Well, carrion would be vegan, no?
If that animal was to die of natural causes, like sickness, lightning strike, old age, heart attack, etc. it could be considered vegan

Some do consider it vegan, same as the "freegan" subset. There's even at least one influencer who is a bit infamous for it But there's also a few problems with this line of reasoning. It still normalizes the idea of the consumption of animal products, so it's a slippery slope at best. It's also not scalable, as soon as probably even a modest proportion of people would adopt such a diet, demand would quickly start to surpass supply which would incentivise the artificial production of more road kill.
And then there's just the why? of it. Like if we're talking about extreme situations like starvation and poverty where there is literally no other choice, okay that would make sense. But otherwise, what is so wrong with eating plants that someone would go out of their way to eat carrion instead? With the likely putrefaction involved we are talking about literal self harm to avoid eating some good ol grains and beans.
normalizes the idea of the consumption of animal products
Consumption of animal products is normal. For thousands of years.
Is that how it works? In that case I have some business ideas ...
You're a bit late to the party, there's an entire subculture already.
I was thinking bigger. Like, when some farmer wants to sell vegan beef, they could hire a company and they would discreetly supply accidents and natural causes for the farm.
As a vegan I actually don’t want it to taste exactly like meat — that’s just creepy and gross.
creepy and gross.
We are talking burger here, not your genitals.
One has severe and immediate ecological implications. Like 'next few hours' immediate.
Same. Plant-forward veggie burgers are great. Seitan is a revelation.

Made with 100℅ real vegetarians!
Well technically they're right about this.
Cow eat grass, and grass is a vegetation. Cow can turn grass into meat, so technically beef is vegetarian meat.

Bruh, that's just cringe. Why is people's diet a part of the culture war?
Because the animal ag industries are some of the biggest sponsors of the republican party. Eating animal products is a great way to directly support fascism.
Well that's unfortunate.
