I left yoga class in NYC the other day with Bryce MacPherson (can’t use his real name) who I’ve known for quite some time.
We walked by one of those doughnut stands.
I’m not sure the last time you’ve been to Manhattan but those doughnuts sure do smell good.
I got myself a doughnut.
Bryce quickly muttered, “Y’know, I’m vegan.”
“Cool Bryce,” I said enjoying the first bite of my chocolate doughnut.
Bryce continued, “That doughnut is fried in oil, made with butter, white refined sugar, and bleached white flour. It’s disgusting.”
But it sure did taste good.
Bryce went on, “Eating just one doughnut will boost your trans fats intake to its daily limit and throw off your blood sugar, not to mention the death and destruction that went into the making of that doughnut.”
Let me just say, Veganism is the Most Worthy Cause and I aspire to become vegan someday soon. But it was fast becoming clear that Bryce is a Vegan Nazi. (I use that term lightly being that my grandparents were European Jews who escaped the Nazis during World War II)
Bryce kept chattering, “David, that doughnut won’t nourish you in the slightest and you’ll be hungry again soon.”
A Vegan Nazi loves to tell you they’re vegan, and shove (and I mean SHOVE) down your throat the fact that when you consume animal products you are a disgusting person who will die young.
Vegan Nazis are bad for the Vegan movement and they crush your buzz, especially if you get a buzz off food.
Bryce still had more to say, “David, all said and done, you need to lose weight and that doughnut isn’t gonna help.”
