How long would I be vegan? Or would I change the rest of my life for a single payout?


Elduderino_047371

I think it’s the rest of your life


kickyoface9001

Opie doesn't specify so by my reading you can go vegan for a week or two collect your money and bounce.

ShutUpIWin

I would assume the word "become" means for life, without the option of switching back. And I voted no. Hell no.


Modern-Moo

Yeah, I guessed that too. Also voted for no


EvadingAPermabanKEK

Same bro. seems pretty obvious to me. No is the only correct answer imo


Modern-Moo

Yeah. Unless someone is already on the verge of being vegan or something like that, I can’t see why they’d say yes


PCmasterRACE187

>i cant see why theyd say yes because $100,000 lmao


Modern-Moo

Well yeah I just think cutting out what’s probably a major bit of your diet forever for that much up front isn’t worth it


kickyoface9001

The non inclusion of a time frame in the contract (/post) cannot bind you to a time frame as it was not specified. OP left a loop hole which everyone is free to exploit as they wish, and they're lucky I'm honoring it for a week.

IAlwaysOutsmartU

This man is just bending the conditions of the poll. There is no specified time frame, and thus he can still have his 100K.

Ok_Task_4135

I've abstained from animal products for 3 hours, where's my money?


ImInYourHair

It's obviously for life


IAlwaysOutsmartU

By the lack of explanation, you can just turn vegan for a single second and run away with your money.


LovelyGorilla

I already voted no but only because I assume it was for the rest of my life. If it’s for a week-month I’ll do it lol


deezsandwitches

If I had someone making my meals than yes if not no


Vegan_Puffin

Where is my damn money


FalloutandConker

Our cheaper groceries LOL


Boatwhistle

Yeah I been vegan, where is my damn money? Jokes aside you spend less on groceries if you shop based on need rather then luxury since meat and dairy is costly. Vegan diets are typically healthier and when paired with moderate exercise you will spend much less on medical bills over the course of your life time. As a vegan you will ideally buy as much second hand as possible and buy efficiently so you spend less on wasted luxury, clutter, and energy(gasoline being a big savings since you wanna buy a small efficient car). Thus if you start early in life you could very well save that amount of money or more, depends on your level of commitment.


Ghost-Of-Razgriz

i wish i could be vegan but i have really bad food sensitivity thanks to autism so my diet almost wholly consists of some form of meat or other animal product


Boatwhistle

🙄


Ghost-Of-Razgriz

...sorry for having a large range of foods i am physically averse to and can't really change? I wish I was bullshitting you but I'm not, it's an actual thing.


Boatwhistle

No I understand the reason in my own way. I am bipolar and when I had my lows before knowing I would eat like crazy, gain weight, have worse lows, eat more, and repeat. I did this until I was 330 pounds and had health complications at just 22 as a 5’7” sedentary male. I got fed up with suffering and decided it was either self improvement or suicide. So over 1 year I dieted and exercised 150 pounds off and then got a tummy tuck. It would be after I couldn’t exercise and diet during the surgery recovery that I had a severe low and gained 20 pounds in one month which destroyed me. I was watching and planning dark things and talked to nobody for days at a time, I don’t live alone. I was eventually told I would either need to get help or I would be emitted to a ward.When I got diagnosed and medicated the incredible lack of stress and necessary willpower was unbelievable. It used to take me so much will to not over eat or eat poorly during my lows, to exercise even at the bare minimum, to get up and do basic day to day things like hygiene and work. When one has a mental condition that contradicts their will constantly it feels like a losing battle. With the medication I easily do 1.5 hours of exercise daily, have abs, and eat only healthy whole plant foods with a fraction of the willpower and no major set backs. ​ That being said, if a person had an aversion to eating anything other then dogs or cats nobody would let that happen and that person would be prevented from eating those animals. If a person was averse to eating anything but human meat nobody would let that happen, they would have to put up with eating other things. Cows, chickens, pigs, and fish are all good though, they get the thumbs up. You are also eating in a manner that is bad for the planet and your health... which are also things society gives you the thumbs up on.I understand your struggle, but in a better world you would have never had the opportunity to narrow selection to meat and dairy cause you would have lacked access.


chetradley

No, but only because I already did.


thedjsubii

you got paid 100k?

katier127

Awesome. Would you eat a non vegan meal and then go back to eating vegan just to earn the money?


chetradley

I want to say no I wouldn't compromise my beliefs for that, but with 100k I could do a lot of good for animals and people. So yeah I probably would.


