[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t like it when people act entitled, vegan or otherwise. I’ve hosted many vegan guests who were perfectly gracious and helpful. I also happen to have hosted several vegans who:

1) Preach and preach and try to shame and convert (yes, actually to me in my own home when I am hosting them)
2) Turn up their nose at what is on offer, especially when I have gone out of my way to purchase or prepare it (“vegetarian lasagna with vegan cheese again, it’s like no one knows how to make anything else vegan”)

I don’t categorically dislike vegans. I do categorically dislike rude, entitled people, which sometimes includes vegans.[/quote]

I usually don't go to people's homes as I am very particular when it comes to food.  If I host I ask people what they like vs. just tell them this is what they are eating.[/quote]

If I host I ask for allergens and dietary restrictions. I then serve a menu that has many options.

I have never once—not once—asked what was on someone’s menu when accepting a dinner invitation. If there is something served that I do not like, I eat a small portion, fill up on the other items I do like, and thank my hosts for a lovely evening. This is how adults enjoy the hospitality of others. Civilized adults know that dining in someone else’s home is different from dining in a restaurant. [/quote]
