/c/food is basically /c/veganfood at this point, and is all but being moderated as such with meat posts requiring NSFW tags* and pinned threads pushing veganism. /c/omnivore (or something along those lines) would be an explicitly non-vegan food community so there just doesn't have to be interaction between vegans and non-vegans wrt food posts.

* Despite members of the community expressing multiple times that we didn't want that. And the thread announcing it was locked immediately.

Sorry this borders on /c/strugglesession, but this is still the right comm for this. We shouldn't struggle session about the merits of veganism here; just discuss whether there should be an explicitly omnivore community.

    Nope I have cut out all petite bourgiousie luxuries that were only made available through colonisation. No chocolate, no tea, no cashews, no coconut. I do use sugar but it's from beets grown in my country. I do not think my personal choice has any effect but I got to live authentically to my beliefs.

      No corn, no tomatoes, no peppers....those are all New World crops, and if you eat them you are engaging in colonialism. So I hope you hold true to that, too.

        There is a difference between crops that were brought back and made into staples 400 years before I was born and buying crops from countries that are exploited and causing ecological damage currently.

      You mean you don't pocket mulch?
