Do vegans and vegetarians criticize the diet of those who do not have access to large varieties of vegetables?
Yeah, I know you can survive without consuming any animal products. However, that wasn't always true. Humans today aren't any different from humans hundreds of years ago. Well they may be slightly different. My point is, it's only possible now because it's easy for many people to access a large variety of non-animal based foods. Hundreds of years ago, people simply did not have access to the wide range of nutrients found in various exotic vegetables. People really only had access to local vegetables. This is still the case for many people. Do the vegetarians and vegans you criticize omnivores criticize these people too? Despite the fact that an omnivorous diet is their only option? There simply is not a wide enough variety of local vegetables to satisfy all the dietary needs.
