      I’ve met people like this. They are real and usually not invited back.

      Edit: same to anyone claiming to be allergic to msg! Mfer I just saw you drink a bloody Mary!

      My ex’s Mom is a vegetarian (who also doesn’t believe in using GMOs or a microwave) and her Dad has celiac and legitimately can’t do gluten.

      I hate trying to cook for them, and I REALLY hate it when they cook for me. Her Dad made these “dessert” balls that are made from flax seed and sadness the first time we met and I pretended to like them to be polite. Now he always makes me a bunch of them and I have to choke them down with a smile. I’ll bee seeing them Friday and know I get to look forward to chomping on birdseed.

        i use a lot of flaxseed and have experienced the “ah shit too much flax” very often

        flaxseed-based dessert should be an internationally recognized war crime

        Then you have people from the opposite end of the spectrum. One time I received “protein cookies” from a friend and it was just baked chocolate whey protein powder 🤣. You’d expect something like that to work okay-ish, but it was a very, very sad cookie with way too much sweetener.

          Because he’s a very sweet man and really enjoys sharing them with me. I’m not gonna take that away from him.

      Also the reply says the recipe is for an egg custard tart. Why would a vegan even be looking at a recipe like that?

        My wife was gluten free for awhile for health reasons on doctors orders. She would try to make the most outrageous gluten free versions of food because she missed them, but they were always terrible. I kept telling her, instead of making a bad version of a good food, make healthy food taste good.
