Meet Brian and Dave, two Irish butchers from the Dublin Meat Company who (surprise!) love meat. And while the two are happy to admit that cows, pigs, and all other manner of animals aren’t happy about being butchered (they’re not sure if animals mind milking, though), they’re also not big fans of vegan alternatives to animal flesh, and can’t even pronounce tofu correctly because it’s just not something they’d buy at the store. So, who better to try vegan food?
In the video above, Brian and Dave try a smorgasbord of vegan fare with some pretty hilarious results. As a vegetarian myself (I’m contractually obligated to mention that in at least one post per day), I’m pretty biased when it comes to extolling the delicious virtues of tofu, but not even the most hardcore vegan will have a problem finding these guys funny, charming, and absolutely willing to try new things.
The best parts of the video, of course, are when Brian and Dave discuss whether eating vegan makes the pair feel healthier (maybe seven percent?) and whether being able to tell if something’s vegan as opposed to vegetarian is a compliment or not.
Will these dudes give up their meat-filled lifestyle to go meat and dairy-free? Absolutely not. Is watching them try the food entertaining? Absolutely.
