This was such a hostile environment they set up. You're a freaking saint for just staying calm and collected and not letting the constant interrupting stop you from putting all your points so succintly and clearly. The vegan community is so lucky to have you Ed.
@JuiceTubes I mean the "plant protein doesn't exist" guy was an absolute moron, but all 3 were aggressive as hell, and the fact that he doesn't even LOOK like he's losing despite all that is actually very impressive
@@numptyblob not true, some cruciferous plants are known for preventing the absorption of iron but there are plenty of plant-based sources of iron that the body can absorb
So the carnivores are concerned that plant-based food is taking the form of sausage or bacon, but not concern that the original sausage and bacon is established by slaughtering animals in a slaughterhouse. We're officially in the Twilight Zone
Not to be rude but two of people on the panel were a cheeseburger away from a heart attack, and the other wasn't a good look of health either. Then there's Ed who out witted them all and much easier on the eyes than the rest. Great job Ed!😊
They just want to hear themselves talk while they ignore the conversation to think of the next thing they want to say. Its rather pathetic and embarrassing to watch these interviewers behave like children throwing fits to get their way.
Dude hasn't ever given this topic a minute of real thought. At least the other 3 were coherent, I barely understood what this guy was trying to say. Like wtf was the cabbage question?
It's interesting how people suddenly become concerned about health when it comes to veganism. They are sitting there, overweight and obviously didn't care that much about their health before. Thank you Ed!!!🙏💚🌱
yup there's burgers, hotdogs & fried chicken & pizza on like every street in America and no one ever gives eachother shit about it but when a vegan walks in they're all become health experts.
All they did was focus on themself..! Trying to defend their meat cravings. Not listening to what Ed was saying. You were ones again brilliant Ed! I bought your book, can’t wait te read it.
@nebulaaah that Mike is an absolute t**t. He even proved how good vegan sausages are, before trying to back track after being told the sausages he'd tried were vegan, yet before being told he said they were very tasty.
It's so funny how they call vegans 'bullies' despite constantly interrupting you with arguments that make no sense and not letting you speak. "Fake vegetables!?" As always Ed you're a huge inspiration and it's great seeing how calm and composed you are against these people.
Hi Ed! Don't know if you read these... I am an English teacher and I've been using this video for the past couple of weeks to teach my students about logical fallacies and how to debate. It's been particularly useful because the vast majority of my students are meat eaters. The two adjectives used to describe you most have been 'calm' and 'prepared'... (at least a few of my students also mentioned 'handsome'!)... Both of my sons are already vegan and I have been trying for their sakes... Now that I've watched several more of your videos, I can't eat meat anymore. I think the truth of the thing is that the only honest answer for eating meat if you're educated, is that your pleasure outweighs the rights of animals to survive... all other arguments fall apart. I can't do it... I get more pleasure from allowing animals to live.
@@rugbystories3344 Nobody is forcing you. And God also gave us rocks, do you eat them? God also gave us empathy and intelligence. Meat eating is a choice, sure... plenty of immoral choices we can make. Good luck.
@@theportugeeza God said specifically in the bible that we can eat animals 🤣🤣🤣, i don't know which God you believe in but clearly it's not the one i believe in so like i said you don't eat meat, good for you i do and according to the bible it's not immoral so .....
@@theportugeeza 🤣🤣🤣, this is what happens when you don't have a clue about what you are speaking about and just pick quotes from random christian lesbian ticktockers (if there is anything such as lesbian chistian in the first place 🤣🤣) but lemme educate you, you are talking about Leviticus 11, what you are not aware of is that those are ceremonial laws that were meant for the isralites in that specific time of history to show they were different (God's people) and after the messiah we are no longer bind by ceremonial laws because Jesus bridged the gap between isralites and gentiles and anyone who believes in him becomes grafted into the Israel branch, so make sure you know what you are speaking about before trying to lecture me on a faith you have no clue about
I've been vegan almost 6 and a half years. And I cannot fathom how Earthling Ed keeps putting up with these ignorant buffoons. Kudos and much respect to him.
I think with experience, you learn to look beyond people's gut reactions to veganism and understand that you yourself were probably in a similar position as them at some point. At 6 years, I was still what people would call "somewhat militant" with my veganism and angry at people. But now at 13 years, I've always found the "live by example" and argue calmly is much more productive as it makes people see you less as an adversary. Ed seems to have perfected this calm and reasoned approach, which we can see has been quite successful.
@@elise3455 I can't even begin to wonder how many times you tell yourself you are right to remain convinced. Life consumes life to create more life. Those are the rules, I did not make them up. So you have the burden of explaining why you will shed crocodile tears over pigs and cows but insects are fine. All of these animals are sentient so what is the factor that makes a life worth moral consideration? You are making the claim, you have to support it. Furthermore, everyone starts as a baby eating meat. So the idea that you are a heroic infallible champion for choosing plants now is a joke. You're a hypocritical narcissist.