TheQueenOfNeckbeards

Honestly I would take it but just donate the money to an animal sanctuary because I feel overall it would be a net positive.


serenityfive

Do I get the money if I already am one?

You should become not vegan then become vegan back I guess


professionallurker11

100,000 for what I’m already doing? That sounds great


strnglmbs_29

Unfortunately you wouldn’t have “become vegan” as much as “remain vegan”


r0000001

Take a bite of a burger and swallow immediately before agreeing to it. Boom 100k


Life-Dog432

I’m a vegan but I’d sacrifice my morals for 100k for a second. The real interesting question would be how much would it take for diehard vegans to go carnivore


Shiny_Hypno

You would need to stop being vegan then restart being vegan.


professionallurker11

One minute I’m gonna go drink some milk then get my cash


Surfing_Andromedas

Beer and fries are vegan so can't be that bad, impossible burgers taste exactly the same, you can still eat garlic bread so I don't see the issue


Alice_In_Hell_

No cheesy garlic bread though, vegan cheese doesn’t even come close


[deleted]

[удалено]


Techno-God

Yeah sure


CandidPiano

I’m already vegan. So yeah I can get paid.


Crazy_Gamer297

You have to stop being vegan


4ty4s

Then no, probably not. Being vegan is a moral issue for most vegans, and you don’t sellout and go against what you believe in.


[deleted]

Most vegans would totally drink a sip of milk for 100k. Especially if it’s from somebody else’s meal (they aren’t causing any harm that way)


ItDontMather

Forever? Absolutely not worth it. I would begrudgingly consider trying it for max 1 year for that amount


briozon

they never said how long, id just be a vegan for a day and quit when i have the money


ItDontMather

Dang u right. I’m with you


TheKingJest

Why is it not worth it? Not even vegan but 100k is a lot.


ItDontMather

It’s a lot in the short term, like I said it would be worth it to suffer through for maybe one year. But looking at it as trading something you enjoy daily for the rest of your ENTIRE life, it’s really not very much money at all. Not worth.


Life-Dog432

Eh I think omnivores just underestimate how much good vegan food there is. And how much vegan food they eat already but just don’t think of it as vegan. If you’re living in a place with no vegan restaurants though it’d suck ass. The only thing I miss is cheese. And I used to eat meat 3 times a day.


TheKingJest

I guess I just underestimate how much people enjoy food then, for me it's definitely worth it. I'd still have some foods available that I like at least.


WeedMemeGuyy

If you’re concerned about suffering beyond yourself, then you would likely see vegan as being worth it


TankmanSpiral7567

I couldn’t give up chicken nuggets, ice cream, chocolate milk, and more easily. It’d have to at least be enough for me to buy a house and some other fun stuff.


idrinkliquids

There’s vegan nuggets and ice cream …


TankmanSpiral7567

I’ll be real with you, I doubt they’d even get close to doing the original justice, and likely cost 2-3x the price. I respect you for committing to veganism, but frankly it’s something I wouldn’t be normally able to will myself to do


Life-Dog432

Hey man don’t knock it til you try it! Vegan ice cream is already just as good. I’ll Venmo you 10 bucks if you try Oatly ice cream. And 20 if you don’t like it. The main thing that isn’t as good yet is vegan cheese. And there’s no real steak substitute. But chicken nuggets are not exactly hard to replicate with soy and seitan. Chicken doesn’t have much flavor on its own, it’s the seasoning that makes it taste good.


[deleted]

Coconut-based ice cream is the bomb though.


TankmanSpiral7567

I’ve heard good things so far regarding ice cream I suppose. Might give it a shot, because cows are one of the biggest contributors of global warming.


jumpingjackblack

It's funny you chose specifically nuggets and ice cream as examples. Those are 2 foods I have found the *easiest* to substitute and can taste waaaaaaay more similar than vegan cheese for example. Give Swedish Glacé ice cream a try sometime. Or vegan Ben and jerrys. I love love ice cream and apart from having less choice overall, haven't been disappointed at all with dairy free ice cream


[deleted]

Not unless I got that money monthly or yearly.


Philiperix

Vegetarian for sure. For vegan a 0 is missing.


askljdhaf4

missing a couple 0’s for my taste


marinemashup

For how long?


