I find vegan cooking to be easier, but I'm not a vegan and will eat meat at restaurants or if someone else cooks, or at least cuts the meat which is a total pain in the ass and leaves packaging that makes the garbage stink like nothing else.

The bitching is universal though. I used to take my dad's home cooked food to school and one that got the most questions was the spicy tofu and pork. I could call it literally 'tofu and pork' and people would ask if im vegan and if that's why I'm not muscular at all etc.
