I had cheese put into my food before, but now I was given meat-meat and not only once but twice (different places).

It wasn't even by people not understanding what veganism is, it was just a very blatant swap.

Sure, I got money back, but I'm wondering: has the acceptance of vegans gone down and malice towards us gone up? I would've thought it would've gotten better over time.

I'm asking because I'm so far removed from the vegan community I forget I'm vegan because the store being "empty" for me is the norm, as is checking labels etc; I've no clue whether other vegans are facing similar issues as of late.
