Worst Questions At Thanksgiving Dinner & Best Answers

Posted by Mikey Quark on November 8, 2014 at 6:31am in Main Chat

I'll start us off with the Grand Champion, Greatest Hit, undisputed Queen of Questions:

"WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR PROTEIN?"

Please keep this going with either a question or possible answer(s) to other questions.

Possible answers to protein question:

Serious Answers (only possible at the beginning of meal...before frustration sets in:)

1. From plants. They have plenty.

2. From plants. We actually don't need as much as most people think.

Slightly Annoyed Answers (around mid-meal when people have begun to stare at my plate:)

1. The same place gorillas and elephants get theirs.

2. From eggplant. It's part egg.

Pure Sarcasm (after the meal when people start to "teach" me why being a vegan is wrong:)

1. I lick cows.

2. I don't get any protein. Is that bad?! What have you heard?! Am I GOING TO DIE?!?!!?!!?!?

I love this answer, and if the one who askes me is still intressted I tell him that I get it from plants and fruits, nuts and so one, because against the believe of many people, not only animal products contain proteins.

"The Protein you get from Plants is different then the protein you get from animals"

"Your correct. Animal protein must be broken down by your body into single strand ammino acids before it may then be reasembled into human protein, where as plant based protein is already broken down."

Isn't it funny watching their brains explode? "where do you get your protein" , they want to know so bad!

Hahahahaha good questions, so many funny answers!!

1. Serious: From food.

2. Slightly Annoyed: I don't eat protein.

3. Purely sarcastic: Every morning I slap myself in the face with a piece of steak -OR- I bathe in yogurt and chicken wing puree, you absorb protein better through your pores.
