As a vegan I feel locked out and culturally abandoned. I'm sitting at home and it's just canjeero and black tea, I go to a restaurant and the waiter asks if I want suqaar, dheylo or calooley with a side of beer gheel. I ask for anything excluding meat, they either kick me out or offer some plain canjeero, great more canjeero, I say "what do I eat with this canjeero?" and they bring out my worst nightmare. The white soup from boiled meat
I know meat is at the forefront of most cultural cuisines, but why must we make it our entire personality. Take a look at Kenyans, so ruthlessly feral they throw away zero parts, you'll see them serving testicles, brains and chicken feet, they chow down on everything. Ethiopians love meat so much they can't wait for it to cook and devour raw, Yet both groups offer significantly better vegan options than Somalis. I might've starved to death without them.
