I don't know. I was vegan for a good 10 years and during that time met a lot of really stupid vegans. They're not the majority, but they're out there.

wait... chicken parmesan is not vegan?

Yes, and even then, I have met some amazingly smart and successful people whose lifestyle-become-creed has led them into some amazingly stupid situations. Including a few vegans.

We are all stupid at some point in our lives at some things.

What's the term? Nobel syndrome, where someone who may very well be an outright genius in their specialty is stupid in anything else. I may be stupid but at least I don't let my ego blind me just cause I'm vaguely competent at a scattering of things.

100%, I'm frequently stupid about things!

Fair point. I guess I figured at least flax seed would be a given, as even I know about it (and I'm not vegan).
