I got into Veganism about 8 months ago now, and it was much easier than I thought it was going to be. Where it got difficult for me was when food was getting wasted. I have always been really good about not wasting things, and even eating other people's food if it was going to waste. Problem is nobody else around me eats vegan. At first I would eat the food anyway, and just continue eating plant-based as I normally would, but I've reached a point where I don't even want to eat animal product at all, so it goes to waste. Has anybody else had, or have, this problem, or is it just some autistic "quirk" I have involving inefficiency and waste.
(also happens at restaurants on the rare chance that I actually go, get something, and they get the order wrong)
It's not your fault that the people around you aren't vegan and that they waste food. You're already doing well by being vegan. You can instead just try to not waste your own food!
Already got that last part down. I don't remember the last time I threw my own food out 😅
