Depends whether they're root vegans or cruciferous vegans. The cruciferous ones need a little vinegar to cut the mustiness, whereas root vegans are best parboiled and oven roasted.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Since a vegan's meat is made of vegetables and vegetable products, can vegans eat a vegan's meat and still be considered vegan?

As evidence grows for plant sentience the case for a moral sort of Vegan is narrowing.

....buy them pre-sliced in a tin and you don't need to worry about that. Rest assured it was quick at the time.

I only buy Kosher cut plants. It's more humane that way.

Also known as Alpha Lyrae, brightest star in the northern constellation Lyra and fifth brightest in the night sky, with a visual magnitude of 0.03.

It is also one of the Sun’s closer neighbours, at a distance of about 25 light-years. It is a matter of speculation as to whether the natives of Vega (Vegans) are actually vegans at all, or just striking a pose because they think it is cool.

If plants have feelings then it's OK to ignore the common animal welfare objections to meat? You'll have to flesh that one out for me Crumps.