“I have respect for vegans but…” that’s just a nice way of saying I don’t care about what you have to say, I’ll continue being a disingenuous animal eater because Im too comfortable with my habits
I have respect for vegans but… i was a vegetarian for some time (not vegan) and found that i was healthier and felt better eating meat. I had more energy, and feel it nourishes me much better than a plant based diet can. Everyone is different and have different dietary preferences and requirements. Stop imposing your preference onto everyone else and trying to make everyone vegan.
@@rudy8409 feelings arent evidence. The overwhelming scince demonstrates well planned plant based diets are healthier. But thats actually irrelevant becuase Veganism is about ethics, not diet. And nobody is making you go vegan, thats impossible. How about you stop putting pigs in gas chambers. Youre imposing your oppression and sexual abuse on animals
@@rudy8409The most important thing is to plan. Meat is much more calorie dense than beans or tofu. Eating a healthy plant based diet necessitates eating a larger volume of whole foods, so if you ever try again, make sure you're eating the same daily calories you're used to. People who don't have a strong enough motive to be vegan, and just do it because it's a trend or want to go on a diet, tend to not plan and then fall off, beacuse well, trends change all the time, and there's only so much time that one can "go on a diet". But veganism is an ethical position against animal exploitation. Only those who truly feel that postion in their hearts can be motivated to act accordingly. When people say "i was vegan for a month" what they should say is "i ate a vegan compatible diet for a month". They weren't vegan, they just tried to act as one, and it's hard to try to be someone you're not.
I have no idea what point he was even trying to make there, lol. Incoherent. For someone who has had so much exposure to veganism, you'd think he'd have moved past the absolute most elementary arguments by now, I think he is just genuinely stupid
Also "forced to eat"? Only children complain to be forced to do something. Seems so odd to be both delicate and childish when your diet comes from such a gross exploitation...
i' have been watching tthis channel for years, and turned vegan 6 months agoe, yeah i know it took me a while. but thank you for sharing all the facts with us.
Better late than never to do the right thing. We are all kept intentionally in the dark by traditions habits and conditioning. Adverts and the promoting of meat dairy and eggs are vile and corrupt. We must find our own right and true path in life no matter how long it takes. Better to follow our own conscience than the crowds being led into lies and following in the wrong direction. I have been vegan for nearly 13 yrs and at my personal best at nearly 69 yrs of age. When we find the truth in life its hard to ignore when we have a fully developed conscience.
Ed, you deserve an award for keeping composure in front of these absolute insane idi*ts. It is quite frankly amazing to watch you deal with these people and NEVER get angry. Never stop, please.
Before the animal rights I was disgusted with just how filthy it is, and people put that in their mouths. I'm not even close to a germaphobe, I'm rather a filthy mess if left on my own, I just don't understand putting animals pumped up on antibiobitics to keep them from dying from all the diseases running around in factory farms, wading around in their own excrement, its disgusting, would anyone go hunting in the sewers for dinner? Of course not.
@@Johny40Se7en Haha, I'm not quite at 30 yrs yet but as you get older your friends start getting sick from diet related diseases and they start dying while you just keep on. a friend of mine died in 2023 what was always doing the "i would never give up bacon" to me, I never once proselytized, it was her business, she lived on pain killers for a couple decades, and i'm really not trying to sound superior but I had some chronic pain before stopped meat and diary at about 40, and tried to share that experience. It was really the strangest part I felt so much better after, didn't really expect that.
Why meat eaters always get bent out of shape for calling vegan sausage a sausage? Why they have no problem to call a cow "veal" or a pig "pork" and "bacon", argue that too then. 🙄
I think you're missing something. The issue with "vegan sausage" is that a sausage is thought of as with meat, ergo, a vegan sausage can't exist. Although I eat meat, I don't get the problem though. My dad was bitching about this exact thing not too long ago, even though it's obviously just a question of marketing. "rolled plants and chemicals" simply doesn't sound as good.
@@LoveToSpootch sausage is just a shape that the meat was formed in. Why can't a vegan one exists? Many things didn't exist until they've been invented, so I don't see the problem. Shall we trip about people calling electric cars "cars", because they can't exist - cars run on gasoline, but electric is not a car, call it something else?! 🤷🏼♀️
That Ed contradicts himself, all the chemicals put into meat when vegetables are all cropped sprayed apples ,oranges and lemons are injected with all sorts to make them last longer on supermarket shelves, so Ed is whistling in the dark the idiot and sounds like he,s in early stages of dementia which you get on a vegan diet 😂😂😂😂
Wow, Mike Parry was so energetic when he opened his mouth, I thought he was going to come up with some groundbreaking argument against veganism. And after hours of research, Mike came on the show to attack veganism with "Protein Tho'". Nice one, Mike! Never heard of that one before.
He was on Jeremy Vine show and was given two sausage sandwiches to taste. He said the first one was really horrible but the second one was really nice and meaty. But they were both vegan😅
@@ShrivelledHeartSoftwarewell, not necessarily, right? No one is forcing anyone to eat meat substitutes. It's simply an option for those that want that similar taste while giving mercy to the animals. If we learned cabbage was equally detrimental to animals/health/the planet, I'd guess Ed would choose the alternative cabbage too. It's a thought provoking angle though!
