Too bloody right! And you left out ; can you post a pic of the ingredients / how much is it / which particular branch etc and so on. So I don’t share anymore.

Ahh my dearest friend!!! And still you go on!!! You forgot this one:
YOU: Yay!! A new vegan product!!
SOMEONE: Discussing a completely different issue/topic that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the product, any of the ingredients or even advertising their own cooking course ๐คฃ๐๐
but still we love you and your lovely sense of humor, as well as your deducatiin to enlighten us on our vegan path!!! ๐ค๐
๐๐คฃ itโs either laughing or crying… and I can tell you I only feel like one of the two!
Well said!! Ainโt that the truth๐๐ You should see the looks I get sometimes if I dare mention that Iโm vegan- this self-righteous pettiness freaks me out and gives us all a bad name. ๐
