Speaker 1: It's Mojo in the morning show.
Speaker 2: I have to tell you, you know, I've I'm not
Speaker 2: one that ever would complain about fat shaming, you know,
Speaker 2: And I don't think that i'd necessarily care if somebody
Speaker 2: ever wants to call me fat.
Speaker 1: I've always been good with whatever.
Speaker 2: But there is a new form of fat shaming that
Speaker 2: I'm not happy with, and I'm going to talk about
Speaker 2: it right now. And it's people who are vegans. Vegans
Speaker 2: are basically fat shamers. And I want to bring this
Speaker 2: up right now. And none of you guys are vegans, right, No,
Speaker 2: you were Presbyterian ones Presbyterian and pesca and pescar And
Speaker 2: what's the difference between being a vegan and whatever pescatrians fish? Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: I don't think vegans.
Speaker 3: Vegans don't even eat cheese like vegetarians will eat cheese, but.
Speaker 1: Vegans doesn't it?
Speaker 2: You know, you guys have probably have heard the old joke,
Speaker 2: you know, how you can tell if someone's vegan. Oh,
Speaker 2: they'll tell you that far right. They are always tell
Speaker 2: everybody that they're vegan. You ever notice that when somebody
Speaker 2: is a vegan, they tell you what's.
Speaker 1: The difference between them and gluten, gluten.
Speaker 2: I don't talk about gluten unless I'm ordering and I say, hey,
Speaker 2: I have to be gluten free. I don't sit there
Speaker 2: and go, I'm gluten and you got to be gluten.
Speaker 2: Vegans try to make everybody vegans. They always do that.
Speaker 2: So we have friends that are vegans and we were
Speaker 2: eating with them and I said to Chelsea, I go,
Speaker 2: I go. First off, Ever, since they became vegans, they
Speaker 2: have not become fun. They're not fun enough, Like it
Speaker 2: really is not fun like being out with them. They
Speaker 2: used to be like the wild Fun crew, Like I
Speaker 2: always felt like they. You know how sometimes when people
Speaker 2: get over the age of forty, they turn either really
Speaker 2: really fun and wild, or they turn not fun at all.
Speaker 2: They get responsible. That's kind that's kind of what they did.
Speaker 2: So we go out to eat, and the whole time
Speaker 2: they sat there asking a million questions about what the
Speaker 2: food was cooked in and how it was cooked. And
Speaker 2: then when I ordered my meal and I'm ordering meat,
Speaker 2: they literally kind of started telling me about how the meat,
Speaker 2: you know, is killed, and how it is processed and
Speaker 2: what it's doing in my stuff. They talked about gut health.
Speaker 2: If I hear another person tell me about gut health, like,
Speaker 2: I don't want that. I feel like there's all these
Speaker 2: these kind of like chic terms and cheek words that
Speaker 2: people use. Gut health is kind of the thing that
Speaker 2: everybody starts using nowadays. So I was trying to express
Speaker 2: to them that I really didn't want to hear about
Speaker 2: this by googling, ain't vegan? And I wanted to know
Speaker 2: what is stuff that people who are vegans don't realize
Speaker 2: is not vegan.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, you did your research.
Speaker 2: Dryer sheets and detergents. Many of the dryer sheet brands
Speaker 2: and the cleaners are not vegan. So I said, oh,
Speaker 2: do you use dryer sheets? And then okay, they have tattoos.
Speaker 2: I found out that tattoo ink is not vegan. That
Speaker 2: while there are some plant based dyes, a lot of
Speaker 2: the black inks are made from charcoal made by burning
Speaker 2: animal bones.
Speaker 1: Who knew.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: And then chewing gums. I said, you ever chew gum?
Speaker 2: And they're like, yeah, we chew gum from timetime, like
Speaker 2: when I have bad breath or whatever, animal derivted gluc ginger,
Speaker 2: whatever the heck, it is not to mention aspertain in
Speaker 2: some of these gums. See so I just wanted to
Speaker 2: throw that out there as a little learning lesson. Right now,
Speaker 2: do you have people that you go out to eat
Speaker 2: with and you hate going out to eat with them
Speaker 2: because they are constantly like looking at you differently by
Speaker 2: what you eat.
