He's from Italy therefore in the Mafia so he gets away with it. :tard:

Haven't heard of it much, but the idea of a day dedicated to food other than hamburgers and pizza is refreshing.

Just imagine that you're birthday was on the very same day...

.....................

At the risk of creating a new topic entirely; eggs and milk didn't require the animal to die, right? So why exactly oppose eating it?

Read somewhere that dairy cows die 15 years before there time due to the stress of having to produce milk with no babies to feed.

Don't know about the hens though I assume it's something to do with the ethical implications of stealing their unborn young.

PANCAKE
 

When do you have pancakes becouse the topics about pancakes but you should of puted what do you perfure on your pancakes on this poll.

Who then, is the walrus? ahahaha.

You know what I had on Pancake Day? Glorious toast. Glorious, glorious toast.

You have a wonderful way with words sir.

Because that's what Veganism is. Not using Animal products of any kind. Who are you to question their philosophy anyway? :rolleyes:

Here's a vegan Recipe anyway... I haven't tried it, so I don't know how good it is http://www.recipezaar.com/128637

LEGENDS OF HENTAI!

"Oh, Let's go together!"

Using animal products is exploiting the animals. Kind of like depending on welfare is exploiting the taxpayer.



Ooooh, burn! Unless no one's on welfare, in which case: megafail

You have an odd definition of 'Exploit'

Wait for it...

Sigh.....blah blah blah single parent family blah blah blah mother disabled and can't work, blah blah blah in last year of high school.

Am I 'exploiting' the taxpayers? :p

You're ruining everything!

So we can conclude that Vegetarianism is a more specific subcategory of Veganism? While the former only rejects meat, the latter rejects all animal products?

On topic, all this categorisation reminded me of something. Can we call crépés (and others) pancakes, or are these completely different terms?

Wrong way around; veganism is a more specific subcategory of vegetarianism.

I thought it was about being a glutton as much as possible before the restrictions of Lent.

i cant beleive how many people havent heard of pancake day! have i just educated half of OWF's members about the tasty pancake by making this thread?

make me a Mod.

thats what the poll is asking.

you nearly choked me sir, i swallowed my coffee the wrong way.

haven't a clue, except one is made by simple peasants, and the other by posho's.

That's because many countries in this world refer to the day as the more theologically pleasing 'Shrove Tuesday'. Stop being so parochial.

Lent, which is (in theory) supposed to be "celebrated" by giving up the pleasures of food and donating the savings to charity, or church, begins with people using up all of such treats in one night. Which presumably means that at one point such treats were eggs, butter, sugar and a few other choice morsels. If we did the same today, the resultant... result would probably be lethal to all but the widest of arteries.

jesus christ, i know that matey! and i find it insulting that you think im narrow minded. you seem to be pissed off at me the last couple of replies, sort it with me through PM.

Didn’t you ever learn that double negatives emphasize the negativity, not reverse it?

I had pasta!

Weeeee! Thanking you. Now I just need to dig out all my cake ingredients.

Megafail, my friend; I signed off earlier today. :D

Indeed, but veganism is the original vegetarianism. Then veggies got lazy and stole the name, so we came up with an even spunkier one.

Hey, congratulations. Taking the leap of faith in which this implies good news on the employment front.

I'm not pissed off. That said, why on earth would you ask that why people hadn't heard of Pancake Day if you already knew the answer?

Pancake day really just isn't an official day in Denmark :( Shucks....

i said PM.

dont over complicate things, i was just joking around. ofcourse i know some countries dont celebrate it, or have even heard of it, the same goes for Christmas and other celebrations.

what i want to know is: why did you think i didnt know in the first place? hmm?

I had them with sugar. Only had 2, they get really sickly. :)

DAMMIT! I missed it! And Mum would've made crépés and raspberry syrup. Good times...

Ugh... they do (throws up)

My grandad had a feckload of pancakes and was lying on the floor moaning :P
