Random thoughts float through my brain from time to time.
Today I pondered------does a Vegan feel bad eating an animal cracker? Confused

Well, reaching for my next weekend set….

I think butchers who sell meat are disgusting , but those who just sell vegetables and fruit are grosser.

Maybe if the animal cracker’s sugar is filtered through bone char. Is recreational weed legal in Iowa now? Laughing

You know how to tell if someone is a vegan? Just wait, they’ll tell you.

Even though I consume my share of meat, why does vegetarian vegetable soup taste better than beef vegetable?

Well---our little town has a lovely park named "Weed Park", so there's that.

(actually named for Dr. James Weed who donated the land 125 years ago)

My vegetablarian friends oft ask me to try vegetablarianism. They offer me some bean protein concoction, and say try it. My reply is, ok, I will try it, but only if you try a bite of some delicious medium rare steak. They always back down on that offer. Puts a smile on my face every time.

I have posed this question to my vegan offspring in the past trying to be humorous.

I knew instantly that I was had when they responded with, "Depends how there made dad".
They are not dumb.

On that vain, I have wondered if our range of hearing is just too limited to pick up the scream of a vegetable as it’s being chopped up and eaten alive.

I enjoy eating greens, especially ones that pigs have converted naturally to bacon.

If the Beetles sang Temporary Secretary, I always wondered how the Rutles missed out on Vegetarian Veterinarian.
