I’d be all over it, but I’d wait until I’m done breastfeeding. I don’t know if the prenatals are vegan, and I’d like to make sure I’m getting plenty of proteins while I’m manufacturing food for another human.
This may be the most lopsided Skald poll ever.
I could give up meat for a year pretty easily-- Most of the meals I make are already vegetarian (not for ethical reasons, just because meat can be inconvenient to keep around). Eggs would be mostly just a matter of reading labels carefully: For almost anything with eggs, there’s a perfectly good egg substitute. Dairy would be hardest: No cheese, and I’d have to get used to soy milk on my cereal. But for that kind of money, sure.
To all you folks mentioning Indian food, by the way, make sure there’s no dairy in it. An awful lot of Indian food contains butter, cheese, yogurt, or some other milk product.
I’d do it in an instant. It’s a lot like the way I’m currently living–rooming with vegan friends and learning how to cook vegan–only with a lot more money involved. 
I want more money. I love meat but I can do without it for a year. I’m eating vegetarian more often than not anyway. I can probably also do without eggs. But going without dairy would be annoying as hell. I need my cheese. Blue cheese, goat cheese, hard cheese, runny cheese, cumin cheese, clove cheese, parmesan, mozzarella! Plus, no coffee with loads of milk (non-dairy creamer is a non-starter).
Double the money and I’ll do it.
Phil Ivey, a well known poker player, made a bet for one million dollars to go vegetarian for a year.
He lost. Couldn’t do it.
So less money and stricter guidelines?
No. Thank you, but no.
Where’s my steak?
Clarification, Skald - this is just ME, right? My dogs and cats don’t have to go vegan, do they?
Cats are obligate carnivores; that diet would kill them. I don’t know how healthy it would be for dogs. Anyway, the chef’s only making food for you, so it’s just a matter of you not sneaking Kibbles & Bits.
By the way, according to your rules, June bugs, lobsters and squid ink are all still a-ok.
yeah, but you can’t milk those.
I’d do it for the money without the chef. Hell, I’d do it for the chef without the money.
I love meat and animal products to a ridiculous degree, but I’d love having someone cook for me even more. Not even a question: I’d do it for free if it came with a personal chef.
I’d definitely need the chef. Will the chef also cook different non-vegan meals for my family, especially the kid who can’t eat plant-based proteins? If the answer to that one is yes, then I would totally do it. (If it weren’t for that one sticky wicket where a vegan diet would kill my older daughter, we would all go vegan and like it!)
Cha-ching!
This.
Heck, I’d do it without the money or the chef! Oh, wait, too far.
More money than I make in a year?
For eating paid-for meals?
That I don’t have to prepare or procure myself?
I love meat, and I’m probably hitting up Tom’s BBQ tonight for dinner, but I’d take that challenge up instantly. I can cope with sprouts for a year, and it might do me some good for my longterm diet afterward too.
Hey, if Tom Scud and I both sign the pledge (we are married to each other), could we get $2000k and two chefs?
I went vegetarian for a couple years once just because it seemed like a good idea at the time. I’m back to my native omnivorous state now and have been for about 15 years but I could easily do it again for $100k.
Back then, I did eat dairy (no fish though) but no one was giving me a hundred grand or cooking my meals for me, either.
Hell yeah! Who wouldn’t?
Nah, in English, g before a is always pronounced as a hard g. There are actually very good rules for this - it’s a soft g before e, i, and y, except in monosyllabic words where it might be a hard g (like in go and get - gym doesn’t count because it’s short for gymnasium), but elsewhere it’s always a hard g.
The thought of giving up meat and cheese is painful. That said, I am THERE. $100g would help pay for the little guys university education.
My only personal challenge is that I travel a lot on business, and finding vegan food on the road would be tough at times until I learned where to go (does Subway have a vegan sandwich? Is their bread vegan?)
In a New York second. Granted I’m probably ordering a 32oz steak at 12:00:01 as soon as the bet’s over, but it’s the easiest $100k I’d ever make.
My only regret is that these hypothetical millionaires don’t actually exist. Or at least I don’t know any.
