Yeah, there's no point in guessing...

1. Same goes for gluten free

My brother makes the biggest stink out being gluten free where ever he goes.

2. Well, "new" ones do.

Older/experienced vegans don't see the point, because people aren't going to change their minds just because you berate them about their food choices

3. And some actually do not care what other people eat.

I think people just assume all Veg*s are like that because they only know about the people who tend to be more in your face about. And it's really got nothing to do with being Veg*. It's more of a personality thing.

4. I would agree with the personality thing.

Even when I switched to vegetarianism, I only ever confronted those individuals that made fun of my choices or were mean to me, as if I had somehow attacked them (which I never did.) Some people are just assholes, no matter what their personal choices.

6. Yep, like here.

Dear Mr. Scorpio,
I sincerely apologize to you for my food choices.
Had I know how much they would disturb you, I certainly
would have consulted you first.

[RebelOne]

7. I am a vegetarian and don't care what anyone else eats.

But they should stop harassing me because I choose not to eat meat.
