So, you do realize that there are people who can't have dairy, right? And those people might still want ice cream.
I imagine if those people had a choice, they also wouldn't choose vegan ice cream.
Then you don't have a great imagination.
I imagine someone with a dairy allergy would be more appreciative of alternative options than someone who clearly doesn't need to worry about it.
It's not a team sport, it's fucking ice cream. Get over it.
Vegan ice cream has fiber. Coconut ice cream, unless it's vanilla, tastes exactly the same as regular ice cream. Except it has a smaller carbon footprint and some actual nutrition. It's not good for you of course, but the fiber makes it so it's actually filling. And most modern diets have fiber deficiencies.
Can you recommend a specific one? I'm absolutely certain that I'll prefer real ice cream, but I've never tried vegan ice cream, and maybe someday I will.
Ben&Jerry’s. They have lots of flavor options, pick what you like!
You imagine wrong. If I know a vegan ice cream has good flavor and texture, I'll opt for it over dairy ice cream. A delicious dessert that doesn't give me room-clearing farts? Yes, please!
So if people can't have dairy, they also wouldn't choose vegan ice cream? That seems like a wrong statement.
There are many people who loved dairy icecream before going vegan, becoming lactose intolerant or even realizing they are lactose intolerant. Why would you not enjoy something that tastes 99% the same?
Yeah, I agree. Why did you make that statement?
What the hell are you on about?
And what’s your mythical third option then?
Sorbet is excellent.
Yeah, that sucks. It doesn't make vegan ice cream good though.
Then don't eat it? What the fuck is your problem outside of "it's vegan"?
I don't?
Great, then quit being a little bitch about the existence of something that has zero effect on you. It's not fucking team sports. Grow the fuck up.
The fuck is your problem? You're allowed to say you like a thing but I'm not allowed to disagree? Why don't you stop being an over sensitive jerk?
