Do you get judged by what you eat/don't eat?

Hi!

I don't eat a modern-day diet. I don't eat anything processed, no grains and no animal products.
Pretty much fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds and the occasional almond milk (raw spices and condiments included!)

In society eating out is a big socializing point and I find that people give me a hard time because of what I choose not to eat.

I'm not the type of person to tell someone "BE A VEGAN" just because I am. So why should they treat me like some weirdo because I don't want to go out and get wasted, and smoke a cigarette and finish it off with MacDonalds? And somehow they think this is somehow superior to my diet?

Do people judge you for what you eat/don't eat?

I do and don't as well. 


As a Vegan, I constantly have people ask me what I eat, as if I eat dirt.  I never became vegan as a diet, I feel it is more of a moral reason.  However I can't deny the amazing health benefits a vegan lifestyle has.  I usually let people vent to me about how unhealthy it is to not eat meat.  Or how there is no way I can get enough protein or calcium from not consuming animal products.  Then I just say my piece and hope the conversation never comes back up.
