How do people know you are Vegan to start making these jokes and such?
That is funny
Reminds me of another joke:
Q. How do you tell if someone is vegan?
A. Just wait a minute and they'll tell you.
But seriously, do you not ever tell anyone you like or don't like a particular food, or kind of food? Or sometimes it does actually come up in conversation without the vegan going out of their way to announce it.

Yeah, it sometimes comes up, but I almost never tease others about their food choices unless they get preachy first.
I do have a friend, a girl in her late 20's that is a vegan, the daughter of family friends closer to my age. She is sweet, a bit introverted, and has a great personality. Our families were sharing a dinner in Tbilisi, Georgia once a few years back at a resturant, I happened to be seated across from her. Scanning the menu, I saw a "Raw Meat Sampler Plate" such as seasoned hamburger and tuna tartar(yeah, it didnt appeal to me either), so I suggested she and I get one to share, just to gauge her reaction. She didnt say anything at first, but the look on her face was pure gold. I kept it up a bit, as if I was serious. Her parents were chuckling at her discomfort, lol. Just a little fun.
My oldest daughter decided she wanted to be vegan at age 16 once, and even asked her mother to start preparing separate meals for her (that went over like a lead balloon). After a few weeks struggling with it, I had brought home a bucket of KFC after she had worked out, and she was really famished. The smell was killing her. Lol, vegan life out the window with a delicious drumstick of the Colonels original recipe.
even though i am pretty much a carnivore(member in good standing of people eating tasty animals), vegan cooking can be quite tasty as well. for instance, carls jr/hardees has their beyond famous star "burger". the patty is vegetarian, but does actually taste like real meat.
and i know, some are going to insult fact food as being what ever they are going to say. my advice is try it first.
and then there is stuff like babaganoush, very tasty and made with eggplant. dont judge vegan and vegetarian cooking until you have actually sampled it from good cooks.
I'm a borderline vegetarian. I like meat, but I am very finicky with it, love and eat tons of veggies and fruit and grains.
I have 3 vegan restaurants that I love.
But vegan CAN suck.

After dissatisfaction with the meal...
When I told her of my dissatisfaction with the meal, she morphed into an aggressive and irate woman who then started dispatching some rather vile language. Not wanting to cause a scene, I subsequently left the requisite cash on the table, which included a 15% tip, and promptly walked out. As I was walking past the register on the way out, I could hear the same woman telling the other waitress working with her that I was a "vile beast" and that I "wasn't welcome here again".
I certainly won't be coming back. One of the worst experiences I've had in quite some time.
... he didn't even mention the man tax.

I suggest reading the reviews... WOW...
You read the reviews, and you can plainly see who truly practices discriminatory behavior. ANOTHER example of accusing others of what they themselves do.
Ironically, they discriminate against transgender, and charge the man tax even if they identified as a woman.
It's clear when reading the reviews there was a LOT more wrong than just their politics. Bad food, bad service and a bad idea.

There is nothing wrong with the food itself, it's the people, the vegans especially. They are just wayyyyyy too preachy and nasty for me. I don't find that to be the case with vegetarians though. They seem to mind their business more IMO. I'm a carnivore as well, just thought I'd chime in on that lol.
my issue was that mikala43 seemed to be complaining about vegan food in his post, though as noted below not so much.

yes vegan can suck if the food isnt prepared properly, that is very true. all to often cooks tend to over cook the vegies which makes them soggy and lacking flavor and texture.
quote: "an idea that we didn’t think was all too radical, yet the way the world responded showed us how fragile masculinity is "
Progressive liberals to generalize on you, too often this is how you come across. One, you don't think your stance is radical even though many others do, and when it doesn't pan out it was someone else fault.
Just like excuse Clinton lost to Trump is because the " racists came out to vote" or "the women haters" came out to vote".
And while these women who opened the cafe represent the more extreme side of the left, since Trump won the democratic party has gone even farther left to the point some DNC politicians would pander to these women.
That's an invalid claim, to try to pin radical feminist ideas on leftist politics.