Speaker 1: All my people eat meat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was the only outlier, I guess in my
Speaker 4: friend group, or in my family for that matter, nobody
Speaker 4: is vegan. I was the only pescatarian, so people had
Speaker 4: to switch up their menu to accommodate my appetite and
Speaker 4: the things that I enjoyed. But I never tried to
Speaker 4: like pressure people to lay off the burgers or the
Speaker 4: ribs or anything like that.
Speaker 1: Eat what you want to eat.
Speaker 4: But when it comes to vegan, I think a lot
Speaker 4: of people are just vegan for what they eat. They
Speaker 4: don't go into, you know, the depths of it. Because
Speaker 4: if you like vegan vegan, I think you got to
Speaker 4: worry about what you shampoo your hair.
Speaker 1: I don't even think you can wear leather.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, and it seems like a possible future.
Speaker 3: Whoa I was a Seagan for ever heard of that?
Speaker 3: So I don't I don't like meat to begin with,
Speaker 3: but a Seagan only eats things that don't have central
Speaker 3: nervous systems, so like they can eat clams, muscles, scallops,
Speaker 3: but like anything with the central nervous systems.
Speaker 2: So many, I would never even think about something.
Speaker 1: Have you heard of vegetarians? We found that out yesterday.
Speaker 3: Shout out to all the studs in my d MS.
Speaker 2: And I do want, I do want you to know
Speaker 2: that they do have central nervous systems.
Speaker 1: Olivia, what's going on? Olivia?
Speaker 5: Hi?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Hi, good morning guys.
Speaker 7: Friday.
Speaker 6: So, we moved into.
Speaker 7: Our neighborhood a couple of years ago and we had
Speaker 7: a black party and we kind of set it up,
Speaker 7: and this older lady emailed me from like one of
Speaker 7: our neighbors telling me that she was vegan, and I
Speaker 7: was like, okay, that's cool, like we'll definitely have veggie burgers,
Speaker 7: you know, other things like other options. And then after
Speaker 7: she sent me like multiple articles on why we should
Speaker 7: become vegan and why like everyone else should become vegan,
Speaker 7: and I was like, okay, I don't even like I
Speaker 7: don't even know you.
Speaker 2: They tried to converge, you know, they're like scientologists, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like they try to turn you
Speaker 2: into them you know the article she sent me.
Speaker 7: I was like, where did she get these from? And
Speaker 7: like I'm happy to accommodate, but like, no.
Speaker 8: I like me.
Speaker 2: We have a we have a family member and I
Speaker 2: won't say who it is, but that when they come
Speaker 2: to our house for Thanksgiving, they want us to make
Speaker 2: a faux turkey or whatever it is, like a fake turkey,
Speaker 2: and they asked us to do it. And I look
Speaker 2: at them and they your own first. Listen, I'm not
Speaker 2: judging off everybody off of one person, but ever since
Speaker 2: she became vegan, she looks so much more pale, like
Speaker 2: she does not look healthy health. And I don't know
Speaker 2: if maybe she's just not wearing makeup because of it,
Speaker 2: but yeah, if you're coming to the block party, we're
Speaker 2: eating meat.
Speaker 1: What's going on? Angela? How you doing? Hey? Good morning.
Speaker 8: So I had a I had a philosophy class in
Speaker 8: college and she happened to be vegan. She was a
Speaker 8: teacher or whatever she brought in.
Speaker 9: She was trying to link the ties.
Speaker 8: Between veganism and Marxism, and so she she had this
Speaker 8: guy come in and he literally said, he goes, my
Speaker 8: method is scream like scream teaching.
Speaker 9: So he's screaming at us for three hours and showed
Speaker 9: us and showed us an animal slaughtering video. And if
Speaker 9: we were wincing in the video, we needed to question
Speaker 9: our morals and question our choices in life to why
Speaker 9: we were, you know, turning away and like it was
Speaker 9: the most wild experience in my life.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's crazy. First off, that's wild. That's an assumption
Speaker 2: that you would sit there and go, oh my god,
Speaker 2: that's crazy. But also the idea that they brought a
Speaker 2: guest with them, like a guest speaker, to come and
Speaker 2: try oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah, no.
Speaker 8: I definitely once I got because it was at OCC
Speaker 8: and once the semester was over, I got a phone
Speaker 8: call from the admissions office and they're like, yeah, we
Speaker 8: would love to hear your feedback on your careerience.
Speaker 2: I'm like, let me tell you, Wow, that's amazing. What's up, Sophia,
Speaker 2: what's happening?
