Is this a punishment? Did a vegan turn them down for prom and they swore eternal vengeance?

    Have a place near here who instead of just… having beans… lists zucchini as their only non-meat… “protein”. I’m like JUST. GIVE. ME. BEANS.

      What is this aversion to beans? People love them, they’re cheap, they’re easily stored, and they show up in fucking burritos. It’s like the word vegetarian means something different when writing a menu.

      They probably cook or buy their beans with animal fat and can’t be bothered to make a vegetarian/vegan version. Which is unfortunate. It’s exactly why places like Chipotle have black beans as an alternative to the pinto. It’s easy and gives variety at the cost of nothing really.

        I believe chipotle stopped using pork in their pinto beans a while ago. Same for Moe’s.

        But yeah, that is always a concern with rice and beans because… uhg.
