I just watched a guy cover tinned beans in mayonnaise and call it bean salad.

Edit: This is the definition of salad people.

    I did clarify my comment. I meant any non-vegan restaurant. I reread that just now and realized it wasn’t clear.

    We do have a nice “gastro” place that has a really good selection of vegan stuff and they usually have a vegan version of their special. We are regulars enough that the girl hat runs the register knows that I will prob get the vegan special regardless of what it is. The thing that sucks is that I’ve been meaning to get their mushroom tacos again but every special when we go sounds so good. Last week they has a vegan lasagna and it was probably the best lasagna I had vegan or not.

    We have a food truck that has a pretty big menu for a food truck but the guy also made an asserted effort to have a full vegan menu too. He’s super nice and I’m a regular there too. We have one other full vegan truck too ran by 2 sisters that used to be part of our local Food Not Bombs but wanted to do the food truck thing. Leftist vegans in my shithole Texas town? What?

    But other than that, taco bell is hit and miss on if they can even get an order right and I still have to check the menu ahead of time when I go to most other places in town so I am not trying to fined something to eat on the spot.

    I wish there was more places that did what you do and try and cater to us other pesky vegans and know that vegan isn’t the same as gluten free… smh…

    Maybe for my midlife crisis I will start a vegan restaurant…

      I’ve tried to emphasize at places that if you have good vegan options that automatically gets you so many regulars. Eating out is hard for a vegan and word spreads quick if there’s good slop.
