To be honest, this scenario could apply to anyone with a diet designed to make them appear superior to the rest of us common folk. You might know someone who is vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free by choice, grain-free, sugar-free, paleo, or all-natural, and won’t hesitate to make you feel awful about your inferior food choices.

The attitude makes all the difference. A relative offered me a soda pop once, and I replied that I don’t drink soda. She asked why not, and I said my teeth are too sensitive for cold drinks. That put her right at ease, because it let her know I wasn’t going to lecture her about her soda habit. To each his own. This is the latest from Sarah Andersen.

Dear Neatorama,

As a vegetarian of 17 years, I have most certainly been criticized and ridiculed for not consuming animal flesh more times than I have ever said a negative word to a meat eating friend. For example, during a road trip and having no other option (back in the day there were oh-so-few options for veggies eating out) I ordered a burger w/o the burger from burger king. Waited, waited, waited while my meat eating companion finished his meal and timidly asked the cashier where my food was to which she replied 'can someone get this girl her breeeeead sandwich?!'....

Goes both ways, brothers and sisters. ✌️