You'd have thought the the specimen of health on the left would have learnt his lesson when he though a vegan sausage was a real sausage and it tasted amazing. Obviously he was very embarrassed when he found out it was a vegan sausage, yet he still felt the need to embarrass himself further on this show
Agreed but if I could offer my two cents I would avoid using the word misinformation. it's so charged nowadays that bringing it up turns the whole thing political and that just kills any attempt of persuasion
People should be able to choose their own diet. Nobody should criticize anyone else's diet. People have been eating meat since the beginning of time. If people choose to be vegan that's their choice. Nobody should try to force dietary restrictions onto anyone else.
The guy actually suffered heart failure at one point, so you'd have thought hed have taken a long hard look at all that saturated fat he was eating, guess not though, seems the body needs that stuff (according to him) 😏
I literally laughed out loud at that guy Mike Parry giving us nutrition advice about the body needing animal flesh to stay healthy, I mean the guy has (literally) already had heart failure and he's morbidly obese even now and he's telling us not to eat a plant based diet? 😂 You couldn't make it up. And of course, if you didn't already know, on the Jeremy Vine show he wasn't able to distinguish a vegan sausage from an animal one which was truly priceless 😂😂🤣
@@EuroMIX2He claimed to be an expert on sausages. He described the second ( Vegan) sausage as lucious, like the one he had this morning. "I can taste the meat" are his exact words. When he found out it was vegan, his tastebuds suddenly changed their mind and it tasted like cardboard.
@@SuperVegasvince That's hilarious, thank you. The "vegan food paradox" in action; it's simultaneously the most delicious and disgusting thing depending on if they know it's vegan.
Then, just don't argue and mind your own business, that's it. If you are actually vegan by the mean of not killing animals for consumption, than ok. It's fine, it's a preference, a value. If you really want to a big push in the good direction for meat consumers to actually not kill animals. Then create something, meat produces in a lab or something like that is AT EVERYTHING EQUAL to MEAT and then maybe they will change their mind and eat THAT thing instead of killing animals. If not, just mind your own business and move on things that make you feel good and happy.
@@reesalternateuniversethere is nothing nutritious about vegan food. Around 15% is is digested by the body. The magical ruminant animals convert vegetation FOR US to eat. The wonderful food chain.
I reckon I would have popped a blood vessel by now 😅 This conversation got my blood pressure so high that being plant based is literally the only thing keeping me alive rn 😆
So very happy and lucky to have you leading the change towards health, Mon Ami. You are well articulated, and quick to debate and open the minds that are still stuck and locked
I’m a meat eater exploring this. You came across as considered and well informed. The other panelist’s were shocking. Sounded like low level pub chatter. Much to consider. Cost is an issue as I have 2 twin girls. Thanks.
Thanks for being open minded! Cost is not an issue. If you can afford to feed a family as a non-vegan, you can do so as a vegan...vegans do not earn more money than non-vegans, and all the cheapest foods in the world are plant foods.
What helped me was searching for my favorite meals (but the vegan version) on UA-cam. For instance, spaghetti and meatballs (vegan version). That alone inspired me to try one dish. One dish turned into two, two into three and…the rest is history 💚 it’s truly a wonderful community to be included in - I wish you the best.
This is quite possibly one of the most infuriating and mind-bogglingly stupid interviews I’ve ever watched. Thank you and I’m sorry Ed for dealing with this.
That said, I think it was absolutely clear that Ed responded and knocked down every last argument that they raised and did so in a very convincing way in spite of their outward hostility against his position. Easily felt like Ed was on the "winning" side both logically and rhetorically speaking.
@@allanhernandez6692in our eyes yes. In other ppls eyes it sounded like William has a point with the protein and the fake vegetables. The majority still cling to any argument against veganism even if it's false. The other week someone said to me that 90% of vegetarians (she meant both veg and vegans) aren't healthy. I asked where she got that stat from. She said "I just believe it to be that way"
I’ve never seen a group of such immature adults in my life. Ed, you have so much decorum and handle yourself beautifully. Thank you for all you do. Mum would be so so proud of you! Xx
Three people interrupting Ed with the silliest irrational arguments and attacks, and Ed still managed the situation like an absolute champion! Thanks for all you are doing for animals!
I have to add, that is absolutely the best performance on a GB news show that wasn't accepting their favoured position, by anyone that I have seen. Well done Ed. Excellent.
Hi Ed, I recently moved to the welsh mountains to start a homestead. My plan was to farm animals. Whilst the paperwork was going through I discovered veganism and nothing in life has made more sense to me. It’s gonna be interesting to see what I do now. Thanks for the inspiration Ed. I’ll document it on my channel. If ever you’re in wales feel free to drop by ❤️🌱🥒🍉
Sounds amazing. All the best with your journey. I will definitely follow. If you have land you should use it to rescue animals. They deserve to live their lives in full.
Straight off the bat - an EATING DISORDER?! And then it’s never mentioned again. I wish Ed had the opportunity to shut that one down but they hardly gave him the chance to fully respond to any of their lame argumentative pokes.
Geez, they are all pouncing on you with the most basic vegan questions that have been answered a billion times now. As always, congrats on keeping your cool, Ed!
