      I’m past the temptation phase lol, but nice try.

      I do still cheat once in a while, but it’s mostly just with like pizza toppings. If we’re getting pizza, I’m not going to rock the boat and request something special or pick off the pepperoni.

        I am well past temptation as well, and more so in the disgust phase. But with that said, decades in at this point, I still get dreams in which I secretly regularly eat some particular meat or cheese and feel guilty/hypocritical about it in the dream. I could never see myself actually being tempted to do that in reality, so it’s more funny than anything.

          About the only thing I really still have cravings for is steak. That’s mostly because I haven’t found (or there doesn’t exist) a good substitute for that. The Beyond Steak are just like steak shavings. They’re good, especially with eggs (cage free!), and other stuff, but not if I want a big steak as a main course.

          Luckily, the price of steak has kept those cravings fully in check lol

          I’m prob like 90% vegetarian these days (like I said in another comment, my cheats are mostly with pizza toppings and just not ordering anything special if I’m splitting a meal with a group). I’m not against eating animals, per se, but I am against factory farming and all the cruelty that entails. That said, I’m also lactose intolerant, so I use the dairy-free cheese which ends up making a lot of my dishes vegan lol.
