Vegan meat: Why this butchery receives death threats in Germany

- Do vegan products threaten German food culture? German cuisine is traditionally rather meat-heavy: sausage, schnitzel, roasts are among the classics. But now there are more and more vegan meat alternatives for dishes like these, which are becoming increasingly popular. We visited two vegan German butcher shops to find out why vegan meat substitutes are so polarizing.

Unacceptable no reason for death threats particularly just over food choices which aren’t forced upon you
I agree. Unacceptable.
Cool..
So you won't mind me puting up a Pigs Farm in Saudi and selling Porkchops to people then..?
Or is this where the dubble standard comes in?
(This is like Germany national dish that they make Vegan... It's a spit on the National heritages! Like Vegan Haggis! A disgrace!)
Yeah because vegans have never done that have they?
@TheFakeyCakeMaker
There are tens of millions of vegans in the world so I’m sure you could find an example of someone calling themselves a vegan, threatening someone.
The truth is though that veganism doesn’t actually have anything to say about dietary choice.
Veganism is just an ethical position against the violent exploitation of other sentient beings.
@@TheFakeyCakeMakeryes they dont force anyone into gas chambers for their food choices. And so should everyone.
I am so proud of you guys.
Wish I could taste your food
Maybe we must try something like this in South Africa
People get offended by the stupidest things
Putin should get death threats but not a butchery who saves lives and gets People some healthy food.
For real.
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated". Gandi
Let's live and let live
Like vegans do. Exactly.
Yes, just live without violently exploiting the bodies of other sentient beings when we can.
Are u letting those animals live?
Great job! I'm vegetarian, only vegetarian and vegan restaurants will survive forever, meat industry will one day come to an end because is literally unsustainable.
Exciting. I've lowered my meat intake a lot, but you can't avoid it unless you're an extremist. I've had soy chorizo and it's amazingly good.
Death threats for making meat products and also for not making meat products.
Tricky.
Well if you're going to get death threats either way you might as well make the Vegan foods and leave the innocent animals off your pans and plates... ;-)
All the best for your business!
Thanks for this story DW🙏
Vegan "butcher". lmao
Every living beings have right to live💗 if u don't agree.u have a problem
Plants are living beings, hypocrite.
"all* living beings have the right ..." or "every living being* has* the right ..."
Go vegan save animals
i call bs. if you are raising goat or sheep what greenhouse gas?
💯💯💯💯
😮🎉🎉🎉❤
dont call it wurst, call it vegan sausage
Or, call it vegan wurst.
Butthurt much?
@@sheezy2526I don't think the sausage will sell if you call it butthurt. Unless it's because you make it so spicy that it "burns going in, burns going out". That might be a marketing trick lol.
Wurst does not necessarily mean it contains meat, it's just some sort of pulp pressed into a cigar-like shape. Pea sausage (Erbswurst in German) has been around for over 100 years, it's powered pea in sausage shape. You cut a piece off of it dissolve it in water and either have pea soup or pea puree. What needs to be abandoned though are prduct names like "vegane Fleischwurst" ("vegan 'meat' sausage") and "vegan chicken wings". These make no sense because meat/chicken and vegan are of course mutually exclusive.
plants are living and sentient beings
what is left to eat? usb sticks?
There is no evolutionary reason why plants would be able to feel pain since they are not able to run away. Even if you don't believe in science, it's just logical to eat plants directly than feeding tons of them to animals first and then slaughter the animals. All in all there is less suffering if you go vegan.
Plants aren’t sentient.
If they were though that’d be a great reason to stop breeding hundreds of billions of plant eating farm animals and destroying millions of acres of rainforest each year to make room for them and the crops that feed them.
Then eating plants exclusively is better, far less plants are killed, compared to feeding plants to animals then eat the animals (btw plants are not sentient, they don't have a nervous system and brain)
Illiterate
I will stick to eating real meat
No one asked
but I'm telling@@RadicalAntifa
Yes. You will eat the bugs.
