“Food preferences” is one of the few hot topics that will always remain hot for centuries to come. It is a choice and everyone should respect it. No one is supposed to laugh at someone for referring to a meat diet or a vegan diet. But it also must be understood because you have decided for yourself to be on a specific kind of diet and you happen to be at a place where your preferred food is not being served, you must not raise hell there. So, respect must be maintained from both ends, that is how it should be. Otherwise, we may see a third world war erupt on food preferences. Well, we actually kinda did in the Reddi story we have for you guys today.<\/p>\n

u\/noveganoptions<\/a> recently got engaged and threw an engagement party for family and friends. Based on what the majority of guests liked eating, she had a meat option and a fish option for food. OP’s brother just one week before the engagement party called her and requested if he could bring his girlfriend as well. She had no problem with it. What she did not know and was not told was the fact that the girlfriend is vegan…and there was no vegan option at the party. You can guess where this is going. On the main day, drama erupts as the girlfriend demands vegan food, all resulting in OP and her brother’s girlfriend going off at each other.<\/p>\n

Scroll down below to read how it all went down.<\/p>\n

1. There have been so many dramas happening on food preferences lately.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2. Don’t worry, the AITA community members will make things very clear.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3. A nice event set up to celebrate with people the couple loves.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

4. There were two food options for the guests to choose from; meat or fish.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

5. OP shared the rationale behind choosing the food options.<\/h2>\n

There were only two members in the family that OP knew of who had food restrictions, so a third food option wasn’t really looked upon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

6. OP’s brother request to bring his new girlfriend to the engagement party and chose meat as the food option. Important to note.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

7. And OP was quite fine with it.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

8. At the event when the time came to eat, the brother’s girlfriend asked for a vegan meal.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

9. The waiter politely suggested to the girlfriend a salad, roasted potatoes, and some veggies as a substitute for a proper vegan meal.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

10. The girlfriend accused the wedding managers to be discriminating for not offering a vegan meal.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

11. The girlfriend said there are many vegan people out there now and there should’ve been an option for them.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

12. OP said she had no idea about her coming to the wedding until a week ago…let alone her being vegan.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

13. OP and the girlfriend erupted in a verbal fight.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via u\/noveganoptions<\/a><\/p>\n

14. Brother and mother tell OP to apologize to his girlfriend. Confused, she leaves her fate at the hands of AITA community members.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

OP was NTA. She was uninformed, and I can bet had she known in advance about the girlfriend…or had the brother made the request with ample time to event in hand, she would’ve made arrangements to facilitate the girlfriend. But it fully seemed like the girlfriend came to the event to make a fuss, as if it was all preplanned. What an AH!<\/p>\n

Here’s what the AITA community members had to say and why:<\/h2>\n

15. The brother really did seem like the golden child.<\/h2>\n

16. The waiter was actually trying his best to facilitate the girlfriend but it seemed like she came prepared from home with the purpose to make a scene at the engagement party.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

17. She went too crazy too quickly. Just shows her intellect.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

18. Imagine the terrible impression she made in her potential in-laws’ minds.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Via Wingardiumis<\/a><\/p>\n

19. The brother definitely was an AH but his girlfriend was unlike any AH seen before.<\/h2>\n
