BREAKING: New Study Reveals Vegans Do Not, In Fact, Survive Solely on Kale and Sadness

In an unprecedented turn of events, researchers at the Institute of Dietary Misconceptions (IDM) have unveiled a shocking discovery: vegans do not sustain themselves on a diet exclusively composed of kale and sadness.

Dr. Herbivore Greenleaf, the lead researcher on the project, announced the findings earlier this week. “We’ve conducted extensive studies and, contrary to popular belief, discovered that vegans actually consume a wide variety of foods,” he stated, holding up what appeared to be asparagus. “We even found evidence of enjoyment in their meals.”

Myth 1: The Protein Predicament

In a related revelation, the IDM’s report indicated that vegans are not suffering from a critical protein deficiency. “It turns out, beans, lentils, tofu, and even vegetables like broccoli contain protein,” Dr. Greenleaf explained, while flexing a surprisingly well-defined bicep. “Who knew?”

Myth 2: Taste Bud Tragedy

Further debunking misconceptions, the study revealed that vegan food is not synonymous with bland and tasteless. “Our taste test participants were astounded,” said Chef Al Fresco, a culinary expert involved in the research. “They couldn’t believe vegan mac and cheese could taste this good. Some even asked for seconds—willingly.”

Myth 3: Social Isolation Syndrome

Additionally, the IDM report addressed the myth that vegans are destined for a life of social exclusion. “Our findings suggest that vegans can and do have friends,” said sociologist Dr. Leafy Greens. “They even attend parties and enjoy meals with non-vegans without bursting into flames.”

Myth 4: Nutritional Nonsense

Another prevalent myth—that vegans are nutrient-deficient zombies—was also quashed. “With B12 supplements and a well-balanced diet, vegans are just as capable of being energetic and healthy as their omnivorous peers,” said Dr. Greenleaf, who looked remarkably lively for someone supposedly deprived of essential nutrients.

Myth 5: The Cost Conundrum

One of the most persistent myths about veganism is that it’s prohibitively expensive. “It turns out that rice, beans, and seasonal vegetables are actually some of the most affordable foods on the planet,” said financial analyst Penny Saver. “Who knew that saving the animals and your wallet could go hand in hand?”

Myth 6: The Enlighted Yogi

The IDM report also debunked the notion that all vegans are perpetually healthy, zen-like yogis. “While many choose veganism for ethical reasons, it doesn’t automatically grant them a halo of health,” stated Dr. Greenleaf. “Just because someone is vegan doesn’t mean they don’t indulge in vegan junk food from time to time.”

Public Reaction

Public reaction to these revelations has been mixed. “I always thought vegans were just hungry all the time,” said local carnivore, Joe Beefsteak. “But now, I might even try one of those…what do you call them? Vegan burgers?”

Meanwhile, the vegan community has responded with a collective sigh of relief. “It’s about time people realized we’re not just munching on celery sticks all day,” said vegan influencer, Kale Chipsworth. “Maybe now I can eat my avocado toast in peace.”

Conclusion

As the dust settles on these groundbreaking findings, one thing is clear: the myths surrounding veganism are just that—myths. So, the next time you see a vegan, remember: they’re probably not craving your steak. They’re too busy enjoying their delicious, well-balanced, and surprisingly varied meals.
