I feel you. My SO and I have been vegan for around 3 years now and my family (mostly my older brother, tbh) keeps trying to get us to "cheat on veganism" for some super stupid reason. The worst has been when my brother said that he's "constantly" making compromises for us in terms of food, so it'd only be fair if we did once. ๐Ÿ™„

They're/he's probably just too insecure to give it a proper shot and to admit that what they're/he's doing might be morally wrong.

My in-laws are always doing that, too. They'll even spend money on things knowing fully we wont consume them, only to pout. We have a bunch of decoritive imported goods, lol.
