    Would a vegan/vegetarian buy and cook meat if they hosted a BBQ?

      I was vegetarian for 11 years, fully plant based for 2, and I did cook meat at events with people who ate meat. No demographic is a singularity, though, and there are many veggie folk who wouldn’t, either on ethical grounds or on grounds of having no bloody clue how to cook meat properly.

      I mean maybe, maybe not. Completely different argument though. You don’t have a moral or ethical opposition to eating food that is vegetarian or supporting it as an industry. (Or, at least, you shouldn’t and if you do then I have questions)

      But they’d make sure that there were gluten free buns if there was someone who couldn’t eat gluten, which is a more apt comparison.

      Probably? I don’t eat meat at home save for very specific occasions and I would but, you know, there are a lot of different people out there.
