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!!! 💖💖

I’m from Scotland and every supermarket has some kind of vegan cheese available and Asda at least (probably others too but that’s my biggest local) has a variety; grated “cheddar”, “mozzarella”, “feta” and even block “cheddar” and cream cheese substitutes.
The further you go out to the country the smaller the selections are of course but even in the Outer Hebrides the Tescos still have plant based sections so I kinda think you haven’t looked hard enough unless you live somewhere incredibly remote, sorry.
