[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't you just eat vegan for a week? [/quote]

The point of a vacation is to have fun, and not being able to have ice cream, seafood, grilled meats, etc. is no fun. [/quote]

Sorbet is awesome, you can grill tons of veggies as well as some fruits, and you can grill tofu. Surely you can't be so stupid as to think vegan people don't have fun on vacations.[/quote]

Apologies, I should have ended my post with "to me." Doing without those food is no fun TO ME. Therefore I would never "just eat vegan for a week." Also tofu is just wretched. [/quote]

I'm not the PP, but if I said "vacation isn't fun to me without alcohol" most people would stay that is disordered. If you cannot enjoy a vacation without ice cream, seafood, and grilled meat, that sounds like a you issue that you should maybe work on, rather than a pronouncement about what is and is not fun for other people.

I'm not a fan of tofu myself, but it's absolutely ridiculous to suggest that there are no fun foods that don't involve animal products. Are you honestly sitting here saying that you do not enjoy ANY food that doesn't contain animal products? None? Zero?[/quote]

Don't be ridiculous. Part of the fun of going to a beach is getting fresh seafood. Don't act like that is disordered anymore than expecting to eat BBQ when in Memphis or KC or TX....[/quote]

+100. And fwiw I have spent one family beach vacation pregnant (so no alcohol) and one having just gotten braces as a teen (could barely chew, so couldn't eat a lot of the seafood). The no-seafood one was absolutely more miserable![/quote]

It's not like being vegan is contagious. Why do you think you can't eat seafood just because someone else doesn't eat it?
