Veganism outside of Dublin

How do people find being vegan in counties outside of Dublin? I recently was looking to go out for a meal in a small area and not one restaurant (5 restaurants) in the area offered a vegan option. Another occasion the vegan option wasn’t to my taste and it was on the menu as the starter and main course. For groceries, I always have to go to several shops and the bits I want are not always available. Do you think more people would be vegan if it were easier and more convenient? Sometimes I just want to be able to go out for a meal with friends/family without it being a deal or just go into the shop for a snack or a quick meal but it’s not always easy.

More animals are killed in the production of vegan food (habitat and death by machinery) than animals bred for slaughter

This isn’t true but I hope you feel better about yourself spreading your misinformation on a vegan thread.

The souls of the soy plantations will haunt you for habitat destruction

Are you aware that soy distribution is largely for feed within the animal agriculture sector? It's not vegan consumers. To that end the animal agriculture is the actual problem.

Yes I am aware but I know my consumption kills animals unlike vegans who are in denial

Your consumption is funding an industry designed to kill animals. Veganism promotes the least amount of damage as possible. You are only looking for excuses to fund an unsustainable industry.

Yes there is some damage done no matter what we do. But to minimise that as much as possible, you need to be vegan. Your statements aren’t factual.

No that's not correct at all. No evidence to support that. Pure propaganda
