Al Jefferson is Vegan!

Lol. Vegetarian = healthy. Vegan = not, unless properly supplemented and monitored. So for all I know Kanter and Irwing are vegetarians. If Lillard or Big Al is 100% vegan, it is not going to last long in my honest opinion. Majority vegans after few years switch back to eating animal products as their bodies just can't go against how we are evolved to eat and digest.
 
Plus article has wrong data. Based on this http://veganbits.com/vegan-demographics-2017/ only 2% in USA are vegetarian or vegan.... and vegan strictly only 0.5%.
There are many former vegans than there are current vegans; there are more than five times as many former vegetarians/vegans than there are current vegetarians/vegans. Said differently, 84% of vegetarians/vegans abandon their diet. Extrapolated out, that means that there are 8 million lapsed vegans as opposed to the 1.6 million current vegans.
 
Find this quote the most idiotic: “It makes all the sense in the world why the elephant is an herbivore,” Salley says about eating plant-based foods. “Elephants, gorillas, giraffes are herbivores. Huge bodies, they can’t process animal flesh.’’

Gorillas are not 100% vegan. They do consume insects and odd eggs
Does he know about blue whale? Sperm whale? Orca? What an idiot.

Everyone supplements their diet including non vegans so that's not really an argument. Plus it's pretty easy to supplement the few things they need.

Certainly not everyone. If you eat wide variety of vegetables, fruits, nuts, fish and dairy you really do not need any supplements. You are missing the point though...We evolved to be omnivirous... the fact that our bodies can't make Vit B12 without animal origin protein is pointing towards right diet for humans. Vegan diet is not the one.
 
We have a loud vegan at work. Some time ago, I was minding my own business having a sandwich, he sits next to me and goes "you know that humans have canines to peel fruits, not to eat meat, right?". Totally unprompted. He took it upon himself to volunteer that piece of misinformation. I argued with him a bit, he got annoyed, and walked away.

these types of people disgust me. I don't care if they are vegan or vegetarian. Just do your own **** and stop telling us what to do. Don't judge us for what we eat.
