Some vegans and vegetarians can be quite snide about it, and add little underhanded comments into the mix, but some are really overt with "YOU KNOW HOW THEY MAKE THAT, RIGHT?"
I knew a vegetarian who *slowly* converted to SUPERVEGAN to the point where initially, she actually ate chicken and fish and eventually she was irritating everyone in our class about "YOU KNOW THEY MAKE THOSE (it was skittles or something, I can't recall) WITH BEETLE SHELLS, RIGHT? BEETLES. HOW DISGUSTING IS THAT. URGH. URGH. YOU'RE STILL EATING THEM? THAT CRUNCH IS LIKE YOU'RE CRUNCHING BEETLES."
We all kinda just ignored her, if she was doing it tongue-in-cheek we would've tolerated it fine, but she was being genuine and it irritated us no end.

I'm a girl who loves all sorts of food
Once I went for a nosey on a vegetarian/vegan thread on here because I thought it would give me some new ideas for recipes or dishes I could try. I'm not vegetarian, I am a happy meat eater but it's always nice to taste new things 
I was so disappointed and annoyed that it was just a group of hardcore vegans bitching about how eating meat/not being vegetarian should be made illegal since there is enough vegetarian produce anyway.
Nobody is taking steak away from me!

One of my friends used to live with a vegan. Now I have no problems with vegans/vegetarians, and if I'm honest I have a lot of respect for them!
However all of my respect goes out of the window when stuff like this happens; every time she used to cook meat, he would be all "OMG THAT USED TO BE ALIVE, UR EATING ITS FLESH HOW GROSS" and similar things when she used to drink milk like "OMG ITS SO WRONG".
How rood She didn't judge him for being Vegan and in fact was always asking him questions/being genuinely interested, so I don't understand why he had to be so judgemental to her!

Not even after you've pointed it out to them repeatedly! A lot of the time I have to wait until my flatmates finish eating dinner and aerate the kitchen before I can make my dinner because the stink of fried meat turns my stomach inside out. But, of course, while complaining about eating meat being gross is very judgemental, making me sick by eating meat in front of me all the time is very open-minded and accepting.Original post by andyyy

Being open minded is not about changing what you do but about accepting that there are people doing things different from you.
And Toto I don't knoooow! Have to say though that if I would've done this where I live someone would most likely put it in this thread (;

Just because someone had a different opinion from her? I lived with a veggie and she didn't care if I was cooking meat, in fact she'd always say she could appreciate that I liked it

Your 'stomach turning inside out' is purely psychological, you being vegetarian doesn't change your sense of smell - if you feel sick smelling meat then you're being over dramatic in your own head. I'm veggie but my entire family eat meat and if I happen to smell bacon, I don't go mental opening windows. You chose to be veggie so if it upset you so much you should have gone to live with other vegetarians.
Insisting on 'educating' everyone is patronising. Yes, most people DO know how that was made, and they've decided to eat it anyway...that's allowed :P!

A food crime to me is when people put Jam Roly Poly in a trifle instead of Boudoir Biscuits/Ladyfingers/Sponge Fingers/whateveryouwanttocallthem.
SPONGE FINGERS ARE GOD.
SPONGE FINGERS ARE GOD.
I'd swap my own fingers for fingers made of sponge. Hell it'd mean I'd probably have to type on here with my nose..but I'd deal with it.
definitely chucking out the crusts of sliced bread - BEST bit for toast, normal slices go floppy by the time you eat it, the crust stays nice and crunchy!!
- leaving the crusts off your sandwich - why?!
- not eating the skin off the jacket potato - it's the best bit!
- going to subway and ordering a meat roll with no salad - salad is what MAKES a sub!!
i;m sure ill have more to write tomorrow!

A good thing to do when making potato wedges is to make far to many, so you can have potato wedges sandwiches the day after. They're better than chip butties cos of the herbs and spices you put on.

And that brings up the obvious:

It's all right, it's just that portion sizes are ridiculously small

That's kind of true, but it's also quite filling
