That does not sound very happy to me - dreading every trip to a restaurant because you feel that you will be treated like a dog.
My statement was an intellectual construct and not a reflection of dread or unhappiness. Just expressing a desire for something better.

Restaurants are commercial operations and will serve what they can sell. If you decide to join the 2.5% you should accept that your menu choices will be very limited. Even if you manage to persuade as many people again to become vegan that would still only be 5%. Nineteen out of twenty menu items will still be off limits to you.
That's okay, I still enjoy the conversation about health and longevity. They say that in order to live a long healthy life, one must have a goal. And that's my goal.