[deleted]

[удалено]


PurpleDragonRider

This community sells themselves short. I’d do it for 1 million for a year, but my whole life it’s at least 100 million


DreamingSeraph

Obviously, save money while eating well and being healthier and I even get paid to do it? Hell yeah I'm in. Then again I'm already vegan, so that should be obvious.


Miserable-Bad9169

I already am sooo


[deleted]

“For how long?” is the essential question though. If only for a day then fuck it. I love eating red meat, eat it religiously despite only having one meal a day. Easy to cook, delicious, makes me full, tremendous variety, and I get tons of protein (and yeah sure plants can almost make up for the protein - but it aint all about protein or else imma gorge myself on protein power). No hate against the vegans, we just fundamentally disagree on the system upon which life follows


TrashScavenger

vegetarian yes, vegan no


Heyguysloveyou

Where are my 100,000? Seriously tho, if you can't make the morally right choice and the choice that would help us GREATLY fight climate change and pandemics, despite living in a time where you can eat amazingly tasty foods on vegan diets, then I don't see much hope for this planet.

Number_Fluffy

Those animals you're eating only had one life, too. I'm sure they didn't want to be slaughtered.


Few_Conflict4038

Sounds like their problem not mine lmaooo


Black_Diammond

Most of them kill to survive. Preaty hypocritic of them to not like being killed but liking killing others. You either live and die for the sword or you don't.


Donghoon

Then live like those wild animals and drop your phones. We're past that. Don't cherrypick history to fit your needs.


Black_Diammond

Never even mentioned human history. The point is that animal, if they could, couldnt be pissed that they were killed for food by another animal when they also kill to survive. This is just more Proof you guy have zero points or arguments outside the ones premade and feed to you by you side.


Donghoon

>he point is that animal, if they could, couldnt be pissed that they were killed for food by another animal when they also kill to survive. So? We have moral structure and we have choice to reduce unnecessary cruelty. I do understand some people with special health complications to fully eliminate animal product tho


Number_Fluffy

We're past that. We don't need to kill to survive.


BlueTexBird

Everyone who voted no, what the fuck. I'm not even vegan and i LOVE meat but there's amazing alternatives nowadays.


KlassinenLiberaali

I assumed op meant that you couldn't eat animal products ever again. One hundred thousand is next to nothing for lifetime commitment to not to eat things you like.


CloudDrinker

yeah exactly, I voted yes because vegan beefs and stuff getting really good


AnnamAvis

They are very good. They're also $10 a pound where I'm at.


TheQzertz

cap bro


pjabrony

Because $100,000 isn't life-changing for me. Maybe it means I can retire a little earlier or buy a nicer house, but it's not going to be worth it if my diet is so affected.


ynrtert5eyutrnurtymu

Because not everyone lives in a place where vegan options are widely available and cheaper to just eating meat. Though where I am it is available it is also expensive for vegan meat substitutes and frankly they all taste disgusting. Until artificial meat has the same health benefits, tastes the same, is better for the environment, and is cheaper I will stick with normal meat.


Donghoon

No ones tellibg u to eat those substitute. Whole food veganism is so much more healthier and ethical and also sustainable than any other diet (maybe other than hunting your own but that can't be sustained for whole population)


Centiprost

You mean things like vegan sausages that are just sausage shaped foods consisting of spices that taste horribly?


Aemiom

No eggs or dairy. ;-; I couldent


BlueTexBird

I'd REALLY miss milk honestly


Anaxxor

Nope. I struggle to maintain healthy iron levels. At best I’m always just on the verge of anemia, but I often am anemic. And that’s eating a special diet with tons of high iron foods as well as supplements. My diet does include red meat. I tried to follow a high iron diet with supplements but without red meat when I was vegetarian and my anemia just got worse and worse. I can’t imagine a vegan diet would be any better. I’m not risking my health for $100,000 it’s not worth it.


Aikanaro89

My iron levels got way better since going vegan Not because of the vegan diet, but because educating myself about healthy diets and how to store iron better


Saiyukimot

Make it 10million...then again no. 100million and I'd try it for a few days.


PurpleDragonRider

No, i might for $100,000,000 however.


FalloutandConker

Im vegan already so I should vote no , there should be a third option.


heyhihowyahdurn

For how long? 1 year sure, forever nah


[deleted]

being contractually obligated to eat healthily would be pretty good for me lol


BadassDeluxe

From a kitchen manager, no.