Ed's super power is patience, so great to see you staying composed whilst 3 people were essentially ganging up and trying to bully the vegan. Thanks for all you do for the animals, and for our collective vegan sanity
I thought the individual debating Ed would ask a compelling question, then proceeds to ask, "But what about protein?" How these individuals end up having successful television careers is baffling.
You have no idea how happy and proud it makes me to know that there are people like you giving voice and educating about such an important cause Ed. Thank you very much, your contribution literally saves lifes 🐖❤️
Ed you’re the best. They were really out to get you in this and you stood your ground so well and countered all their points so effectively. Ty so much for everything you do.
Meat consumption is at record lows in multiple countries and yet this starts off with saying that veganism is dwindling? What the hell are these guys on about? How you didn't shout at them for 5 minutes straight is beyond me 😄 EDIT: Gods, these people are unbearable. I would've had a crying fit trying to talk to them.
Meat consumption being at record lows doesn’t actually suggest anything about vegan numbers, since being vegan is not just about meat. Meat consumption being at record lows certainly suggests there are either more vegetarians or more meat eaters who are opting to reduce meat intake in favour of more plant based food. It doesn’t really indicate anything about actual vegan numbers though.
the thing is it's almost like they're merely representing those whom need to hear their own bs shot down. they're playing their role toward progress whether it's all genuine, an act, or more likely of course, a mix of both.
@@seitan8386 Yes Bill Gates is developing lab grown meat. That'll be the next stage you're sold in 15yrs time. This ''argument'' is staged, as the agenda is to get the proles off meat and a nourishing diet. Or do you think the elite WEF royalty etc will give up meat to save the planet? You're being sold a con, and Ed's the actor is part of it.
@@maxmcintyre5068 No, you failed. There's still hope though if you're willing to self reflect & realise you might hold conflicting beliefs about animals. It's not easy though (been there) so I assume you'll probably just continue feeling guilty & trying to deflect your uncomfortable feelings. Hope I'm wrong though. It's not your fault you've been conditioned
Ed, you did a great job staying on topic, following up on points and avoiding their attempts to shut you up with their (not so) funny quips. A lot can be learned about advocating with the media here.
@carstenaltena Lol vegan athletes 🤣 😂 a few perhaps funny though all these sporting clubs have billions and nutrionest ect and don't advise a vegan diet
This is why it’s so hard to debate people. I’m pretty sure they never listened to you and considered your points, they just kept trying to think of more points of their own.
Ed, you did absolutely amazing! Given the situation and their silly arguments and questions, and then they would cut you off mid-explanation. I think the people watching at home definitely heard some valuable tidbits from you that you were able to successfully convey through all that chaos of an interview. Well done.
Oh my godness!! You have the greatest patience in this entire world! ED FOR PRESIDENT! Having angry old men agitatedly screaming illogical, irrational things right at me, AND interrupting me, would have me SCREAMING in tears, hahah! SO freakin' rude! Thanks for being a voice for all the animals and a great inspiration for us like-minded! Love!
Angry old man here! Thought Ed was brilliant! Wiped the floor (with animal friendly cleaner Obvs!!) against stupid butcher. Main stream telly should see more of Ed. He is a class act. Except it's not an act, it is clearly heartfelt, and importantly, genuine. Pip Pip.
Enormous respect and hats off for Ed his patience. The ignorance of these people is annoying. It is not a secret anymore that a plantbased diet and vegan lifestyle are the best for animals, humans and the planet.. But talking with people like this is like talking to a brick wall..
I am always stunned, how ill prepared reporters are for these interviews with Ed. They obviously have not seriously worked thru scientific information to prepare the questions. They speak from the top of their heads and demonstrate an ignorance and entitlement that's unthinkable in serious journalism. Ed, you are soooo incredibly patient! Thank you for your work.❤
Just coming back from @Hamstarist channel's debate of @vgnbooty Tash, Jack versus carnivores, farmers and a slew of misinformation and gaslighting in the comments by animal abuse advocates, it's a stark contrast how well-educated, logical, powerful, and wonderful the vegan community is. 🐥🕊🌿 I just hope and believe, that those very people who argued tooth and nail to defend animal exploitation in the modern, civilized world where we have ample choices, will look back one day how irrational they had once been. ⚖️ Excellent job as always, Ed! ❤️🔥 Your patience, calm, and respect are unearthly.
Right now I’m like “Surely this panel was staged to sell the book” 😂 How Ed maintains a cool, informed and coherent response to the topsy turvey ill-informed nonsense of the panel is a fabulous advert for this excellent book.❤
Damn, ed really is the absolute best at keeping his cool in situations like this. And he is able to counter every single argument they can throw at him. He is an inspiration.

@nebulaaah that Mike is an absolute t**t. He even proved how good vegan sausages are, before trying to back track after being told the sausages he'd tried were vegan, yet before being told he said they were very tasty.
