What do you say when people point out that there has never been a completely vegan culture (that we know of) anywhere in the world at any point in history?
I hate being left without a comeback, but more importantly, this one kind of causes me to doubt myself sometimes. Not that I would ever give up being vegan personally, but the argument made to me was that veganism is only a nutritionally adequate possibility now that we have the means to ship various forms of produce, etc. from around the world. And that there has never been a vegan culture because it's not sustainable long-term.
What can I say to this?