Mainly because they are a fairly common contamination in food.
I guess so@@placeholdername0000
I will stick to eating plants
soy boys no thanks
Animals k!lling meat may have contain animal cancer cell,most of pandomic cause by eating animals.personally i'll don't like give my worse nightmare to innocent animal..btw we are also an animals happened to be smart
Cancer cells from other species, even cancer cells from other humans, are harmless to you. Your body easily recognizes them as "foreign" and your immune system immediately kills them. The problem with cancer is if it grows out of your own cells and your body can't distinguish them from your own, healthy cells and thus can't fight it.
The difference for real butcheries is that they received death threats, and their stores are vandalized by vegan activists. I will pity those businesses the day they will get their storefront destroyed, their products trashed and their person assaulted. For now, it's all words, and everybody gets them when they do something new or unpopular. Even I, a rather private person, have received death threats for posting on social media.
How can you tell if a real butcher has been vandalised? They’re already full of blood and mutilated body parts, it’s hard to imagine that anything could be done to them to make them look less appealing.
Last October a local butcher put up some pretty gory decorations for halloween and I honestly didn’t notice the difference until they started taking them down.
@@jamesbyrne3033 you are going nowhere with this rhetoric. Especially with me. I grew up on a farm and I butchered and help butchered plenty of animals (chicken, rabbit, pigs, cows and goats). And yes, it’s not pretty and clean like cutting a carrot. But we don’t do it because we like it. This is because eating meat is part of the survival of the human specie.
If you don’t like it, nobody is forcing to participate in it. Eat your veggies in your corner, and let everybody else alone.
“ This is because eating meat is part of the survival of the human specie. ”
……. That’s obviously not true. It’s easy for a human to meet their nutritional needs without eating animals. There is no way that you don’t know that.
The fact is that the opposite of what you said is true. We are quickly destroying the world that we rely on for survival, just to feed humans greed for animal flesh.
No one can make you change your habits, but if you expect everyone to pretend that it’s alright for you to violently exploit the bodies of other sentient beings, when you do not need to, you are going to be disappointed.
@@xeroxyde3397 I haven't read this in forever but it got me thinking, if some people in these comment had their way (pay close attention to verse 3)...
1 Timothy 4:1-4
21st Century King James Version
4 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils,
2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron,
3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused if it be received with thanksgiving;
@@xeroxyde3397U live in a civilisation so stop dragging survival into anything. U wudnt survive a day in an African savanna.
Go vegan!
Yes, please vegans. Go!
Yeah, if you want to die slowly 😂
The same thing vegans have been doing to businesses selling meat? A little payback is nothing.
The term activist is loaded. The filming inside bad condition factory farms ,which are very common does more for the vegan movement than death threats sometimes made up to discredit the vegan movement.Peaceful demonstrations outside slaughter houses do not always make the biases media.than. The farmers have EU subsidies behind them the vegan movement just dedicated people
Bollocks. Vegans have done far worse than that and you know it. They're crazy. A lack of vitamin b12 will do that to anyone.
You’d say that because some people peacefully protest on behalf of the victims of violent exploitation and abuse, that means that it’s alright to threaten the lives of different people who own ethical businesses.
I don’t think that’s entirely logical.
That is not what I said .
1/ there is no excuse to threaten anyone with death
2/some people make up things to try to make negative publicity.
3/ where financial concerns are. The morality is sometimes questionable
4/ vegans have no financial interest just the morality of killing being bad, of everyone. Animals or human
You will find extremists in any movement. Just because there are climate terrorists and climate fascists it does not imply every on in that group is responsible. No one is blaming every single meat eating person for threats made by a few nut jobs yet you are blaming vegans for the actions of an extremist few.
Hilarious Meat is why German’s are Healthy This Guy in Ten years on a Vegan diet will look like he’s 100 Years old
... Germans* (plural, no apostrophe), and no need to capitalize almost every word.
Joe Rogan would go crazy
Well he is an anti vaxxer too so there u go
He better start adding pork😂
