In a recent post on Reddit‘s AITA (Am I the Asshole) forum, a woman shared her dilemma about hosting Thanksgiving and whether she was wrong for refusing to cook an entirely vegetarian meal.
The poster (31F) and her brother, Mark (35M), have a history of clashing over his militant veganism.
Things took a tense turn when Mark, who became increasingly passionate about veganism after college, and his influencer girlfriend, Pam, demanded that the entire Thanksgiving dinner be meat-free. Mark and Pam went as far as saying they wouldn’t attend if any meat was served.
The situation is complicated by the fact that their mother is dealing with health issues, making family time more precious. However, the poster argues that the traditional meal, including turkey, is important to her and that there would still be vegetarian options for them.
Will this be the Thanksgiving disaster everyone expects? Read on to find out how this family drama unfolds.
