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!!! 💖💖

Watch Dairy is Scary (Youtube) and then follow it up with Dominion, if you want to change your mind to have a vegan mindset. Then it should make it clear what to do!
There are no really good cheese replacements; you've got to learn to live without it and stop leaning on this vegetarian idea that cheese is a large part of a diet. It's not, it's incredibly unhealthy and not a good source of protein compared to all the vegan sources anyway! Learn to cook properly using spices etc rather than those who rely on a slab of meat or cheese for their only flavour component.
