The Keurig and the microwave post got me thinking. we have 2 strict vegans in the office along with a few vegetarians.
My question is who the meat eaters be mindful when bringing lunch? The one vegan we will call her S says she doesn't care what people eat or warm up. For office parties she is always given a budget for vegan friendly stuff. When we donoyr summer cook out she brings her own portable grill.
Now the other vegan we will call her E is the opposite. Whenever anyone brings meat in she yells and asks them not to. She complains about the smell. Even if soneone mentions meat she goes on a rant.
Well yesterday someone warmed up pulled pork. Shr came back to the lunch area on a rampage about how she feels violated and no one cares about her. She went to the office manager and was basically told thet her rights don't out weigh others.
S tells E all the time to get over it.
E wants a meat free environment. Now I don't think that will ever happen.

S sounds like a normal person.
E sounds like a closet carnivore.

I absolutely am not buying that E really thinks that she can tell her coworkers what to eat. That being said in college I had a roommate from an Asian country. Idr where but I think Korea. She cooked the worse fish on the planet. Idk what it was. It could have been dried but it smelled up the room. Did I complain? No. But I opened windows. Perhaps your office can do the same.

I have only every heard of vegan like this never met one in real life. We have a vegan at our work and she honestly does not care. My best friends sister is a vegan and she as well does not care what anyone else does either.

I'd be tempted to bring in a meat buffet.
