it

is clouded with our own selfish views and misconceptions.

 

may peace come to all

Hi Nick

 

I think that the veggie burger places will get more veggie customers in the

future anyway. We have just arrived back after a week in the Highlands, and

there were no veggie restaurants -two years ago there were four!
