Most people really don't care all that much what other people eat. Most people are willing to try something different from time to time, but at the same time most people enjoy certain traditions, especially when it comes to holiday foods. That said, there are those among us who abstain from eating meat. For these people holiday food traditions can be problematic, esepcially when it comes to holiday parties and get togethers. To further complicate things, while there are quiet vegans who just avoid eating meat without drawing attention to themselves, there are also vegans who want the world to know that they think it is immoral to consume the flesh of any kind of animal. Do you find these people annoying? Do you admire them? Are you one of them?
