    Gullible idiots popularizing plant milks is great for people with dairy allergies.

    I feel this. I’ve been a lacto-ovo vegetarian my entire life, though since about 2010 or so I’ve been basically entirely plant based. With the veganism fad that went big in the 201Xs, the ease of access to vegetarian and vegan options increased so much, and it’s awesome.

    Before then, I never went to restaurants because they simply wouldn’t have food for me, and if they did, it was obscure items on the menu they never cooked, and I always ended up getting food poisoning. Now there are entire restaurants only doing plant based foods. Hell even fast food have entire menus dedicated to plant based options.

    In the end I’m still cooking much the same way I did in the past, except I guess I buy plant milks, and have access to tofu that’s already made.

    I’ve a coeliac friend who echoes the same sentiments with the anti-gluten craze.
