Isle of Wight eatery defends itself against ‘nasty’ and ‘bullying’ vegans who were furious that their diet was not catered for

An award-winning cafe has at hit out at “holier-than-thou” vegan customers saying they shouldn’t have to adapt their menu to “suit” customers who don’t eat animal products.

The Kitchen at London House on the Isle of Wight went online to defend itself against “nasty” and “bullying” vegans who were outraged at their decision to refuse to cater to their diets.

Addressing its critics, it said: “If you want vegan food, go to a vegan restaurant.”

The popular high street restaurant in Ventnor said that though it used to serve some vegan food, they decided to stop because of a “militant minority” that spoilt it for the majority.

Seems simple enough.

...Or make your own. Or start your own! Restaurants are a convenience, not a necessity.

One of my co-owkers is a vegan. He tells me the best places to eat when he's on the road is a steakhouse, because they usually have a very good salad bar.

I didn’t know salad bars were still around.

I detest them.

Makes sense. Less restaurants offer a salad bar nowadays

The vegan diets makes people angry, probably because their bodies are lacking nutrition.

Why did the vegan cross the road?

To get to the other side to tell everyone “I am a vegan.”

Unfortunately for the Europeans, they’re in the process of having NO CHOICE regarding the elimination of meat from their diets. Just look at the now-defeated Dutch farmers.

I am getting ready to go on the Whole30 diet that is not vegan but restrictive.

Not looking forward to it but necessary.

I guess I will exist on eggs and ground meat because I will be so tired from not having my Diet Coke I am not going to want to do recipes

I can see why Vegans would be angry...lolol

Vegan diet = rabbit food.

A fact many people do not know - rabbits have an incomplete digestive system, in that their intestinal biota cannot fully utilize the all-plant diet the rabbit consumes. The rabbit then passes two very different forms of feces, one a moist and highly nutritious soft pellet-like partially digested substance, and the other a much drier and largely fully divested of any food value. The rabbit re-consumes the softer and more moist pellet-like feces, and derives a full nutritional intake from the recycled matter. Also, it may be added, that rabbits have very little body fat, and rabbit stew has very little fat content.

Which may be a lot more than most folks ever wanted to know about rabbits.

I've recently come to love hard boiled eggs. They are a super food but you need to become educated on cholesterol. My eyesight has noticeably improved and I believe it's due to eating 1-3 eggs a day. Also eat at least 1/2 of an apple a day.
