Veganuary 21 responses

[Muddyroads]

We all know it’s coming, and hopefully a bit dumbed down this year. So how are people planning on responding or countering the general b*ll*cks that goes with it?
We supply an online farmers market with pies, pasties, cakes, lamb, beef etc. I rather hit the roof when I read that they were asking what pies and pasties we’ll have available next week as they want to do a veganuary promotion, so in response we’re doing discounted lamb through January, even though market prices are rising.
Anybody got similar ideas or good 1 liner responses?
My stock answers are:
a) Our sheep and cattle are vegan, therefore suitable for vegan diets.
b) Sorry, we only do ethical food.

I like your stock answers especially B . sorry we only do ethical food.

100% home grown with no air miles to destroy or climate.

I might give Veganjuanary a go,
After being an omnivore for life, I might see what this plant based diet is all about for 31 days
Change is as good as a rest....as they say

“There’s no such thing as vegan”

Why not just go veggie. Everything seems to have to be so extreme these days!

We farm in the uplands - every1 keeps telling me "you'll be planting trees on it all" with all the changes to subsidy.... I ask them have they seen the lamb and beef trade - no way.......!! 6

How about:-
Our sheep and cattle make the view you look at.
No Rainforest cut down for our livestock.
No artificial supplements required when you eat our products.

Nope, it started with a bare fridge and having cheese sandwiches, then we had beans on toast for tea, we then tried it from there just out of interest.
It was awful

Veganuary will be a much tamer affair this year. AR are out of puff (low iron), nothing planned for it on their FB page.

That said, there is a new campaign being launched next week saying that cows are responsible for 5% of all UK greenhouse gas emissions. we will need to be ready to counter that one.

Are the NFU launching that one, or AHDB?

Go flexitarian like me.

Every meal I have is entirely vegetarian.


Apart from the meat portion.

Veganism, a dangerous amalgam of an eating disorder and religion that is likely to leave any converts suffering poor health due to dietary imbalance. Likely symptoms include mental instability and females unable to conceive.

All those poor airlines and the Californian avacado growers need the money to pay for the mass irrigation, so yeah let’s screw the environment and go vegan.
