Top 5

Victoria, Hamilton, London, Windsor, Ottawa.

That's all the article actually ranks.

Also:

Ottawa's total vegan restaurants (203) was beaten only by Vancouver, which ranked in eighth place.

Where the hell is "London City"? Do they mean London? Because I've lived here for decades and I've never heard it called that once.

Also I'm glad to see we're ranked in the top 3 though. There are so many more options here than there used to be even 5 or 10 years ago.

I mean... "London City" is a lot better than "fake London", no?

I really don't mind eating Vegetarian meals, but Vegan is too far for all but a handful of meals.

The lack of dairy is my cutoff point.

That being said, I'm not a Vegetarian, I just make vegetarian meals regularly for my family because they enjoy them. I also make a lot of reduced meat meals, where it's a flavour component rather than a significant nutritional component. Like throwing 30g of Bacon in a stew per serving, or halving ground beef with tofu on a rice bowl.

I don't get why people are down voting this. Your approach is a perfectly acceptable blueprint for reducing meat consumption. Getting upset at you because you haven't fully embraced veganism is letting perfect become the enemy of good enough.

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 months ago

I agree, reducing meat consumption is all heading in a helpful direction. But I do get a bit irritated by how every mention of the word "vegan" triggers someone to pop up saying "Here's why I'm not a vegan." It seems defensive, irrelevant, and a bit self-centred. So I wouldn't assume all the downvotes reflect vegan purism.

lol when I went vegan I used a lot of meat substitutes to get me over it. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good though!

How do you know someone isn't vegan? Don't worry, they'll tell you.

[–] yannic@lemmy.ca 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Vegan-friendly here:

Revealed? Don't worry -- They'll tell you who they are.

[–] villasv@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 months ago

Amusingly the first reply in this post to self-identify is a non-vegan explaining why they're not vegan.

This joke has always been silly but nowadays it's ironically reversed
