My cholesterol is super high, so it’s been an excuse to drop them from my diet for a couple months.

Oh hell no! I’m a vegetarian because I hate animals. I heard about that guy, literal butter fingers.

Not at all. The only eggs I get are from a local chicken enclosure where my family helps out by feeding them once a week.

I’m becoming an inveg – involuntary vegan

I didn’t realize, but same. Meat, besides chicken, is becoming more and more of a treat. Even then, I get stuff with bones and save them for stock. Not vegan, I know, but definitely much more plant focused than I remember being.

LOL. I came up with inveg back in 2018 after I had to go vegan due to major heart surgery. I use it all the time but you’re the first person I have ever seen use the term other than me even though “involuntary veganism” has got to be a thing for plenty of people who’ve had a near death health issue.

I mean, I pay more for eggs. That’s it.

Yeah, it isn’t like eggs are a massive part of my food costs.

The overall increase in food prices have more impact than one specific ingredient.

I can’t get the cheapest eggs near me which is disappointing