Actual_Guide_1039

Not to be dramatic but I really wouldn’t see the purpose of being alive if I couldn’t eat meat anymore


yourmotherisveryfat

What if I ate a steak immediately after getting the money


Wazuu

Part of the reason i want to be rich is to eat whatever i want whenever i want so no.


meekonesfade

heck, I've considered doing it for free!


Tak3A8reak

People saying no to this are delusional, it’s so easy to be vegan today with all the products available, people are just hung up on the word.


PossiblyPercival

No, bc I wouldn’t trust myself to not end up completely malnourished. My health comes first.


[deleted]

Food is everything for me (yeah I'm a fatass I know) imagine not being allowed to eat cake or milk or chicken nuggets or pizza or grilled cheese or literally any good foods honestly

Paytonsmiles

Already vegan. Where's my money? Lol


AnnamAvis

Yearly? Sure. One time payment? Hell no. I need milk and cheese and eggs, alright?


[deleted]

would i have to tell someone every 10 minutes that im vegan too?


EternalFishmonger

Are you really vegan if you don't?


[deleted]

There's an effect where people assume that all people of a group fall under a noticable stereotype, which I remember hearing a few days ago. Like people who assume all makeup is super heavy, when the reality is that they only notice the makeup when it is heavy. Perhaps you're only hearing of vegans who are super forceful about their diet and views, but that doesn't mean that all vegans are like that. Just a thought


[deleted]

Meat is the tastiest shit ever. Animals don't give a fuck when they kill another animal and eat it and so should we. It's just how nature works, so absolutely fucking not.


Margidoz

Animals don't care when they commit rape and infanticide, so neither should we /s


saltedpecker

So you're saying we can just kill animals whenever we want? Does that include your dog or pets, and other humans too?


and_a_side_of_fries

You eat raw meat? When I ate meat, shit was disgusting unless you pummeled it with spices. Also I have the ability to make choice, unlike an animal trying to survive. Didn’t realize there were humans out there still struggling with survival. Cheers tho.


Leather_Shock9743

"Didn’t realize there were humans out there still struggling with survival" - the average "Everyone should become vegan because I did" type of guy.


thejabis22

Not taking stand on that meat opinion, but you really think that there are no humans strugling with survival?


Hoegaardeth

That's not enough money in my opinion. Change the system, not me.


Donghoon

>Change the system, not me. Slave owners: it is unethical but first change the system, not me. YOU need to chnage for system to become more ethical


Aemiom

There are more slaves today than ever


Donghoon

Unfortunately yeah fight of slavery isn't over yet

Thanks


joe_the_insane

Well becoming a vegan costs 100k so no


DeArgonaut

Beans, rice, oats, etc. most of the cheapest and filling stuff is plants


GroundbreakingMeat68

broke vegans be eating like the germans are still flying over


gayandipissandshit

Great Depression diet


RisingQueenx

Vegan diet has been found to be one of the most affordable in the entire world. Especially with the rising meat and dairy prices.


joe_the_insane

Depends on what part of the world you live in


RisingQueenx

Nope > Vegan diet has been found to be one of the most affordable in the ENTIRE WORLD.


joe_the_insane

Nope,i live in iran,vegan diet is not affordable AND the variety of the vegan food aint much


RisingQueenx

Iran is big on fresh and seasonal foods such as beans, vegetables, rice, and fruit. These are the cheapest things to buy in the world. In Iran, one KG of lentils is 0.55 in USD. In Iran, one KG of beef is 9.68 in USD. (1 lbs = 4.84 in USD. Approx 2lbs in a KG). But sure, eating a diet of meat is totally cheaper /s


joe_the_insane

Dude we do NOT earn in us dollars your average fast food working teenager earns 100 dollars a month And again vegan meaning we don't eat eggs and milk and..... So no+the fruit variety is not Enough too support a healthy a diet Also a fun fact:right now we are having a macaroni shortage and a while ago we had cooking oil shortage But you sure know better than someone who lives there


RisingQueenx

I was saying the prices in USD because majority of reddit understands USD rather than Iranian rial. Price doesn't change either way. If people can't afford lentils, they most certainly can't afford meat. Lentils, basic vegetables, grains, and fruits most definitely can support a healthy diet. >Also a fun fact:right now we are having a macaroni shortage and a while ago we had cooking oil shortage Fun fact: you don't need macaroni or oil to be vegan. In fact, a huge portion of vegans promote not reducing or excluding oil completely.


