// BINGO!//

Have you ever wanted to have a handy dandy sheet of paper that would help you navigate those conversations? You know, the ones you have with “funny” omnivores? The ones where you wish you had a handy dandy sheet of paper to hold up in front of their faces and then punch them through a la three stooges? Well, friend, your wait is over - that sheet of paper is here. I give you Defensive Omnivore Bingo! The vegan answer to omni “gotcha” journalism!

Brian VanderVeen is the mastermind behind the Defensive Omnivore Bingo Card that’s been sweeping the vegan internet. He also writes, cooks, and photographs for his Veganachronism blog. He got the idea for the bingo card after one too many conversations about the annoying things meat eaters say to us vegans. It’s one of those things that’s so genius I’m actually really mad that I didn’t think it up myself first. I’m looking forward to printing out a billion copies and smugly daubing away and smiling next time some meat eater asks me “what about the poor plants, huh?” Alternately, I’d love to make it into a t-shirt and carry around a blood-red bingo dauber so that I could perform snarky performance art by daubing my own chest with each stupid question. Either way, give your props to Brian, and pass the image on! Oh, and somebody make me a t-shirt, would you?
