​What’s up, beardos?! This week we bring you a discussion that may seem absurd on the surface but gets at a lot of pressure many vegans may feel to purchase non-vegan products for friends, family, co-workers, and even strangers. Sparked by an incident in which a vegan purchased non-vegan ice cream for a crying child and was then harassed by another vegan, there are a lot of ins and outs to this one, so strap in! We also revisit the ethics of the Impossible Burger, now that it’s addition to White Castle’s menu has sparked debate far and wide.