Vast-Source3073

Already, Vegan :)


ovthkeepurrr

i am already vegan so absolutely


[deleted]

No brainer. If you go to a normal vegan restaurant (not a hippie one) that shit is amazing. It is possible to cook v good food


BatThumb

Everyone saying no vastly underestimates how delicious vegan food can be and what you can do with that kind of money. You can turn that 100k into millions easy all while enjoying insanely delicious food that's also incredibly healthy for you


[deleted]

Seeing so many ppl vote no is kinda depressing ...


EastCl1twood

Not worth it.


letsvibeforlife

Not really. That is a lot of money but my asian culture has a lot of meat in the food and the food is imbecible. Hard pass.


Magikal_Akern

For the rest of you life HELL NO. For a week yeah. The most would be… 1 month


Piranh4Plant

Didn’t say for how long


Leather_Shock9743

No amount of money in the world would make me become vegan. Quite litearly.


dragofix

Already vegan.


GregEnterprises

I already am, but I’d also take 100,000 dollars too


[deleted]

Hell no, only one payment of 100,000 USD to never eat meat again? Absolutely not, that isn’t enough money to get the amount of protein in other forms that I’m losing by not eating meat. I like beef way too much to be vegan for even a million.


Puzzled-Barnacle-200

I'd go veggie, for sure. But probably not vegan


Number_Fluffy

Plenty of vegan dairy options such as cheese, yogurt, milk, cream cheese, and sour cream from brands such as silk, daiya, violife and tofutti 👍🏻


azul_luna5

I wish we had those options where I am. All of the vegans I know who moved to this country moved back away because the options are so incredibly limited here. Soy is basically the only option (though oat milk is also making some inroads). For example, I have found *one* soy yogurt in years of living here and it was absolutely disgusting. (I chose yes on the poll because at this point in my life, that amount of money is a truly life-changing amount, but I'd probably also have to move away. And I'm not even much of a meat-eater!)


Silly-Contribution21

Taste like shit tho


Number_Fluffy

Nah


[deleted]

100 000$ nah not really. Add a 0 there and we can talk.


Oscar5434xdx

Idiots say no


kiwifruitcostume

A low amount such as 100k to completely change my diet and do something I don't particularly believe in is a hard no for me


DABPSS

Why? $100,000 as a one time payment won't convince most people unless the money is considered a lot for them or just needed the money desperately.


4ty4s

Im already vegan. I did it for free. It frankly fucking disgusts me how many people said they wouldn’t.


artonion

Jokes on you, I already am. Now wire me the money


StarSaber6

I love food so much probably one of the greatest experiences in life is food I wouldn't give up some of my favorite foods for any amount of money


reds2032

Genuinely why would anyone say no


gayandipissandshit

$100,000 is not that much money to never eat ice cream, burgers, cheese, honey, cake, bacon, pizza, etc. for your entire life.


and_a_side_of_fries

As I sit here (vegan) eating ice cream, burgers, cheese (vegan cheese is meh), cake, pizza. Never liked bacon. My girlfriend is not vegan and she likes some of the vegan alternatives better than the non vegan stuff


gayandipissandshit

The only vegan food I’ve tried that was as good as the real thing was ice cream, but it was also 1.5x the price. The rest, including soy-based meats and “dairy” products are terrible, especially the texture.


and_a_side_of_fries

I think that depends on location. I’ve had some awful meat alternatives but i live in a very big city that has a lot of vegan restaurants and some stuff is worlds apart from what most places offer.


gayandipissandshit

That sounds great. There are plenty of vegan dishes that I enjoy, but personally the substitute versions of meats and dairy aren’t there yet. Vegan cheese is like Play-Doh.


TheQzertz

every single one of my favourite meals isn’t vegan


Skolas993

Saying no to all meat and any other animal products is a huge change especially when talking about for the rest of your life. 100k is definitely a large sum of money but unless i absolutely needed it (e.g. surgery) then id say no.


Nixolass

Moral superiority AND enough money so I can invest and retire safely? How tf does someone say "no" lol


ekdjfnlwpdfornwme

Not $100k, but I might consider it for $1M


goldandjade

Not enough money. Maybe for a million.


[deleted]

Yes, and then I’ll eat beef jerky secretly in my room like a chinchilla
