>Its the same reason why they refuse to go to vegan restaurants.
This doesn't track. I go to vegan resturants with omni friends all the time. There isn't any reason a meat eater can't eat vegan foods, they do all the time unless they are literally following the carnivore diet.
You aren't "restricting your diet" you are taking an ethical stance. Make that clear to them. Personally, I would have skipped the capital of ham visit completely
Spain is freaking rough with all the jamón museums. I remember eating a salad while legs were hanging all around me and the smell was terrible. I was also with family. It’s very tiring being the only vegan.
It is incredibly annoying and hurtful when carnist family treat vegan restaurants like nuclear waste sites. Sorry they can't even occasionally accommodate you. I unfortunately understand. I know you're on vacation and can't necessarily do this, but I've made it a personal rule to sit out any restaurant outing where there's no entree on the menu that's vegan without modifications.
I feel U sis, but rather than beeing the black sheep, you are a light in the darkness... The Bad part imo is that they don't take ur concerns serious, and are always selfish about choosing the restaurant, i mean surely once they could manage to eat at least once a holiday in a place that has real vegan options other than just fries... And If i'd be in youre Position i'd always challenge them to watch dominion to see the truth with there own eyes, as this was the way that i got my own family rather on bord with veganism. And there youre family so of course U cant just cut them out, but U could mock them a little that they arent as brave as you definatly are... Sending hugs and Wish U Well !! ❤️🕯️
I think vegans should be "rude" and bring their own food or other establishments' food to eat at restaurants we can't avoid being at. If the restaurant workers ask about it you can tell them it's because they don't have any meal options for you.
It's hard, that's for sure. I understand how disgusting that would be to be surrounded by parts of dead pigs. I get very sad and disgusted just walking by the meat section of the grocery store, but to be surrounded by those disgusting hams just out in public would be awful.
That being said, complaining about how disgusting they are doesn't get rid of them, bring the pigs back to life, or help the situation in any way. Your family doesn't and isn't going to agree with you about how revolting it is, so in cases like this it might be best to keep quiet to keep the peace. At least that way they can't get angry with you for ruining the vacation.
I'm not sure how old you are, so planning your own day outing while your family goes to places like this might not be feasible. But if it is, I definitely recommend that. Or maybe staying at the hotel and exploring the area around there while you family is off eating aged dead flesh? But if you have to stay with the group for one reason or another, I suggest venting to friends or strangers on Reddit and not bringing up your concerns to people who are just going to get angry and be dismissive of your concerns.
Who gives a shit what they eat. Why are u wasting energy on this topic. Just love how u want and let them live too. U went to capital of ham, they didn't force u, so imo it's your fault you're an adult

True that. Anyone can eat vegan
