Vegan Bawls Her Eyes Out After Ending 14-Year Diet by Trying a Juicy Steak for the First Time: ‘It’s So Good!’
She bit into meat then burst into tears.
A piece of steak has apparently moved a practicing vegan to tears. Content creator @lovesooofficial shared on her TikTok account a video of her eating a bite of juicy steak after 14 years of veganism.
In the video, lovesooofficial was accompanied by her beau as the pair cooked a thick NY strip steak, which appeared to be seasoned with salt and pepper, alongside several cloves of garlic. While the couple waited for the steak to cook, lovesooofficial expressed her nervousness at finally getting to try meat: “Today is the day. I’m so scared.”
Before taking a bite of her steak, lovesooofficial held up her fork and appeared to be shaking from the nervousness and emotion. She claimed that, in the past, people always had something negative to say about her due to her simply being a vegan.
Vegan scarfs down her entire steak
When lovesooofficial finally bit into her steak, the content creator burst into tears and praised the steak’s deliciousness. “It tastes so good!” she said. She complimented the steak for not being gamey after initially thinking it would taste bad, and claimed that her tofu never had any flavor like a steak’s.
This gastronomic experience has since garnered over 21.4 million views and 3.3 million likes on TikTok for the creator’s open reaction. Viewers assured lovesooofficial to not worry about her decision, as it’s not the vegans people dislike, but rather the act of forcing beliefs on others, which at times leads to severe backlash.
In her pinned video, posted three days ago, lovesooofficial explained that she abandoned veganism because she was “chasing skinny” and vegan was a part of that. She says she’s leaving “toxicity” behind and has realized that “it’s okay to be me”.
The Guardian reported that vegans who transitioned out of the lifestyle experienced abuse, threats, and intimidation due to a change in belief, so it’s not a surprise that others are hesitant to make a dietary change. One viewer left a comment saying, “As a vegan I’m disappointed… idk what your reason [was] to go vegan was but if it was for the animals.. you’ve let them down.” Others pointed out that she was never technically vegan at all, but plant-based.
On the other side, others found the TikToker’s reaction amusing and showed support for lovesooofficial’s decision instead. “If it makes you feel any better, the cow was vegan too,” one commenter said.