@@nebulaaahyes thats a new one!!
that women listen better then the other men when anyone should be change at the first it is the woman I think :)
It's so funny how they call vegans 'bullies' despite constantly interrupting you with arguments that make no sense and not letting you speak. "Fake vegetables!?" As always Ed you're a huge inspiration and it's great seeing how calm and composed you are against these people.
yeah, wtf even was that fake cabbage 'argument'? lol! sounds like something Neil DeGrasse Tyson would say
@@hannahmitchell87omg that argument actually had me rolling. Like what even
Hi Ed! Don't know if you read these... I am an English teacher and I've been using this video for the past couple of weeks to teach my students about logical fallacies and how to debate. It's been particularly useful because the vast majority of my students are meat eaters. The two adjectives used to describe you most have been 'calm' and 'prepared'... (at least a few of my students also mentioned 'handsome'!)... Both of my sons are already vegan and I have been trying for their sakes... Now that I've watched several more of your videos, I can't eat meat anymore. I think the truth of the thing is that the only honest answer for eating meat if you're educated, is that your pleasure outweighs the rights of animals to survive... all other arguments fall apart. I can't do it... I get more pleasure from allowing animals to live.
Good for you just don't try to force me to be a vegan 😂😂 i love meat that's they were given to us by God as food
@@rugbystories3344 Nobody is forcing you. And God also gave us rocks, do you eat them? God also gave us empathy and intelligence. Meat eating is a choice, sure... plenty of immoral choices we can make. Good luck.
@@theportugeeza God said specifically in the bible that we can eat animals 🤣🤣🤣, i don't know which God you believe in but clearly it's not the one i believe in so like i said you don't eat meat, good for you i do and according to the bible it's not immoral so .....
@@rugbystories3344 The Bible also says that it is a sin to shave and eat shellfish and pork. I hope you're being consistent.
@@theportugeeza 🤣🤣🤣, this is what happens when you don't have a clue about what you are speaking about and just pick quotes from random christian lesbian ticktockers (if there is anything such as lesbian chistian in the first place 🤣🤣) but lemme educate you, you are talking about Leviticus 11, what you are not aware of is that those are ceremonial laws that were meant for the isralites in that specific time of history to show they were different (God's people) and after the messiah we are no longer bind by ceremonial laws because Jesus bridged the gap between isralites and gentiles and anyone who believes in him becomes grafted into the Israel branch, so make sure you know what you are speaking about before trying to lecture me on a faith you have no clue about
Ed, you are a media master, speaking eloquently and addressing multiple points while staying resolutely on message. Thank you.
I've been vegan almost 6 and a half years. And I cannot fathom how Earthling Ed keeps putting up with these ignorant buffoons.
Kudos and much respect to him.
@@justinh2701 oh here you are again, so angry, seriously it's an addiction, get over it, you're being irrational.
Isn’t it kudos? I’ve never seen it spelled with a C.
For sure though, I almost want to dislike this video because they barely listened to Ed.
Be careful not to trip on your hippie hair Jessie.
I think with experience, you learn to look beyond people's gut reactions to veganism and understand that you yourself were probably in a similar position as them at some point. At 6 years, I was still what people would call "somewhat militant" with my veganism and angry at people. But now at 13 years, I've always found the "live by example" and argue calmly is much more productive as it makes people see you less as an adversary. Ed seems to have perfected this calm and reasoned approach, which we can see has been quite successful.
@@elise3455 I can't even begin to wonder how many times you tell yourself you are right to remain convinced.
Life consumes life to create more life. Those are the rules, I did not make them up.
So you have the burden of explaining why you will shed crocodile tears over pigs and cows but insects are fine. All of these animals are sentient so what is the factor that makes a life worth moral consideration? You are making the claim, you have to support it.
Furthermore, everyone starts as a baby eating meat. So the idea that you are a heroic infallible champion for choosing plants now is a joke. You're a hypocritical narcissist.
A fake cabbage....always think I've heard them all until these kind of statements 😂😂
I was literally speechless after he said that like what the actual f*ck is he on about? Such a ridiculous statement
you have to laugh.. I mean, what else can we do? :)
It’s nice to see a debate that was calm and cordial. It would be nice to see interactions like this on American news stations.
Don't get mistaken, only calm due to Ed
“I have respect for vegans but…” that’s just a nice way of saying I don’t care about what you have to say, I’ll continue being a disingenuous animal eater because Im too comfortable with my habits
I have respect for vegans but… i was a vegetarian for some time (not vegan) and found that i was healthier and felt better eating meat. I had more energy, and feel it nourishes me much better than a plant based diet can. Everyone is different and have different dietary preferences and requirements. Stop imposing your preference onto everyone else and trying to make everyone vegan.
@@rudy8409 feelings arent evidence. The overwhelming scince demonstrates well planned plant based diets are healthier. But thats actually irrelevant becuase Veganism is about ethics, not diet. And nobody is making you go vegan, thats impossible. How about you stop putting pigs in gas chambers. Youre imposing your oppression and sexual abuse on animals
@@rudy8409and was that incredibly subjective feeling justified by any actual evidence? there's not a single reason for you to still be eating meat.
@@rudy8409What epistemic framework do you use to come to the conclusion that you’re healthier by eating meat?
