An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.
Rules and miscellaneous:
- We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
- No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
- Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
- Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
- All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I'd argue that more or less every restaurant already has at least one vegan 'option', although not necessarily a good one. If they have french fries with ketchup, or bread and margarine, they already comply with a hypothetical law.
And I don't see any way to mandate "offer at least one delicious option" as that's up for debate and nothing objective.
I guess more and more restaurants are adding vegetarian and vegan options nowerdays purely because there's a demand for it. If there's a group of five looking for a restaurant where only one of the group is a vegan, most groups will pick a restaurant that caters everyone's needs. Thus, having no such option will result in less customers and less income.
It doesn't have to be delicious, but it should contain most of the essential nutrients, at least similar to the non-vegan options. "French fries with ketchup" doesn't meet this requirement.
