Just when you think we have reached the height of stupidity, Epicurious (an astonishingly stupid name to begin with) decides to cancel beef because... climate change.
Today we announced that Epicurious is cutting out beef. It won’t appear in new Epi recipes, articles, newsletters, or on social. This isn’t a vendetta against cows or people who eat them. It’s a shift about sustainability; not anti-beef but pro-planet.
Our mission hasn’t changed. As always, we hope to inspire home cooks to be better, smarter, and happier in the kitchen. We understand you’re going to have questions, and we’ve tried to anticipate some of them. We’re also here to continue the conversation.
This is not a cooking site, it is a cult.
Every organization populated by pronouns types eventually becomes indistinguishable, it's the same BLM, climate change, feminism blather that you can't tell from any other or an activist organization.
this but unironically
A vegan coworker took me to this vegan restaurant he used to frequent, where everything was vegan versions of recipes that normally would contain meat (eg. vegan burgers, vegan buffalo wings, vegan mayonnaise, etc...). But it was all heavily processed, and I remember telling the guy "why do you come here to pretend you're eating meat but you're eating a bunch of unhealthy processed crap? Aren't you better off finding dishes that aren't pretending to be something they're not?"
Another time I went to this bbq restaurant with another vegan coworker, and the only vegan thing on the menu was a "vegan burger" very similar to the plain impossible burger you described. I had to laugh when I saw this thing, because they clearly had no desire to cater to vegans at all; but I felt bad I dragged this guy along to this restaurant and he had to pay money for it.