@@rudy8409The most important thing is to plan. Meat is much more calorie dense than beans or tofu. Eating a healthy plant based diet necessitates eating a larger volume of whole foods, so if you ever try again, make sure you're eating the same daily calories you're used to.
People who don't have a strong enough motive to be vegan, and just do it because it's a trend or want to go on a diet, tend to not plan and then fall off, beacuse well, trends change all the time, and there's only so much time that one can "go on a diet".
But veganism is an ethical position against animal exploitation. Only those who truly feel that postion in their hearts can be motivated to act accordingly. When people say "i was vegan for a month" what they should say is "i ate a vegan compatible diet for a month". They weren't vegan, they just tried to act as one, and it's hard to try to be someone you're not.
Forcing vegans to eat fake vegetables! Thats a new one on me. Also utterly bonkers and scraping the barrel
I have no idea what point he was even trying to make there, lol. Incoherent. For someone who has had so much exposure to veganism, you'd think he'd have moved past the absolute most elementary arguments by now, I think he is just genuinely stupid
Right? Have never heard that one before either! This one goes in my book 😂
... 👏👏👏
That has to be the most bizzare argument I've heard from an anti-vegan so far, and that's really saying something...
Also "forced to eat"? Only children complain to be forced to do something. Seems so odd to be both delicate and childish when your diet comes from such a gross exploitation...
Ed constantly displays the embodiment of calm. Love the content.
This exact quality in Ed is why I've added him to my team of helpers in EMDR therapy 🥲
i' have been watching tthis channel for years, and turned vegan 6 months agoe, yeah i know it took me a while. but thank you for sharing all the facts with us.
Better late than never to do the right thing. We are all kept intentionally in the dark by traditions habits and conditioning. Adverts and the promoting of meat dairy and eggs are vile and corrupt. We must find our own right and true path in life no matter how long it takes. Better to follow our own conscience than the crowds being led into lies and following in the wrong direction. I have been vegan for nearly 13 yrs and at my personal best at nearly 69 yrs of age. When we find the truth in life its hard to ignore when we have a fully developed conscience.
Ed, you deserve an award for keeping composure in front of these absolute insane idi*ts. It is quite frankly amazing to watch you deal with these people and NEVER get angry. Never stop, please.
💯🎯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Kudos to Ed for the manner in which he calmy rips their points to shreds. His co-panelists are great examples of how bad arguments harm your cause
Calm or not , he is peddling terrible advice.
I'm stunned by the collective ignorance of the panellists. Such tired old fallacious arguments.
@@happyapple4269Are you commenting as a representative of a dietetic association?
I haven't eaten meat for over 30 years years. I am now 76 with no health
problem.. I am a vegan because of the horror of factory farms.
Before the animal rights I was disgusted with just how filthy it is, and people put that in their mouths. I'm not even close to a germaphobe, I'm rather a filthy mess if left on my own, I just don't understand putting animals pumped up on antibiobitics to keep them from dying from all the diseases running around in factory farms, wading around in their own excrement, its disgusting, would anyone go hunting in the sewers for dinner? Of course not.
30 years is almost as long as I've been alive, that's bloody awesome! 😄🙂
@@Johny40Se7en Haha, I'm not quite at 30 yrs yet but as you get older your friends start getting sick from diet related diseases and they start dying while you just keep on. a friend of mine died in 2023 what was always doing the "i would never give up bacon" to me, I never once proselytized, it was her business, she lived on pain killers for a couple decades, and i'm really not trying to sound superior but I had some chronic pain before stopped meat and diary at about 40, and tried to share that experience. It was really the strangest part I felt so much better after, didn't really expect that.
You rock, Lynne!
I haven't eaten meat in over 45 years. I regret that only went vegan around 12 years ago.
Why meat eaters always get bent out of shape for calling vegan sausage a sausage? Why they have no problem to call a cow "veal" or a pig "pork" and "bacon", argue that too then. 🙄
I think you're missing something. The issue with "vegan sausage" is that a sausage is thought of as with meat, ergo, a vegan sausage can't exist. Although I eat meat, I don't get the problem though. My dad was bitching about this exact thing not too long ago, even though it's obviously just a question of marketing. "rolled plants and chemicals" simply doesn't sound as good.
@@LoveToSpootch sausage is just a shape that the meat was formed in. Why can't a vegan one exists? Many things didn't exist until they've been invented, so I don't see the problem. Shall we trip about people calling electric cars "cars", because they can't exist - cars run on gasoline, but electric is not a car, call it something else?! 🤷🏼♀️
That Ed contradicts himself, all the chemicals put into meat when vegetables are all cropped sprayed apples ,oranges and lemons are injected with all sorts to make them last longer on supermarket shelves, so Ed is whistling in the dark the idiot and sounds like he,s in early stages of dementia which you get on a vegan diet 😂😂😂😂
When you said, " I know you are quite fond of the vegan sausage!" you killed me 😂
The best part. 💀💀💀
Loved it, too!
Wow, Mike Parry was so energetic when he opened his mouth, I thought he was going to come up with some groundbreaking argument against veganism. And after hours of research, Mike came on the show to attack veganism with "Protein Tho'". Nice one, Mike! Never heard of that one before.
