You can't spell it, either.

Recipes aren't vegan. People are.

If I'm free, I graciously accept invitations and then I find stuff I can
eat.

I don't identify myself according to food, and I'd never use my personal
tastes as a segue to preach to others about what they should or
shouldn't eat.

It doesn't advocate a healthy diet at all. It advocates that people not
eat animals. It doesn't even distinguish between foods that cause more
animals to suffer and die, just that you not eat animal parts.

Not surprising coming from someone who doesn't even distinguish between
good and bad fats. Your ignorant generalizations may cause you even more
pain and suffering than if you'd not altered your diet at all.

You're the one who believes in and pushes the phony vegan religion.
In late 1944, The Vegan Society was established, advocating a
totally plant-based diet excluding flesh, fish, fowl, eggs,
honey, and animals' milk, butter, and cheese, and also
encouraging the manufacture and use of alternatives to animal
commodities, including clothing and shoes. The group argued that
the elimination of exploitation of any kind was necessary in
order to bring about a more reasonable and humane society. FROM
ITS INCEPTION, VEGANISM WAS DEFINED AS A "PHILOSOPHY" AND "WAY
OF LIVING." IT WAS NEVER INTENDED TO BE MERELY A DIET AND, STILL
TODAY, DESCRIBES A LIFESTYLE AND BELIEF SYSTEM THAT REVOLVES
AROUND A REVERENCE FOR LIFE.

My emphasis above. It is a "philosophy" and "way of living." The
dictionary defines religion as "a cause, principle, or system of beliefs
held to with ardor and faith." The tenets of veganism are held by ardor
and faith -- sanctimonious faith that NO animal suffered or died as a
result of one's activities, even though animals do suffer and die for
your food. Veganism actively seeks out converts (you yourself wished
everyone were vegan), and is intolerant of those who do not convert.
Veganism *is* a religion.
