Kewl! My first hostile comment!
This is very exciting news! Nearly a year and a half of running this blog and I just got my first hostile anti-vegan comment… awesome! When I started this food blog I sort of expected a lot more of this sort of negative stuff. I was pleasantly surprised however to find that nearly all the feedback I’ve received has been exceptionally positive.
A charming fellow going by the name of “Leonard Bungard” dropped by to comment on my post about the Veganizing of Anthony Bourdain recipes that’s been going on over at Hezbolla Tofu. Leonard, clearly a master of the English language, took time out of his busy schedule of competitive baby back rib eating to say the following:
“fuck vegans long live the pig eater”
Short but sweet, don’t you think? And Leonard, you are so right… I’d love to fuck a vegan! Vegans smell nice and they taste good too. The next time I meet a sweet and sexy one that I take a liking to, I might just go for it. For a single vegan gal in Los Angeles, looking for some quality vegan lovin’ can be tough Leonard, so I appreciate the encouragement.
As for the longevity of pig eaters… well Leonard, I’ll leave you to do your own research in regards to the health effects of eating pigs. Here’s a good place to start: Top 10 Reasons Not to Eat Pigs. But Leonard, what I don’t understand is why it makes you so unhappy that we vegans do not eat pigs… after all, it means more bacon for you and Anthony Bourdain, right? Clearly it’s a win-win situation for us to stay vegan Leonard: less heart disease and colon cancer for us, more chicharrones for you.
While Leonard’s eloquent commentary has now been deleted (though I will cherish it forever in my heart), perhaps you’ve got something you’d like to say to him directly? Considering that he took the time to leave his email address I’m going to assume that means he’s interested in receiving more information about veganism, the health benefits of a vegetarian diet, animal rights, cruel factory farming, etc… You can contact Leonard at his more than likely bogus email address: lbungard@gmail.com






great post! Leonard will be thrilled you posted this! The pictures are priceless…..
fantastic!

That’s too bad that he eats pork. My parents used to own a pig farm and they even stopped eating pork before they sold the farm. There is that risk of you know, getting disease infection!!!!!!! And yeah, my boyfriend is a faux-vegan vegetarian and he does taste good. wink.

OMG…”Sausage Lust”… thank you FOODEATER for the name of my next song!!!… Who, exactly, did Ant Bourdain think he was addressing with his caveman wit? He’s left himself SO wide open it’s almost unfair(I said ALMOST!!!) I’d say he’s got the brain of a sparrow, but I wouldn’t want to insult the poor bird…I guess we’ll just have to make an example of him, huh? And, yes, being a hetero vegan male I must fully concur with you, vegan girls smell nice, and, thank god, they don’t taste like chicken ;}
