    One of my favorite facts about nature is the fact that practically nothing is vegan. Herbivores are basically constantly eating insects off of the plant matter they eat, and pretty much anything will eat eggs if they find them unguarded.

    My point is that if you want to be “closer to what nature intended”, being a vegan with cheat days is probably the closest you’ll get.

      Being vegan isn’t about being “closer to what nature intended”, it’s about reducing cruelty and harm as much as practicable/possible.

        Being vegan is a lot of things to a lot of people. It’s not only about animal suffering. This is true for some people but plenty of people are vegan for health reasons.
