Unfortunately, due to various issues, health conditions, food allergies, not everyone can go vegan.
There’s also massive runoff from industrial chicken farms into rivers in certain regions.
Industrialised animal agricultural is barbaric and needs to end.

It’s the first I’ve ever heard that there are medical reasons to eat meat. People with allergies can cut out the food triggers. All animal farming needs to end. Your local Farmer Jones sprays his fields with animal shit which then gets into the local water just like big-farma.

Someone with multiple allergies and digestive diseases would fit this profile. No gluten, soy, legumes, peanuts and tree nuts.
What about autistic people? Some have very specific dietary needs due to sensory issues.

Are these theoretical “someones” - or actual?
I’ve been a vegan since around 2000 and keep up with the issues. I’ve not met anyone in real life or seen anyone online who has these issues. People with ASD can and do change their diets, too (and I speak with direct experience about this).