That big fella seems to be getting ample protein; maybe a bit too much.
He was on Jeremy Vine show and was given two sausage sandwiches to taste. He said the first one was really horrible but the second one was really nice and meaty. But they were both vegan😅
Tbh he checkmated Ed with the “what if I made you eat a fake cabbage” argument
@@ShrivelledHeartSoftwarewell, not necessarily, right? No one is forcing anyone to eat meat substitutes. It's simply an option for those that want that similar taste while giving mercy to the animals. If we learned cabbage was equally detrimental to animals/health/the planet, I'd guess Ed would choose the alternative cabbage too. It's a thought provoking angle though!
@@callacretney3079 sorry I guess my sarcasm didn't translate into the comment 😅
These people literally have nothing but misinformation to offer.
You'd have thought the the specimen of health on the left would have learnt his lesson when he though a vegan sausage was a real sausage and it tasted amazing. Obviously he was very embarrassed when he found out it was a vegan sausage, yet he still felt the need to embarrass himself further on this show
Agreed but if I could offer my two cents I would avoid using the word misinformation. it's so charged nowadays that bringing it up turns the whole thing political and that just kills any attempt of persuasion
@@Simon-Smith.Exactly what I thought, that he looks like a specimen of health. 🙄
People should be able to choose their own diet. Nobody should criticize anyone else's diet.
People have been eating meat since the beginning of time. If people choose to be vegan that's their choice. Nobody should try to force dietary restrictions onto anyone else.
We shouldn't criticise those who choose to abuse animals, are you sure about that?@@CarlFrancis-b1c
I love that he stayed calm
mike parry is the best argument for veganism, he looks so unhealthy and is always so angry for no reason
xD The guys a total clown, I love the dig that Ed got in about when he was duped by a plant based sausage hahahaha
@@John.AR.Activismthe false cabbage was just the icing on the cake too
The guy actually suffered heart failure at one point, so you'd have thought hed have taken a long hard look at all that saturated fat he was eating, guess not though, seems the body needs that stuff (according to him) 😏
I literally laughed out loud at that guy Mike Parry giving us nutrition advice about the body needing animal flesh to stay healthy, I mean the guy has (literally) already had heart failure and he's morbidly obese even now and he's telling us not to eat a plant based diet? 😂 You couldn't make it up. And of course, if you didn't already know, on the Jeremy Vine show he wasn't able to distinguish a vegan sausage from an animal one which was truly priceless 😂😂🤣
Out of curiosity, did he state that he could beforehand?
@@EuroMIX2He claimed to be an expert on sausages. He described the second ( Vegan) sausage as lucious, like the one he had this morning. "I can taste the meat" are his exact words. When he found out it was vegan, his tastebuds suddenly changed their mind and it tasted like cardboard.
I saw that at the time, he cannot tell the difference.
@@SuperVegasvince That's hilarious, thank you. The "vegan food paradox" in action; it's simultaneously the most delicious and disgusting thing depending on if they know it's vegan.
I think he is still hurt from that haha. A true Meatflake
My soul would die arguing with meat eaters all the time. I applaud your endless patience 👏
Then, just don't argue and mind your own business, that's it. If you are actually vegan by the mean of not killing animals for consumption, than ok. It's fine, it's a preference, a value. If you really want to a big push in the good direction for meat consumers to actually not kill animals. Then create something, meat produces in a lab or something like that is AT EVERYTHING EQUAL to MEAT and then maybe they will change their mind and eat THAT thing instead of killing animals. If not, just mind your own business and move on things that make you feel good and happy.

So very happy and lucky to have you leading the change towards health, Mon Ami. You are well articulated, and quick to debate and open the minds that are still stuck and locked
I’m a meat eater exploring this. You came across as considered and well informed. The other panelist’s were shocking. Sounded like low level pub chatter. Much to consider. Cost is an issue as I have 2 twin girls.
Thanks.
Thanks for being open minded! Cost is not an issue. If you can afford to feed a family as a non-vegan, you can do so as a vegan...vegans do not earn more money than non-vegans, and all the cheapest foods in the world are plant foods.
What helped me was searching for my favorite meals (but the vegan version) on UA-cam. For instance, spaghetti and meatballs (vegan version). That alone inspired me to try one dish. One dish turned into two, two into three and…the rest is history 💚 it’s truly a wonderful community to be included in - I wish you the best.
This is quite possibly one of the most infuriating and mind-bogglingly stupid interviews I’ve ever watched. Thank you and I’m sorry Ed for dealing with this.
That said, I think it was absolutely clear that Ed responded and knocked down every last argument that they raised and did so in a very convincing way in spite of their outward hostility against his position. Easily felt like Ed was on the "winning" side both logically and rhetorically speaking.
Very true,, its painful to watch even for a few minutes such ignorance...
I can't watch it then or it will get my a-fib going.
this panel makes defending veganism look easy.
@@allanhernandez6692in our eyes yes. In other ppls eyes it sounded like William has a point with the protein and the fake vegetables. The majority still cling to any argument against veganism even if it's false.