Speaker 6: Hey, how's it going guys?
Speaker 1: It's great. Hey.
Speaker 2: By the way, the mojo on the morning show is
Speaker 2: one hundred percent vegan free.
Speaker 1: We're free of all vegans. Go ahead, what's going on?
Speaker 6: Fine with me? So I got these new people working
Speaker 6: at my work and I asked one of them if
Speaker 6: they were vegan, and they were not, and they were
Speaker 6: extremely extremely offended by And I guess, and so I
Speaker 6: guess that saying someone is vegan when they're not is
Speaker 6: an insult.
Speaker 2: Oh real, Oh so they got it? Well, what made
Speaker 2: you think that they were vegan? Like, why would you
Speaker 2: ask that?
Speaker 6: I feel like they just have a look, you know
Speaker 6: what I mean.
Speaker 1: What's the look? Describe the look?
Speaker 6: My god, Let's say, if it's a girl, for instance,
Speaker 6: they're gonna have like short hair, maybe their hairs dyed
Speaker 6: a certain color.
Speaker 3: Yeah, a wild color, probably grown out their armpit hair.
Speaker 2: Exactly by the way, you are racist, against it against
Speaker 2: I was watching to know that what's going on, Courtney?
Speaker 1: How you doing?
Speaker 10: Hi?
Speaker 5: Good morning, Happy Friday?
Speaker 1: Oh yes, what's up?
Speaker 5: I am vegetarian and gluten free and I my husband
Speaker 5: is Italian and when we went to Chicago to visit downtown,
Speaker 5: we talked at his family's deli and he was two
Speaker 5: fears to tell them that I was gluten free and vegetarians,
Speaker 5: so he ate my entire portion on my plate just
Speaker 5: so that he did not have to tell them that.
Speaker 2: I was veget Italian families would kill you if you
Speaker 2: walked in and told them that.
Speaker 5: I know, thankfully the eighteen years that we're still together,
Speaker 5: but thankfully you made it through. But it and they
Speaker 5: don't have little plates, they're a big plates.
Speaker 2: I would love that, by the way, Like I actually
Speaker 2: do think that that would be kind of cool. It's
Speaker 2: like to have your spouse be whatever it is so
Speaker 2: that if there is food there, you can eat theirs.
Speaker 1: What's up, rosy high, Hi, good morning, good morning. What's
Speaker 1: going on?
Speaker 5: So I'm a lunch lady and we have a little
Speaker 5: kid in Portray who's not allowed to eat meat and
Speaker 5: faily does it for religion purposes.
Speaker 2: Okay, now I understand that it's part of their religion. Yeah,
Speaker 2: how do you all accommodate?
Speaker 5: Well, we'll give them like an uncrustable or pizza and
Speaker 5: no meat, you know, Bosco stick.
Speaker 1: You know what saying? Bosco stick is meat free?
Speaker 10: Is it?
Speaker 3: What?
Speaker 1: Is it? Just cheese and sauce?
Speaker 4: So good?
Speaker 2: Okay, So the kids got unbelievable blood pressure though, it's
Speaker 2: like it's like off the charts from all that high
Speaker 2: sodium crap that he's eating. Now, thank you for the call.
Speaker 2: We appreciate it, all right, one last call, April.
Speaker 1: What's up, April?
Speaker 10: Hello? I had an interesting story y'all reminded me of
Speaker 10: back in high school. A friend of mine was a
Speaker 10: vegan and teita and everything, but her hair and everything
Speaker 10: was falling out because.
Speaker 5: She wasn't getting nutrition.
Speaker 10: The family that she stayed with wound up hiding meat
Speaker 10: nutrition and she never knew for years.
Speaker 2: It would hide meat in things that she was eating
Speaker 2: to just get her some meat in her ba. My god,
Speaker 2: how did you guys find out about that? But she
Speaker 2: didn't find out about.
Speaker 10: That well, like military families and stuff when we all
Speaker 10: hung out and band camp and everything, so we definitely
Speaker 10: used to talk about it, and then it was you
Speaker 10: know later like after graduation and people hung out. Wow,
Speaker 10: that the true stout finally.
Speaker 2: That's amazing though, that they were worried about her so
Speaker 2: much they were hiding then.
Speaker 1: Do you know if there were any vegetarians at
