What is your favorite question to answer?

Question

I've found that we often talk on here about how annoying it is to answer questions from omnis that are similar to these:

"How do you get protein?"

"Do vegetarians eat fish?"

"Aren't vegetarians anemic and pale?"

So I thought I'd ask.....what is your favorite type of question to answer for people about your vegetarian or vegan diet? I love when people ask if it really makes a difference, because then I can tell them how many lives we save. =)

What is your favorite veg*n question to answer?

Answer 1

"Do vegans/vegetarians eat animal crackers??"

C'mon people it's been asked 10 000 times already. It's just not funny or original.

"But plants are alive how do you know they don't feel pain?" "hypocrites plant murderers etc. etc." one of my other least favorite.

My favorite questions are the real legitimate ones. I especially like to answer if it's my contacts ;)

Answer 2

This is an AWESOME question!

I love answering "isn't veganism hard/ restrictive/ boring?"  I get to enthusiastically dispell the myth that vegan food is nothing but salad and tofu.  Vegans are spoiled with an embarassing variety of delicious foods, cooking and eating is unbelievably fun, and there's always something new to try.  It's not about will-power (I'm not on a diet), and it's certainly not boring.  I'm a better cook now than I ever was when I was non-vegan.

Look out, omnis:  If you choose to go there, you're gonna get an earful from me - and probably a dinner invitation and a cupcake, too!

Answer 3

Can vegetarians eat animal crackers?

Answer 4

Actually my favorite questions to answer are new veg*ns or wanting to become veg*ns who want some friendly advise. I have answered many a question from a young teen whose parents are skeptical about "allowing" them to change their dietary lifestyle. It usually goes something like this, "15 & want to go vegetarian but mom won't let me, what to do?" I enjoy these questions the most because I believe what I am writings has the most potential to do some good.

Usually when a troll asks a question it is pretty much a pointless joust. Or a repeat question about protein can easily be researched on the web as well as in YA answers. But when a person is at a crossroad and an encouraging would or a bit of technical advise is all they need to tip them in the right direction an inner sense of satisfaction is an unintended reward in an of itself.

Answer 5

My fave question to answer would be, "wow,what a fab healthy veggie diet you have,where can i get info on it"?

Yeah,i know dream on .lol

Answer 6

I like the ''I'm going vegetarian/vegan'' questions, because I love welcoming them to the world of veggieness!

Some people don't know just how delicious veg*n food is!

I must say though, I have a LOT of respect for meat eaters that make me feel accepted. I just don't like the ones who tell me to ''eat a cheeseburger''.

Of course, I LOVE fun questions!! Like ''what is your fave fruit??'' because it's escapism from the negative questions!

The worst question ever was ''Is WATER vegan?''.

*rolls eyes*

Star for you! =)

Answer 7

Whenever I get the "where do you get your protein from" question, I like to answer "same place as the cow who produced your steak gets his/her from: plants".

Answer 8

I love when people ask for ideas about what to do with certain foods like how I prepare tofu, or recipes for baked goods. It shows they're interested in expanding their dietary horizons.

Answer 9

I love when people ask what kind of stuff I eat. Not in a "what the heck can you eat?!" way, but in a "wow, I'm really curious" way. I love to cook and bake, so when people ask me about what I can make and eat, I get to tell them about all the fun recipes and stuff I make!

Then after the usually comes the "can I try that?" question. That's one of my favorites, too. If it makes people wanna eat more vegan food, I'm good to go!  ;)

Answer 10

Any non troll question. I'm getting so I skip the: protein, fish, etc questions. They are asked two or 3 times a day and I figure the if the person is to lazy to look it up I don't have the time to bother.

I like answer questions form people who are truly thinking of becoming vegetarians. I like the "where do baby carrots come from" questions too. LOL we all need a laugh. I'm getting kind of tired of "do vegetarians eat animal crackers."

Answer 11

I'm gonna have to go with...

"Do vegetarians and vegans eat animal crackers?"

Answer 12

My favourite question to answer is the ones from vegetarians who think all us meat eaters hate them and vice versa. It's laughable really. Then there's the crowd who think we personally slaughter every animal in sight viciously and eat them raw there and then.

Also the questions from meat eaters who think all the veggies live on carrots lettuce and water do my head in along with the ones who attack each other because of dietary choices and personal principles.

Answer 13

Great question! I like answering questions from people who are interested in going vegetarian or vegan, but just need some reassurance or info to help them get started. Also, I enjoy vegan-related questions like "what's wrong with eggs and dairy?"

Answer 14

My favorite questions to answer is when people ask for recipes.  I love to cook and have a ton of vegan and vegetarin recipes.

Answer 15

You forgot "Don't plants have feelings too?"

That gets asked so often, I think a lot of excellent responses have been developed as a result.

Answer 16

how can you love animals but still eat them......that's my favorite...............

Answer 17

the unexpected ones- the ones that actually make me think for a second