The other week someone said to me that 90% of vegetarians (she meant both veg and vegans) aren't healthy. I asked where she got that stat from. She said "I just believe it to be that way"
I’ve never seen a group of such immature adults in my life. Ed, you have so much decorum and handle yourself beautifully. Thank you for all you do. Mum would be so so proud of you! Xx
Ikr? It was a show of low level meat addicted freaks!😂
They remind me of American congressmen.
Two perfect examples of what prevents people from rationalizing vegan arguments. The older dude being immature and the host being frivolous.
Aw ed the way you were just so calm and held your composure was just brilliant well done 💚💚
Three people interrupting Ed with the silliest irrational arguments and attacks, and Ed still managed the situation like an absolute champion!
Thanks for all you are doing for animals!
"protein comes from meat" 🙄

i lterally had to stop watching there. people so confidently ignorant just shouting litteral nonsense
I had to pause the video like 8 times to lough or react. The were so ignorant its crazy@@lukasmadrid1945
Oh dear.
I instantly paused at that moment thinking "you have got to be kidding me", and went straight into the comment section.
How you stay calm in those situations is beyond me. Amazing work Ed.
He's beyond beef
Props to you Ed for not rolling your eyes once at the other panelists.
I have to add, that is absolutely the best performance on a GB news show that wasn't accepting their favoured position, by anyone that I have seen. Well done Ed. Excellent.
Hi Ed, I recently moved to the welsh mountains to start a homestead. My plan was to farm animals. Whilst the paperwork was going through I discovered veganism and nothing in life has made more sense to me. It’s gonna be interesting to see what I do now. Thanks for the inspiration Ed. I’ll document it on my channel. If ever you’re in wales feel free to drop by ❤️🌱🥒🍉
I am from Wales and I'm very interested in your homestead journey! 🥰 I'll follow you to keep up with you ❤

Straight off the bat - an EATING DISORDER?! And then it’s never mentioned again. I wish Ed had the opportunity to shut that one down but they hardly gave him the chance to fully respond to any of their lame argumentative pokes.
Eating animal products is a MORAL DISORDER.
Ed cited the many expert organizations around the world who endorse a vegan compatible diet, so he did shut it down indirectly.
That's GBN for you. They are the Fox News of the UK, owned by the same guy iirc.
Geez, they are all pouncing on you with the most basic vegan questions that have been answered a billion times now. As always, congrats on keeping your cool, Ed!
You, Sir, are a BEAST of critical thinking AND civility. And of course, you did win against those three, seemed effortless too.
Ed's super power is patience, so great to see you staying composed whilst 3 people were essentially ganging up and trying to bully the vegan. Thanks for all you do for the animals, and for our collective vegan sanity
How you keep your cool is just outstanding Ed, absolutly brilliant!
I thought the individual debating Ed would ask a compelling question, then proceeds to ask, "But what about protein?" How these individuals end up having successful television careers is baffling.
They consistently talk over him and he stays respectful the entire time. Wow, what a person. Incredible.
Because their all Ego and Disrespect
Outstanding performance under pressure and whilst being outnumbered, Ed!!
You have no idea how happy and proud it makes me to know that there are people like you giving voice and educating about such an important cause Ed. Thank you very much, your contribution literally saves lifes 🐖❤️
Nobody in that panel stood a chance against Ed
Respect. Thank you for what you are doing and represent brother. 🙏💚🌱🍃
A masterclass in debating people who clearly find facts so inconvenient they ignore them and try to shout you down instead. Great work 💪🌱
Ed you’re the best. They were really out to get you in this and you stood your ground so well and countered all their points so effectively. Ty so much for everything you do.
Meat consumption is at record lows in multiple countries and yet this starts off with saying that veganism is dwindling? What the hell are these guys on about?
How you didn't shout at them for 5 minutes straight is beyond me 😄
EDIT: Gods, these people are unbearable. I would've had a crying fit trying to talk to them.
Same, mate. Same!
Well, that's why you're a saint of swords, not words! Sorry, I had to. I'll show myself out. But same, tho 😊🙈
Meat consumption being at record lows doesn’t actually suggest anything about vegan numbers, since being vegan is not just about meat.
Meat consumption being at record lows certainly suggests there are either more vegetarians or more meat eaters who are opting to reduce meat intake in favour of more plant based food.
It doesn’t really indicate anything about actual vegan numbers though.
Genuine legend. Thank you for existing Ed.
Incredible ability to remain calm. Just facts. These people put so little thought into their counter arguments.
Right. Just poor, incorrect facts.

Just coming back from @Hamstarist channel's debate of @vgnbooty Tash, Jack versus carnivores, farmers and a slew of misinformation and gaslighting in the comments by animal abuse advocates, it's a stark contrast how well-educated, logical, powerful, and wonderful the vegan community is. 🐥🕊🌿 I just hope and believe, that those very people who argued tooth and nail to defend animal exploitation in the modern, civilized world where we have ample choices, will look back one day how irrational they had once been. ⚖️ Excellent job as always, Ed! ❤️🔥 Your patience, calm, and respect are unearthly.
for the life of me i do not understand how you can keep your calm through all of this. well done Ed, you are a saint
