:vegan-edge: Veganism isn't a diet, it's about animal liberation.
Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose

My dad watched Bizarre Foods back when that was on the air, and there was an episode with "chinese stinky hairy tofu" which is just fermented tofu. To this day, anytime tofu is near him he is compelled to bring up the phrase "stinky hairy tofu" and refuses to ever try it. Actual child behavior.
Does he like cheese? That's just "Anglo stinky moldy milk". Like, I don't doubt the actual fermented tofu has an acquired taste to it,but that is so obviously not regular tofu. People complain tofu has no taste, not that it tastes putrid!
lol thats the thing too! We have some Alaskan and some Scandinavian heritage so fermented seafoods aren't uncommon, and hes a big fan of limburger, the go-to stinky cheese. Its just the cognitive dissonance of "tofu=nasty" or whatever and he's unwilling to even try to change.
