(not my pic)

Honestly, it’s one of my favorite foods. I’ll eat a portobello mushroom in just about anyway. I love the burgers, stuffed mushroom ideas like you see in this picture, eating them in pasta, on top of pizza, and in any kind of sandwich, really. Sometimes, for sandwiches, I’ll slice them super thin and have them imitate deli slices in a way. I add hummus, nooch, and seeds for more flavor and protein, and I like to use crunchy vegetables like peppers and onions (I typically eat them raw with my mushrooms to keep them very crunchy). If I add leafy greens, arugula is my go-to.

    The point of that note is that I wanted to clarify that I want vegan recommendations in particular. The “obv” part stems from the fact that people on HB seem to mostly be familiar with the fact that I am a vegan user.

    However, this may have been shortsighted of me because you seem to serve as an example of one who has misinterpreted.

    I know veganism is a subject that unreasonably tilts a lot of people here, but if it helps you to feel better, your critique is over something I never intended.

    I guess I can see where such a misinterpretation comes from, though, so I can edit the title to prevent it from happening again.

      A user accurately pointed out that the four-second-long video I just posted that was clipped out of a Trump speech was entirely lacking context, so I had to find out what other brilliant obseservations have come from this great mind and checking the profile immediately led me here.

      Your original title really wasn’t that hard to decipher, at least not for someone who is not deliberately searching for a challenge.

        I don’t particularly care about your half-assed, sarcastic apology, and the passive-aggressive “main character lore” bit says more about your defensiveness than it does my post.

        Yes, all of my threads are vegan. I already acknowledged it was presumptuous to assume everyone would know that, but that does not subtract from the fact that your reaction wasn’t just pedantic—it was a bad-faith leap into hostility.

        You invented a narrative (“This implies only vegans can enjoy mushrooms!'”) that no one else interpreted from the three letters, “obv”. Not a single person read that as shade except you. That’s not me having “main character syndrome”—that’s you telling on yourself.

        If a vegan mentioning veganism without even criticizing the ethics of animal exploitation triggers this much projection, maybe interrogate why you’re so desperate to spin this into some narrative about vegan moral grandstanding. This is a food thread, not a c/vegan post discussing rhetoric.

        Next time, try assuming oversight before malice, or just scroll past. Either way, spare me the faux-apologetic sarcasm.
