But thinking eating vegan is eating a plate of vegetables every night is just clueless and part of what puts people off. So I called you out on it. Dismissing other people's views as 'ignorance' are the words of either a fanatic or just a rude individual. Nobody cares if some choose not to eat meat - get on with not having it, nobody's interested. Vince should retain a choice of fare for those visiting FGR, not impose his fanatical menu on everybody, and eat what he dictates or they go hungry. That's all most people are arguing here.

Ashton Gate didn't used to have vegetarian options, but recognise the need to give fans a choice, so now cater for them. Forest Green dont give you that option, or rather Dale Vince doesnt. Imagine the uproar if Steve Lansdown became teetotal, and so Ashton Gate sold no alcohol whatsoever . Who would be moaning then ? Haha what a childish statement. Wish city had an owner like vince.

Fair enough, I just disagree as to whether Vince should feel obliged to offer any food in particular whatsoever though. Particularly a category of food that is ethically questionable at best.

So you think what you eat at a football ground is more important than the game itself? As a non vegan/Vegetarian I’d either take my own food/eat before the game, or give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42nite Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 I usually go for the vegan menu on flights. That way you get your meal delivered before all the rest get theirs. You can enjoy the meal in peace, then sit back, close your eyes and listen to some nice music when all hell is breaking out around you. I find the butter is a bit weird, but the rest of the meal is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I don't believe in attempting compulsion, hence I don't agree with Vince. It's up to individual clubs to decide if it's financially viable for them to provide such options to cater for a tiny minority - 1.16% of the population in the UK in 2019. Most clubs probably offer chips (cooked in veg. oil) already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S25loyal Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 If your that upset about having to try different food if you are hungry maybe don’t go to the ground? If vince doesn’t agree with killing animals to eat that passionately he’s not going to do it so you can eat animals, for the sake of a few ££.

So, you're not happy when Vince chooses to "impose" (your word) his views on others, but you're quite happy for the 91 other Chairmen to impose their views on others? Why should other clubs not "retain a choice of fare"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the immortal words of Pauline Calf " If you like it, do it, if you don't like it, do it..........you might like it" In other words.......Instead of lips and ass, growth hormones, and antibiotics pumped into creatures with no say in the matter, you just might enjoy eating something pure for a change. That's not forcing you, it's educating you. And, if you have no wish to try something new and beneficial, then that, of course, is your perogative? Where have you been to eat meat ‘pumped with growth hormone and anti biotics’? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not where iI have been? , as i haven't eaten meat for 30 years, but if you do your research, you will find it turns up in beef, pork etc, and dairy products, For decades the meat and dairy industries have added synthetic estrogen and testostorone to increase the size of an animal for it's meat yield, and drastically escalate milk production. Many animals are fed a diet laced with synthetic hormones to ensure they grow at a unaturally rapid rate. I could go on, but if you are seriously interested as to what you are putting into your body as a meat and dairy consumer, all the information is out there, you just have to read? I am not being alarmist, just repeating facts that are available to all. If you are determined to stick to a diet of meat and dairy, the safe way to go is organic produce. Happy eating!
