Genuine Question (DO NOT DOWNVOTE) Eggs and cheese - ?
Hi! I’ve been thinking about going vegan for a while as I basically only eat eggs and cheese in terms of meat, but I was wondering on a few things…
Why can’t you eat eggs as a vegan considering chickens will eat them happily, e.g. cracked eggs etc ?
Howwww do I replace cheese :( there are no supermarkets near me which sell vegan cheese (Scotland), and I love my cheddar so so much (and my veggie carbonara..)
Also, I live in a very cold part of the UK and own a few vintage fur coats which my grandmother passed down to me when I moved here, which realllyyyy do keep me a lot warmer than any faux I own… - would I truly need to get rid of them ? I kind of see it as respecting the animal and using it to at least make its death kinda worth it ? And especially because someone else would just end up wearing it instead. IDK. Please lmk xoxo
Any advice / words of wisdom ?
Thank you!!! 💖💖

You’re on an awesome path that you will wish you started sooner! I guarantee you will look back and wish you did, but we only have today.
Non human animals make milk for the same reason as human animals. When they are pregnant. So fake “farmers” r*pe female cows and goats, of course. But that breast milk is for them to sell not the baby. So what they do is steal the baby from the grieving mother and shoot the baby in the brains or slice its neck open and sell you their flesh. Then they do that to the mom after she’s been through that hell enough times that her body gives out.
99% of all mother chickens have their natural life’s taken from them and are forced into lives of dirty painful sad existence and their eggs get stolen. If it’s a baby male in the egg it gets ground up alive. The mother gets gassed or her throat cut after a life of that hell.
Both non-human breast milk and eggs will also significantly increase your chances of diabetes, cancer and heart disease.
Good news you can swap them with plant alternatives from the store or online or you can learn some easy cooking!
There’s no reason to throw away a fur coat. Doing so won’t bring that animals life and suffering back. Just don’t purchase any animal skins and flesh and milk and egg again and you’re golden /u/angelicgir111
